Marc Berger in Concert: RIDE
Marc Berger in Concert: RIDE
Musician Marc Berger performs music from his acclaimed album RIDE, exploring the myths, landscapes, and people of the American West. Join us for this free concert by an artist whose unique folk/alt-country sound has been compared to Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan. Inspired by Marc’s lifelong love affair with the American West RIDE captures the vastness and romance of the West while exploring its deep roots in the American psyche. From the haunting message and beat of “Twister” and the soul-shaking challenge of taming a wild horse in “Take it on the Chin”, to the sexy, mind-blowing, middle-of-nowhere encounter of “Time Waits For No Man” and on through seven more scenic stops, RIDE takes you on a dusty tour of the Great American Frontier. “Echoes the stark, evocative songs of Springsteen’s Nebraska, the cinematic tone of Mark Knopfler and the Lone Star alt-country charms of Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt." - Direct Current This program is supported in part by a grant from the Fall River Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.

The Mix Tape Mountain Bike Event
The Mix Tape Mountain Bike Event
Meet The Mix Tape. It's not a gravel ride. It's not a road ride. It's not a mountain bike ride. It's not a gran fondo. It's not a race. Well it is a race... if you want it to be a race. But you don't have to race. But you can totally race. So, it's kind of a gran fondo. The Mix Tape is our answer to the lack of something different down our way. We wanted something that's as challenging as you want to make it with a little bit of everything. Since we don't have many hills we had to get creative. So we designed you a 50-60 mile rolling party that covers pavement, light trails, fire roads, a little singletrack, and some challenging tech that's brief but impactful. What all of this means is that there's no perfect bike for this. On the roads you'll hate your mountain bike and when you're climbing The Ledge you'll be wishing you had it. So we feel that the perfect bike for this is the one with drop bars and the biggest tires that fit. But you decide what works for you. Just don't bring your road bike. You won't […]

Darlingside
Darlingside
Thursday, May 2, 2024 $33 Advance | $35 Day of Show Doors 7pm | Show 8pm Everything Is Alive, Darlingside’s fourth LP, marks a subtle but remarkable departure for the Boston-based quartet NPR once described as “exquisitely arranged, literary minded, baroque folk-pop.” While the album retains much of the lushness and sophistication of Extralife (2018) and Fish Pond Fish (2020), the band’s latest work decisively exposes and differentiates the individual voices of the four songwriters—a daring reinvention for a group known for ubiquitous vocal harmonies. Grappling with change both personal and universal, with quandaries domestic and existential, Everything Is Alive is an album about loss and the struggle for a semblance of redemption.
