If you love intimate acoustic shows with fantastic musicians, this is not one to miss!

Jeffrey Gaines has been heralded for his soul-searching lyrics and his powerful live performances. With only his voice and a guitar for accompaniment, Gaines has earned a reputation as a captivating performer, entertaining his audiences worldwide. Throughout his three-decade recording career, Gaines has maintained an impressive standard for soul-searching, introspective lyrics and catchy, uplifting melodies. Since bursting on the scene with his self-titled 1992 debut album, the charismatic singer-songwriter-guitarist has built a beloved body of recordings that’s won him a large and deeply devoted international fan base. He has sold out theaters and clubs throughout North America and Europe, and has earned high respect from his peers, Gaines was featured as Special Guest on tours with Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Tracy Chapman, Stevie Nicks and Sheryl Crow, among many others. The biggest pleasure I derive from this is playing live Gaines notes. “There’s nothing more satisfying for me than a good live gig. I’m in control, but the audience can take it to a place that’s higher than I can imagine. When I show up for a live gig, I don’t need much, there’s no rider. It’s just, turn it on, let the audience in, and I’ll do the rest. It’s the best job anyone could ever have.”

Lucinda Rowe is a native of Newtown CT and an award-winning vocalist and songwriter. Known as “Newtown’s Own National Recording Artist” she went through the Newtown School system from Hawley School to the High School with a guitar over her shoulder. With heartfelt lyrics, strong and memorable melodies, and an undeniable stage presence, Lucinda has captured a grassroots following that most signed artists would die for. Lucinda’s original music has been heard on independent and commercial radio stations world-wide. She has performed with or opened for, numerous national artists including, Pat Benatar, Eddie Money, The Guess Who and Tony Bennett. Lucinda tours with her husband Mick Connolly, also a Newtown native and well-known musician and guitarist. “I am incredibly excited to share the stage with Jeffrey Gaines and am humbled to perform in my hometown of Newtown CT” said Rowe of the opportunity to perform on the Edmond Town Hall stage.
