The Jon Pousette-Dart Duo @ Mass Arts Center
Apr 12 @ 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm

Jon Pousette-Dart is best known as an American Classic and Folk Rock songwriter, musician, and performing artist. Growing up in Suffern, NY with a household of artists, including his father, grandfather, and sister, he separated himself by picking up a guitar at the age of 10 and mapping out a life in music before he ever attended a little league game. Since then it’s been a long and well-traveled road in the world of music.

A little bit of time has passed between when Jon Pousette-Dart as a teenager started forging a path in the musical landscape that started in the 60’s and laid a foundation with the original Pousette-Dart Band. Throughout the 70’s and into the 80’s the band earned a loyal national following and produced 5 releases for Capitol that made a deep imprint in the world of album radio, when we all used to only listen to vinyl. When the band parted ways, Jon continued working and slowly began navigating back to where he started writing and recording in earnest with many of Nashville’s finest, and some twenty odd years ago Jon crossed paths with Jim Chapdelaine one of the more formidable musicians he crossed paths with. Jon continued touring as their musical collaboration continued to brew into a satisfying vital musical landscape of it’s own.

Come see Jon Pousette-Dart and Jim Chapdelaine in this intimate acoustic duo setting.

James Mongomery, Paper In Fire and Crushed Velvet Outdoor Fest!

Get ready to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday with a massive party on the water. We’re taking things outside for an afternoon of music, food, and lake breezes. Our big top along the the Norton Reservoir is the place to be this summer. Join us for an unforgettable outdoor festival that will bring people together, showcasing the best of what we love about summer celebrations.

Three incredible Bands in One Day!

This outdoor festival is not just about music; it’s a gathering of friends and family enjoying the summer vibes and community spirit. First up, we’re welcoming back a local legend: James Montgomery. If you know New England music, you know James. He’s a blues powerhouse who’s played with everyone from Muddy Waters to Aerosmith. His harmonica playing is iconic, and we’re thrilled to have him back on the MAC stage, this time outdoors. As you enjoy the performances, take in the beautiful scenery of the lake, making this outdoor festival a perfect way to celebrate the season.Each band will contribute to the lively atmosphere of this outdoor festival where everyone is welcome to dance and sing along. If you love that classic “Heartland Rock” sound, you’re going to love Paper In Fire. This six-piece band is a dedicated tribute to John Mellencamp. They nail the grit and soul of hits like “Small Town” and “Jack & Diane.” They were a huge hit last summer and we’re thrilled to have them back. This outdoor festival is a chance to savor delicious food, refreshing drinks, and great company while enjoying the breathtaking views. Rounding out the bill is Crushed Velvet, a high-energy 70s rock band coming up from Providence. They specialize in the era of big guitars and FM radio classics. They don’t just play the hits; they capture that vintage vibe that makes you want to get up and move and sing-along.

Food, Drinks, and Reservoir Views

We’ll have local food trucks on-site, so come hungry. We’re also have our bar booth right outside the tent. Grab a cold drink, find a spot in the shade of the tent, or enjoy sunny views over the lake. Be sure to invite your friends and family to this outdoor festival, creating memories that you will cherish for years to come.
