The Lion Sisters In Concert

The Lion Sisters

Saturday, September 19, 2026, 7:30 PM

The Rose Garden Coffeehouse

Mansfield, MA

For Tickets, Click Here.

The Lion Sisters are a sibling duo from New Hampshire whose music is defined by the natural synchronicity that comes from growing up and creating together. With Josi on fiddle and vocals, and Lily on guitar and vocals, their tight harmonies and effortless onstage connection form the core of their sound and set them apart in the modern acoustic landscape.

Their music blends folk and bluegrass with Irish fiddle, vintage country, and subtle pop and rock influences, creating a style that feels both rooted and refreshingly original. Rather than fitting into a single genre, The Lion Sisters have shaped a musical identity that is distinctly their own—warm, melodic, and contemporary while honoring traditional acoustic foundations. Their debut EP, released in January 2025, consists of six original songs recorded by Nashville music producer Jim Prendergast.

Raised on a small family farm surrounded by animals and open fields, the sisters draw inspiration from the natural world and their rural upbringing. The farm remains an authentic backdrop to their creative life, adding depth to their songwriting and visual storytelling.

This past year, they performed throughout New England, at festivals such as Ossipee Valley Music Festival and Joe Val Bluegrass Festival as well as numerous concert series and coffeehouses. Supported by a close-knit family team, they bring professionalism, authenticity, and a clear artistic vision to every stage.

With their signature sister harmonies and genre-blending sound, The Lion Sisters continue to emerge as a notable new voice in today’s folk and acoustic music scene.

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.

What You Need to Know

The event is happening rain or shine under the big tent. Make sure to bring your own lawn chairs so you have a comfortable spot to kick back and enjoy the show.

Barry Goudreau’s Engine Room Rocks the M3 Rock Festival

Barry Goudreau's Engine Room

Barry Goudreau and the Engine Room had a blast at the M3 Rock Fest at the Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD.

A nice review from Parklife DC.

Barry Goudreau’s Engine Room was one of the more interesting turns of the day, mostly because the set leaned into classic-rock muscle without trying to cosplay as a tribute act in formal wear. Opening with Boston staples like “Peace of Mind,” “Smokin’,” and “Hitch a Ride” gave the room a familiar lift, but the band didn’t just coast on title recognition. “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” added a thoughtful stretch in the middle, and “A Man I’ll Never Be” always has a way of pulling a different kind of attention, the kind that quiets a crowd without making a scene of it.

Then they came back around with “Rock & Roll Band,” “More Than a Feeling,” and “Foreplay/Long Time,” which, let’s be honest, is basically a setlist loaded with gasoline and a match. They finished with “Rock and Roll,” and the whole thing had the feel of musicians who know the history, respect the history, and still want to hit it hard enough to shake the paint loose.

You can see the Engine Room on May 29 at the Blue Ocean Music Room in Sailbury, MA. Tickets here.

Karla Bonoff

Karla Bonoff, Sunday, June 14, 2026

The Regent Theatre, 7 Medford St, Arlington, MA 02474

FOR TICKETS, CLICK  HERE

 Karla Bonoff has been described as one of the finest singer/songwriters of her generation. That description is not hyperbole. Bonoff has enjoyed critical acclaim, commercial success, enduring popularity, and the unwavering respect of her peers. Karla has seen her songs become hits for Bonnie Raitt, Wynonna Judd, and Linda Ronstadt. Many of Bonoff’s ballads are classics. Karla has continued to record and tour extensively, playing sold-out shows worldwide.

Hearing Karla’s moving vocals on her rich, expressive songs is like standing beneath a sparkling waterfall–refreshing, exhilarating, and restorative. Experiencing them live can be transformative. Fans and critics agree that Bonoff’s songs, as are her recordings, are timeless.  Many prefer her versions, live with instrumentation that is clean and spare, giving Bonoff’s voice room to work its emotional magic.

“Long before Alanis and Jewel, there was a breed of singer/songwriters whose earthly anthems of soul-searching, heartache and joy touched souls in a way few can muster today.   Billboard Magazine.

Playing along, Karla will be an extraordinary guest, guitarist Nina Gerber.

Karla says, “Nina has this uncanny ability to weave an emotional tapestry throughout a song…never getting in the way of the song, but adding this incredible depth to it…Sometimes, I am just amazed at what I hear coming from her side of the stage.
