BOSTON – Chick Singer Night (CSN) Boston is hosting a special talent showcase highlighting female singer/songwriters to be held at Johnny D’s in Somerville, Massachusetts, Thursday, June 11 at 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Tickets are $10.
The upcoming all-ages show on Thursday, June 11, 2015 will feature a talented line-up of established and emerging female artists including Diva’s Daughters Band of Concord, Valerie Giglio of Stoneham, Gay H. Sheldon of Somerville and Elisabeth Lopez of Boston. Director Jennifer Truesdale of Arlington and Co-Director Marcia J. Macres of Westford, both local musicians and music business owners, manage the Boston chapter of CSN. For more information on each performer, please visit Chick Singer Night Boston website http://www.chicksingernight.com/chapters/boston.
There will be acoustic and band performances as well as artists being backed by the incredible CSN Boston House Band made up of seasoned musicians Joe Musella on guitar, Justin Kolack on bass, Andrew Beckman on keys and Bill D’Agostino on drums. This talented band learns 15-20 songs in a short period of time and rehearses only once with the performers before the big show.
Proceeds from this biannual talent showcase will help provide music at Camp Kesem, a nationwide community, driven by passionate college student leaders, that provides free summer camps for children affected by a parent’s cancer. These programs provide what these kids need most – support, courage, empathy and fun, as they face realities no child should have to face, and take on the responsibility of caretaker at a young age. For more information on the local Camp Kesem, visit their website at http://campkesem.org/chestnuthill or watch their video trailer at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0AGIdGlOGw
In the past 10 years, CSN Boston has donated approximately $16,000 to many Boston area schools and music-related non-profit organizations, thanks to their many generous supporters. The last CSN Boston benefit show held in November 2014 raised $1,000 with proceeds donated directly to Robin Lane’s non-profit organization SongbirdSings.org, providing songwriting and recording workshops for female trauma survivors.
The June 11th showcase will be held at Johnny D’s, at 17 Holland Street, Davis Square in Somerville, MA from 7p to 9p (doors open at 5:30p).
