Here we are, folks. It’s the turn of the season. Plaid shirts, sweaters, hoodies. October means leaves changing colors, Octoberfest beer blasts, and Halloween parties. It’s also my birthday on October 12. Here in the crisp, cool air of New England, we like to celebrate these things with outstanding live local music. With everything New England has to offer, we will all find the perfect blend of season, beverage, scary costumes, and great local tunes.

Samodivi is Vessela Stoyanova and her friends playing Balkan traditional music
October 11: Samodivi; The music of Samodivi is inspired by the haunting beauty and rhythmic intricacies of Balkan musical traditions. The repertoire includes modern interpretations of old folk songs from the Balkan peninsula, as well as original compositions using that style as an inspiration.
The ensemble features Bulgarian-born founder and composer Vessela Stoyanova on marimba, vibraphone, and the Marimba Lumina. The rest of the instrumentation for this concert will include the traditional qanun, clarinet, fiddle, and a rich array of percussion instruments, as well as upright bass. Weaving in and out of the instrumental pieces is the haunting voice of Burcu Gulec.
The Balkan region has a tumultuous history, often riddled by war and mistrust among the countries that share it, but the music that came from its people clearly shows a familial bond and shared culture dating to antiquity. Embracing the idea of music as a powerful border-defying human connector, the Samodii project often includes musicians from a wide diversity of cultures and backgrounds. This concert will include musicians from Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, Cyprus, and Chile. Doors open at 6:30pm, show at 7:30pm
We’ll play two 45min sets with intermission Theodore Parker UU Church 1859 Centre Street and 70 Corey Street); West Roxbury; Boston, Massachusetts.

The big winner was Brad Bosse from Manchester, New Hampshire with 34 gigs. First runner up was Amanda McCarthy of Londonderry, New Hampshire. Honorable mentions for having several gigs in October went to Gay Perkoski of Attleboro, Massachusetts, Yamica Peterson of Portsmouth, New Hampshire, and Ken Macy from Central, Massachusetts. That’s it for now, folks. I’ll be sure to keep an eye out for all of you when I’m out and about.
