SUMMARY:Music on Centre presents Guy Davis
DESCRIPTION:Guy Davis is a two-time\, back-to-back Grammy nominee for Best Traditional Blues\, a musician\, actor\, author\, and songwriter. Guy uses a blend of roots\, blues\, folk\, rock\, rap\, spoken word\, and world music to comment on\, and address the frustrations of social injustice\, touching on historical events\, and common life struggles. His background in theater is pronounced through the lyrical storytelling of songs “God’s Gonna Make Things Over” about the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre\, “Welcome to My World”\, and “Got Your Letter In My Pocket”. His storytelling is sometimes painful\, deep\, and real\, an earthy contrast to modern-day commercial music\, meant to create thought\, underlined by gentle tones from his guitar or banjo fingerpicking. [from Guy’s website] \nAdmission is $25. Cash preferred; cards are okay. Outstanding refreshments available during intermission.

Mostly\, we form deeper connections with each other through shared meals\, play\, and the beauty of the ocean. \nBasic Ferry Beach information: \n\nHousing is in rustic wooden buildings with bunk beds and shared bathrooms. Some units have been renovated.\nThe drive takes approximately 2 – 2.5 hours.

SUMMARY:Music on Centre presents Windborne
DESCRIPTION:“The most exciting vocal group in a generation\,” Windborne’s captivating show draws on the singers’ deep roots in traditions of vocal harmony\, while the absolute uniqueness of their artistic approach brings old songs into the present. Known for the innovation of their arrangements\, their harmonies are bold and anything but predictable. \nWith a 20-year background studying polyphonic music around the world\, Lauren Breunig\, Jeremy Carter-Gordon\, Lynn Rowan\, and Will Rowan share a vibrant energy onstage with a blending of voices that can only come from decades of friendship alongside dedicated practice. The ensemble shifts effortlessly between drastically different styles of music\, drawing their audience along on a journey that spans continents and centuries\, illuminating and expanding on the profound power and variation of the human voice. \n \nBut there’s another\, crucial dimension to Windborne that guides and roots their artistry. They are adherents to folk music’s longtime alliance with social activism\, labor and civil rights\, and other movements that champion the oppressed\, the poor\, and the disenfranchised. Their songs burst with lyrics that\, while penned decades or centuries ago\, still ring true in modern times\, and Windborne’s dynamic harmonies breathe new life into these songs. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdmission is $25. Cash preferred\, but credit card payments are possible. For information or to reserve tickets\, go to musiconcentre@gmail.com. All are welcome!

SUMMARY:Film: Racially Charged: America's Misdemeanor Problem
DESCRIPTION:America’s Misdemeanor Problem exposes how our country’s history of racial injustice evolved into an enormous abuse of criminal justice power.  Thirteen million people a year — most of them poor and people of color — are abused by this system. \nThrough first-person accounts of those charged under the Black Codes of the Reconstruction era paralleled with the outrageous stories of people trapped in the system today\, the film brings to light the unfolding of a powerful engine of profits and racial inequality. With the emergence of the Black Lives Matter movement\, this film provides historical context and examines America’s history of racist oppression. \nPresented by the TPC Racial Justice Task Force. Join on Zoom.

SUMMARY:Racial Justice Task Force Film Series: "Birth of a Movement"
DESCRIPTION:Birth of a Movement brings to life Boston’s long history as a center of abolition and a force for racial equality. In 1915\, William Monroe Trotter\, a little remembered leader in the Black radical tradition\, led the struggle to ban D. W. Griffith’s notoriously racist film\, The Birth of a Nation. \nTrotter advocated mass action as a tool for racial justice\, and the protests in Boston set the stage for the modern civil rights movement. \nFeel free to invite friends. Zoom link here. \nThe Zoom theater opens at 5:15 and the film will begin at 5:30\, with a half hour of discussion afterwards. An RSVP to rjtf@tparkerchurch.org is appreciated but not essential. \nSee you at the movies!

SUMMARY:Music on Centre Presents Singer-Songwriter Kate Campbell
DESCRIPTION:Coming to us from the Mississippi Delta via Nashville\, Kate brings a memorable\, beautifully balanced evening of song and story that defies categorization\, because it is a tale of us and our country.

Over her 18-album career\, her music and songs continue to inspire and excite a growing and engaged audience.\n\n\n“Her literate songs artfully skirt the border between country and rock with a few blues twists…a major talent…simplicity\, sincerity\, and sophistication run rampant.” BOSTON GLOBE\n\n\nTickets can be reserved at musiconcentre@gmail.com or purchased at the door from 6:30 on the evening of the show. Desserts and beverages for sale before the show and during intermission. Free easy parking nearby. Masks optional. For more information\, call 617-327-0542
