Our Show: The pandemic forced us to learn how to stream shows directly from the performer's studio. It has proven to be such fun that we are going to keep doing it each Tuesday night.
Attendance is free. 100% of donations go to the Artists.

Daniel Cainer is a multi award-winning songwriter, performer and broadcaster based in London but frequently touring in the US and other countries. He is a veteran of six off-Broadway runs and eighteen at the Edinburgh Fringe with his Jewish themed musical storytelling shows. Lately he has specialized in longer form storytelling songs with a unique blend of humor and pathos. His songs are a witty and insightful exploration of life, love, family and everything in between. He was nominated for a MAC Award in 2023.

Noah Zacharin is a widely acclaimed guitar master, multi-genre songwriter, and dynamic performer. Born in Montreal, Zacharin is no longer an urban dweller, splitting his time between a home by the forest near Madoc, and an off-grid cabin on the Canadian Shield. As he has begun to return to the road, he spends much time performing in the states as well. As a soloist, he has opened shows for Odetta, David Lindley, Dave Van Ronk, Jesse Winchester, Alex de Grassi, and Fairport Convention, and performed internationally in hundreds of venues from club to concert hall. He has officially showcased at BC Contact, FARM, SERFA, and SWRFA.

Nick Carter is a New England-based singer songwriter whose music has been called soulful folk and a coffee break for the soul. It’s been said he channels Harry Chapin, Jim Croce and John Gorka. His music takes you underground to subways, into attics remembering old and treasured things, to distant beaches and late-night diners, and to the tears of ink from the nib of a fountain pen. In performance, he is an animated diary, exploring emotional landscapes with a voice that audiences find both fresh and familiar. Case in point, Nick was a finalist in the 2022 Rose Garden Coffee House Performing Songwriter Competition, Mansfield, MA.

Russ Rentler discovered bluegrass in high school, which led to a life-long love of acoustic music. After college, Russ went to medical school. During his medical training, Russ continued to pursue his passion of acoustic music and picked up hammer and mountain dulcimer, fiddle, dobro, autoharp and bouzouki.
In 2016, Russ retired from medical practice. This finally allowed him to pursue his life-long dream and passion of performing original and traditional music. He counts Bob Dylan, John McCutcheon and Walt Michaels as major influences in his style. His live performances are a mix of folk, celtic and blues-inspired tunes with multiple instrument changes interspersed with his off-beat humor and wry observations about life.

Pete McDonough has been studying, performing and writing about acoustic blues for more than 45 years. His performances present a journey through Piedmont blues, Delta blues and the variety of other acoustic blues styles associated with such greats as Rev. Gary Davis, Bo Carter, Mississippi John Hurt and others.
His interest in acoustic blues music began in the 1960s while listening to the magnificent collection of 78 rpm records and Smithsonian and Folkways LPs.
Pete’s most significant influence is Woody Mann, a former student of Rev. Gary Davis and jazz legend Lenny Tristano, who he met in the mid-1970s.
Woody shared his remarkable technique, knowledge and insight and into music, and so much more, with Pete. They remain close friends some four-plus decades later.
