The Capital District continues to wake up from its long winter. Guilderland has announced its free “Jammin’ at the GPAC” concert series at Tawasentha Park. Freedom Park in Scotia and Powers Park in Troy should soon be following suit. Lark Hall has announced an in-person show on their mezzanine. Putnam Place in Saratoga is booking again. Much to look forward to…Happy Easter!
Best bet: Adirondack folkster Dan Berggren performs an in-person show at Caffe Lena next Sunday. Check out “Be Safe, Be Well”, a song he wrote early on during the Covid quarantine.
