Passerine
Monday, June 16, 11:00 am
You will love Passerine’s unique and ever-evolving version of Americana music, which occupies a zone somewhere between modern folk, progressive bluegrass, and what is loosely called “Americana.” Founded by Singer/songwriter Carmela Pedicini (“Radio-Free Carmela and the Transmitters”) and David Brain (Dobro), they recruited violinist Sara Stovall – who has stretched her wings as a vocalist and a songwriter in her own right – and Doug Conroy (bass, vocals) – who earned his Passerine wings on their 6,000 mile “Northern Loon” tour.
Passerine has been featured on stages and festivals statewide, nationally, and internationally.
$10 requested donation for concert. Enjoy Lucky Goat coffee. Feel free to bring your lunch.
Clay Parker and Jodi James
Thursday, August 7, 11:00 am
Hailing from a small town outside of Baton Rouge, Clay and Jodi are two extraordinary artists who combined forces to create new ways to celebrate regional roots sounds while creating something markedly modern. Rolling Stone Magazine says the duo’s heady baritone and crystal bell-tone incantations makes for “mesmerizing back porch music. Prepare to be awe-struck.

Nate Currin, “Southern Troubadour Tales”
Fri, Sept 12, 11:00 am – 12:30 pm
With nearly a million miles under his belt, Nate Currin is a troubadour in the truest sense. Rooted in the Georgia red clay, his voice carries the grit and soul of the South, and his songwriting is marked by an unassuming authenticity. Nate has shared stages with some of the industry’s biggest names, had his music featured on major TV shows, and earned 5 International Music & Entertainment Awards — yet he remains a storyteller at heart, chasing genuine human connection one song, one show, one listener at a time. Nate is releasing his next album just in time for his TSC concert! Plan to attend this very intimate and special event.
Hear his music and his stories while enjoying a soulful southern meal.
$30 for performance and catered southern soulful lunch. $15 for show only. Space is limited.
