HACKETTSTOWN, N.J. – Start the new year with Centenary Stage Company’s (CSC) Winter Thaw Music Festival.
This year, the music festival will feature concert performances by Good Co. on Jan, 11 at 8 p.m.; Judy Carmichael on Jan. 19 at 2 p.m.; TAKE3: Where Rock Meets Bach on Jan. 26 at 2 p.m.; and Gangstagrass on Feb. 1 at 8 p.m.
Seattle’s Good Co. is an electro-swing band, combining the sounds of 1920s and 30s jazz with the electronic music of today using live horns, vintage samples and funky beats to create a whole new type of dance party. Judy Carmichael is a Grammy-nominated pianist and one of the world’s leading interpreters of stride piano and swing. TAKE3: Where Rock Meets Bach brings the refinement of a rigorous classical music background and infuses it with rock-star charisma, creating pop/rock/classical fusion music for their show. Gangstagrass is a multi-racial collective of musicians; string pickers and MCs creating a shared cultural space for dialogue and connection, blending America’s rural and urban music traditions.
All performances will take place in The Sitnik Theatre of the Lackland Performing Arts Center on the campus of Centenary University at 715 Grand Avenue, Hackettstown. Ticket prices for the three concerts in January are $29.50 for adults and $15 for students of any age and children under 12. Gangstagrass tickets are $30 for all seats.
