Antje Duvekot is one of Boston’s top singer songwriters in the folk idiom. The Boston Globe writes: “Her songs feel at once fresh faced and firmly rooted, driven by the whispery sensuality of her voice. She believes in the redemptive power of the shared secret; and is utterly unafraid to mine the darkest corners of her life for songs that turn fear into resilience and isolation into community.” Antje’s music has taken her on world tours far and wide, so it seems fitting to have her for this special Earth Day celebration. Friday, April 22, from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sponsored by Millis Postal Center. www.antjeduvekot.com
Dwayne Haggins has been described as “the love child of Hank Williams and Sam Cooke” and “the John Legend of rockabilly.” An enigmatic performer, Dwayne reveals different features of his impressive voice, slowly rolling out the breadth and depth of his stylistic reach. Whether adding new subtleties to an obvious melody or interpreting a time-worn lyric, his genuine feeling shines through. A whisper of love, a groan of pain, a whoop of joy, it’s all there in his unique artistry. Lauren King opens. Friday, May 6, from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sponsored by Ferrimy Construction. https://dwaynehaggins.com/
