OXFORD – Tonight at 6 p.m., start the weekend off with “Local Tastes and Local Talent”, all open to the public free of charge! From 6 to about 8 p.m. you’ll be able to sample a wide variety of professionally prepared, locally produced foods - like the Evans Farmhouse Creamery yogurt and Upstate Harvest granola – and then stay to enjoy the performers at Open Mic.

On Saturday at 7:30 p.m., 6OTS proudly presents the Jamie Notarthomas Trio. Jamie Notarthomas, well known in the central New York area, is a veteran of the independent music scene, dazzling audiences for more than a dozen years with his inspired performances and original blend of folk music with nearly any other style. Forming a “tasty” trio, Jamie brings along a bass player and percussionist.

Says the Elmira Star Gazette, “He goes from jazzy blues to funky rock to Celtic swing & back again, meeting the demands of those vocal styles while keeping his own identity intact.”
