6OTS Presents an Evening with Chris Shaw
OXFORD - This Saturday, February 6th, 7:30 PM, 6 On The Square (6OTS) invites you to spend an evening with Adirondack singer, songwriter and storyteller extraordinaire, Christopher Shaw. Shaw will invite you to bring your chairs in close, imagine you're in a cabin in the Adirondacks, and nestled around the fire on a winter's night. Camp songs, songs about life in the mountains, and Shaw's original songs will take you to a gentler, slower time. His stories about life in the Adirondacks - the humorous and more serene - will make you feel you are there.
Chris Shaw has toured since 1980 from the Philadelphia Folk Festival to the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and from Anchorage to Berlin. His music and stories have been seen and heard on many PBS and NPR programs.
Shaw grew up, the son of the son of a steamboat pilot in the Adirondacks, before there was an interstate that opened up that great wilderness to the throngs that enjoy it today. He learned his stories on the docks, in the hunting camps, and in the cabins of friends and relatives. He has brought those stories, in song and narrative to concert halls, coffeehouses, and audiences all over the world. Chris has nine recordings to his credit including his 1988 debut, Adirondack, which has been entered into the Library of Congress Folk Archives.
Chris' latest solo effort, Adirondack Serenade, is a celebration of the musical styles and traditions of his native Adirondack Mountains. With the exception of two traditional songs, this is a collection of Shaw penned ballads that reflect Chris’ devotion to and affection for the people of the mountains. In classic self-sufficient Adirondack style, Chris wrote, played, sang, and produced nearly every track on the recording.
Come out of the cold and feel the warm glow emanating from the musical entertainment and finely crafted storytelling by Chris Shaw. You may even want to sing along on a few songs too. Purchase tickets on-line at the discounted price of $12 until the day of the show; $15 at the door. Doors open at 6:30 PM.
Don't miss future performances: Doug & Telisha Williams on Feb. 27th, Ronny Cox (actor/musician) on March 12th; and Peppino D’Agostino on March 27th. All shows are at 7:30 PM, with doors opening at 6:30 PM. Visit the website at www.6onthesquare.org for tickets and future event information.
Have a talent? Singers, poetry readers, musicians...the next “Open Mic Night” is February 18th (and every third Thursday of each month), at 7:30 PM. Come to perform or come to listen; it’s always free admission!
6OTS is continuing to collect food items for the Oxford Food Pantry; you may drop them in the basket as you enter. The Pantry sincerely thanks the generous community for your past donations.
