O’Keefe and Mason Art Exhibit, Ramblin Jug Stompers band, and more at 6OTS
OXFORD – 6 On The Square (6OTS) will jump-start your January off right! Wednesday was the 6OTS opening reception for the O’Keefe and Mason Retrospective art exhibit. Tonight it’s the monthly 6OTS Open Mic at 7:30. Saturday will be 6OTS’ first musical show of the season with the Ramblin Jug Stompers at 7:30 p.m.
For Bob “Doc” O’Keefe his passion for photography began in his youth with a simple Brownie box-camera. As he grew older, his cameras improved as did his skills, and he developed a keen eye for photo composition. As a well seasoned traveler, Bob recorded his visual experiences through the camera’s eye capturing different countries and cultures. It is many of these photos that he will have on exhibit, as they come from his personal favorites collection.
June Mason, wife of Bob’s long time business partner in Mason O’Keefe Veterinary Associates, began painting as a way to relax and nurture her creativity. She has been inspired by her trips abroad with her mother, Florence Freud, who is also a talented amateur artist, painting scenes from photographs taken on those tours. June also loves flowers, and can be seen painting the many flowers in her garden.
Have a talent? Singers, poetry readers, musicians ... tonight is the next “Open Mic Night” (and every third Thursday of each month), at 7:30. Come to perform or come to listen; it’s always free admission!
Saturday, at 7:30, 6OTS welcomes the rousing, upbeat, Ramblin Jug Stompers; self-described as “playing 78 rpm music for the 21st century!” Their ramblin’ style nods to the great tradition of American string band music while winking directly at the classic jug bands of the 60’s folk scene. Their talents have garnered the Stompers with the distinction as being the premier Capital area jug band.
The RJS quartet features: “Bowtie” on banjo and vocals; “Cousin Clyde” on guitar, kazoo, and vocals; “Mr. Eck” on mandolin, dobro, jug, and vocals; and last, but certainly not least, “Wild Bill” on washboard, harmonica, kazoo, and vocals. Blending revival jug band styles with their original tunes, such as their patented “Appalachian calypso”, you’ll be clapping your hands, tapping your foot, and maybe even joining in on kazoos.
Purchase tickets on-line at the discounted price of $12 until the day of the show; $15 at the door. Ticket price for Students is always $2; please call to make a student reservation. Doors open at 6:30.
Upcoming performances: don’t miss “Mad Agnes’ Farewell Tour” on Jan. 29; Local Talent Night on Feb. 19; and Adirondack singer, Chris Shaw (returns) Feb. 26. All shows are at 7:30, with doors opening at 6:30. Visit the website at www.6onthesquare.org for tickets and future event information.
