SUMMARY:PARRY LAMONT/ CROWES PASTURE
DESCRIPTION:Two acts new to the Carpe will share the evening. Ticket link on the way \nAn evening with CROWES PASTURE is both intimate and expansive\, a masterful blend of luminous harmonies\, banjo and guitar textures\, and story-driven songwriting rooted in the American folk tradition. Twice nominated as “Roots Act of the Year” by the New England Music Awards and winner of “Best Bluegrass/Country Song” at the 2024 International Acoustic Music Awards\, the New England duo has placed nearly a dozen songs in the Top 10 on the Folk Alliance International Folk Chart. \nMonique Byrne and Andy Rogovin have performed at renowned venues including Club Passim\, Shalin Liu Performance Center\, and Rockwood Music Hall\, touring extensively across the U.S.\, Canada\, and the UK. Americana Highways praised their sound as “a wholly vintage vocal parfait\,” noting the warmth and expressive depth that defines their live performances. \nNow at work on their fifth album with producer Don Mitchell of the acclaimed indie-folk band Darlingside\, Crowes Pasture continue to evolve while staying grounded in the tradition that first inspired them. Their concerts are heartfelt\, reflective\, and quietly powerful evenings of music that linger long after the final note. \nBorn beneath the wide\, wind-combed skies of a small Minnesota farming town\, PARRY LAMONT grew up surrounded by the quiet poetry of rural life—the hum of tractors across distant fields\, snowfall settling over empty roads\, and the long\, reflective silence of prairie sunsets. Though rooted in that landscape\, his path carried him through the musical crossroads of Seattle\, Chicago\, and New Orleans\, where coffeehouse stages and late-night barrooms added new color to his sound. Along the way\, he gathered stories the way some men gather scars—honestly earned and quietly carried. \nInfluenced by the plainspoken songwriting of Texas troubadours\, Lamont’s music values truth over ornament. His songs are raw\, deliberate\, and lived-in\, delivered with both gravel-road grit and a surprising tenderness. On stage\, his voice and lyrics turn personal stories into shared ground\, inviting listeners to hear their own hopes\, heartbreaks\, and hard-won humanity reflected back through the music.

SUMMARY:STONE OAK REUNION CONCERT
DESCRIPTION:Stone Oak Reunion Concert!     Ticket link follows bio.\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the late 1970s and early 1980s\, the Stone Oak Bluegrass Band crisscrossed the upper Midwest — from the Mississippi River to Lake Michigan\, from the Illinois border to the far reaches of the North Woods — delighting hundreds… thousands… perhaps even tens of thousands with their infectious blend of Bluegrass\, Newgrass\, and Western Swing. \nIn the decades since\, Stone Oak’s members have each helped shape the rich musical landscape of the Wisconsin scene. \nSims Delaney-Potthoff attended Berklee College of Music in the 1980s and has been the mandolinist and band leader of Harmonious Wail. \nTom Waslechuk has performed in numerous Madison-area groups\, including Harmonious Wail\, Full Count Jazz Band\, The Dang-Its\, and is currently with The Honey Pies. \nDoug DeRosa has long been the backbone of Honor Among Thieves and is currently fronting The Grouvin’ Brothers. \nMax Winkels has remained a vital force in the regional acoustic music community\, lending his driving rhythm and deep bluegrass sensibility to bands Sugar Bush and Old Time Nouveau.
