SUMMARY:Concert: "Music of the New Nation" with Ampersand\, at Knox Museum
DESCRIPTION:This concert takes place at the Knox Museum in the Oval Room! \n\n\n\nCamden Public Library is partnering with the Knox Museum to put on a concert of Revolutionary music from group Ampersand! This concert takes place during the Declaration of Independence exhibit at Camden Public Library\, but will begin at 7:00 PM\, after the last timed entry slot of the exhibit closes. \n\n\n\nAmpersand’s special Revolutionary War-era program\, “Music of the New Nation” focuses on the experience of the home front and everyday people as they faced the battle for independence. Included are songs about the stirrings of revolution; the experiences of colonists in different walks of life; songs from soldiers on both sides of the conflict; a fiddle tune written by an enslaved person\, and protest songs written at the time. \n\n\n\nThis trio of musicians brings guitar\, mandolin\, bouzouki\, hammered dulcimer\, cello\, and penny whistles to underscore rich vocal harmonies and great joy in sharing this traditional music with modern audiences.

SUMMARY:**POSTPONED** Concert: An Evening with Anna May in the Amphitheatre **POSTPONED**
DESCRIPTION:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE \n\n\n\nCamden Public Library welcomes singer/songwriter Anna May for an atmospheric folk concert on Tuesday\, August 18 at 6:00 PM in the Amphitheatre. Bring your own seating for outdoors. Picnics\, families\, dogs and dancing welcome. Free as always. Rain location inside the library. \n\n\n\nAnna May is a critically acclaimed songwriter & vocalist who strives to bring jazz elements into the format of folk. Originally from Connecticut\, before becoming a western transplant\, Anna is a singular artist whose songs bear a placelessness that lends to their timeless nature.  \n\n\n\nAnna explores both estrangement and connection while taking cues from artists like Billie Holiday\, Shawn Colvin\, Neil Young\, Mazzy Star\, Lana del Rey\, and Leonard Cohen. As a yogi\, pianist\, teacher & poet\, she masterfully blends all of her influences into her songwriting. Anna May was nominated for best Indie song of 2023 by Indie Boulevard Magazine. \n\n\n\nAnna’s most recent single Atom Bomb was premiered by Under the Radar Magazine\, featured on Holler Country’s Best of Country playlist and Ditty TV’s New Music Playlist\, and reviewed by Earmilk. Her previous release of Fireflies and Buffalo was featured by San Diego Reader and Music Connection Magazine.
