July 27 – Jerusalem

Aug. 3 – Lawson and Disorder Lawson and Disorder gives three exceptional musicians with diverse talents the opportunity to coalesce around a single purpose: the artful interpretation of great songs, both new and old. They perform a deliciously eclectic mix of cover tunes from the likes of The Band, Tim O'Brien, Hank Williams, and Michael Jerling, some swing standards, plus some fine Lawson originals which nicely complement the covers, both in lyrical content and musical style.

Aug. 10 – Taylor Fleming Trio
