Jeff Muller presents NOLA
In late 2024, long-time Annapolis musician Jeff Muller will release his first original album in two decades. To be titled Naptown to NOLA, it will be a love letter to the two towns Jeff credits for his development as a musician.
During this special preview show, simply titled NOLA, Jeff will share the role New Orleans and its music community played in his creative growth through songs, stories, and images. Take a musical journey through life in the Crescent City, Jeff’s performances with Tricia Boutte, Allen Toussaint, and others, and so much more. Joining in the night’s fun are several incredible musicians who have become central figures in Jeff’s story: Leah Weiss (vocals, fiddle & bass), Gary Wright (vocals & guitar), Jimmy Jacobs (piano & accordion), Tom Fridrich (vocals & drums), Lakin Ducker (vocals & sax), and maybe even a surprise guest. It’s certain to be a night to remember!

ABOUT PETE MANCINI: petemancini.com
The NY songwriter Pete Mancini (Acoustic/Electric Guitars/Wurlitzer & Vocals) is an adept storyteller much the same as the late John Prine. He mines a vein that explores the fractured environment of today’s America. There are tales of a laid-off couple, a close look at the efficiency of the modern business world (Madison Avenue Blues) & character sketches. – John Apice, Americana Highways
Pete Mancini got his start as the frontman and songwriter of Butchers Blind, a critically acclaimed rock band from NYC. In 2017 he released his debut solo album Foothill Freeway, which explored the Americana influences that were a hallmark of his former band. The album garnered rave reviews from NPR, No Depression, and Newsday. His second album Flying First Class was released in 2019. Extensive tours of the East Coast, Midwest, and South followed, establishing Mancini as a national artist.
In the Summer of 2020, Mancini flew down to Dial Back Sound in Water Valley MS to begin work on his third album, Killing The Old Ways. Produced by Matt Patton (Drive By Truckers) and Bronson Tew, the 10-song collection marked a significant artistic leap forward. The album was finally released in 2022 to critical acclaim and was included on several best-of-year lists. His new EP The Commonwealth Sessions Vol. 1 is out now.
Over the years, Mancini has opened for acts such as Jimmy Webb, Los Lobos, Blues Traveler, Gin Blossoms, Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes, Cracker, Rhett Miller, Amy Helm, Larry Campbell & Theresa Williams, and Iain Matthews. Pete is also a member of The Famous Doctor Scanlon Band, which performs the music of Travis McKeveny.

Smithsonian Science in Your Backyard
Speakers: Cate Bower, Past Chair of SERC Director’s Circle & SERC Docent, and Bruce Ogden, Director’s Circle Member, Docent
About the Talk:
The Smithsonian Environmental Research Center (SERC) in Edgewater MD, may be one of the best kept secrets in Anne Arundel County. A 2,650 acre campus in the West/Rhode River watershed provides the perfect setting for the long term study of coastal ecosystems where the Air, Land and Water come together on the largest coastal estuary in the United States. For more than half a century, SERC scientists have taken on environmental issues on the Chesapeake Bay and around the world and uncovered new ways to protect the planet. Among the most pressing issues being studied are water quality, fisheries, invasive species, conservation, impacts of CO2 and Mercury, land use and climate change. Come hear highlights of SERC’s research in this session led by Cate Bower and Bruce Ogden, SERC Docents and members of the SERC Director’s Circle, who will provide insight into some of the SERC research projects and the lessons that have been learned.
About the Speakers:
Cate Bower has lived in West River since 1994; she retired in 2017 after more than 40 years of working with nonprofits. In retirement she has focused on environmental and community issues. She served as the representative for Deale, Shady Side, Churchton, West River and Galesville on Anne Arundel County’s Citizens Advisory Committee, helping create the 2040 General Development Plan and currently chairs the Region 9 committee, crafting the region’s land use plan. Cate is also the Vice Chair of the Arundel Rivers Federation, a former Chair of SERC’s Director’s Circle and a Docent at SERC.
Bruce Ogden has been sailing and cruising on the Chesapeake Bay since moving to the area from Chicago over 30 years ago. Bruce is past Commodore of the West River Sailing Club, a member of the Antique and Classic Boat Society and is the co-founder of the Maryland Maritime Heritage Foundation. His interest in the Bay led to his work with the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center where he is a Docent and serves on the Director’s Circle. Prior to retiring, Bruce enjoyed a rewarding career in technical sales, marketing and business development. Bruce and his wife enjoy living on the West River with their five old boats.

The High & Wides- 2 SHOWS 7 & 9:30 PM!
2024-05-31 19:00 - 23:00 (America/Halifax)
The High & Wides were formed in 2015, and have roots both in Baltimore and the rural Delmarva peninsula. They draw on a shared background playing straight ahead bluegrass, but weave in influences from new wave to old time to make music that evokes the era before country, bluegrass, rockabilly, western swing, and rock’n’roll broke off into separate and strictly defined genres. The band’s music imagines an alternate timeline – if instead of the electric-guitar and drums driven band format that took off in the 50s, the stringband lineup had dominated across genres of popular music in the 20th century, what would be happening now?
They have released two full-length albums of original music, 2018’s “Lifted” and 2019’s “Seven True Stories”. In March 2022 they released their first album of covers, “Blood”, which pays tribute to exemplars of the two-part “brother duet” singing style that first inspired the formation of the band.
Members are Marc Dykeman (guitar, vocals), Sam Guthridge (banjo, mandolin, vocals), Nate Grower (fiddle), and Mike Buccino (bass).
