Amalgamated Muck - the July Mini Tour
Small Town Concert Series

STCS A Muck

"Amalgamated Muck - the July Mini Tour"

 

July 8th, Thursday, 5:30 - 7:30:

Music on the Dock at the Connecticut River Museum,

67 Main Street, CT 06426, Essex  860-767-8269

 

July 9th, Friday, 9:40 PM:

 All Souls Unitarian Universalist Church, 19 Jay Street, New London 06320

(sponsored by Friday Night Folk)

19 Jay Street, New London 06320

 

Has Americana musical group Amalgamated Muck created a monster - making a minotaur out of a mini tour? You'll just have to come to one of the early July shows to find out!

 

"The Muck" or "A. Muck" as their fans affectionately call them, has taken on an ambitious three dates, all in a row. One in Ivoryton, the next in Essex, and the last in New London: there are three great opportunities to hear the powerful up-and-coming amalgamation of talent formed by Grammy-nominated songwriter and vocalist Lauren Agnelli with Rose Bengston (vocals), Matthew Male (percussion), Rodney Maxwell (guitars, vocals), and Brian Wolfe (guitar, mandolin, mandola, tipple and vocals).

 

With firm roots in vintage country, hearkening back to (and including songs by) Johnny Cash and the Carter Family, A. Muck plays old favorites and new gems alike, making an old song sound new, and a new song sound timeless!

 

As Matthew Male, co-founder and soundman, likes to say "We have five headfuls of songs, two carloads of instruments, and three great nights of music. Come listen to our songs, sit around on the green, on the dock, or in the Church, and feel good!"

 

All in all, these are nights of musical delight for all ages, so do please come on out and tell your friends to join you for the Great Amalgamated Muck July Mini Tour!
