The Princeton Folk Music Society presents The Tannahill Weavers

(PRINCETON, NJ) — Get ready for an evening of high energy Scottish folk-rock as The Princeton Folk Music Society presents The Tannahill Weavers on Friday, September 20, 2024 at Christ Congregation Church in Princeton. The band features a unique combination of traditional melodies, driving rhythmic accompaniment, and rich three- part vocal harmonies that make their performances unforgettable. They are noted for being the first Scottish folk group to incorporate an instrument long thought to be too loud to play nicely with other traditional folk instruments: the highland pipes.

Guster to Play Shows in Asbury Park and Camden

(CAMDEN, NJ) -- Guster is about to start the second leg of their "We Also Have Eras" Tour.

But before the second leg kicks off in January, the band will play two shows in New Jersey - The Sea Hear Now Festival in Asbury Park on September 14th and the XPoNential Music Festival in Camden on September 22nd.
