Although a cold nip remains in the air and the soil has yet to fully soften, spring has sprung. After a lengthy, snow-laden winter season we enjoy the signs of the return of warmer and, dare we say, even hot weather. This is a program to welcome in the spring.
In addition, I offer up a lengthy set from Sara Grey and Kieron Means and Red Molly. Sara and her son will be doing a house concert in Wallingford this weekend, while Red Molly appears in West Hartford.
