Event Description

Forbes Library is delighted to present a free outdoor concert by Darlingside, String-Rock Quintet from Northampton.

Under one roof in the Pioneer Valley, Darlingside came together with five songwriters, a mandolin, a cello and violin, guitars and drums, and a chorus of voices. These five friends forged a seamless, exhilarating sound at the intersection of rock, classical, and folk music.

Darlingside traces its diverse sound to an eclectic array of musical origins: Harris picked up the cello at age six, and appeared twice on NPR with his classical piano trio. Auyon spent a year-long travel fellowship studying the traditional music and instruments of Brazil, Turkey and Ireland. Don toured nationally as a boy alto, and later worked as a singer-songwriter on sunset boat cruises in Maine. Dave began singing and arranging music in college, then spent two years learning guitar as a street musician in Boston and abroad. Sam took up drums at the age of seven and developed an intricate style that draws on his rock, celtic, and jazz backgrounds. Together, the five close friends are a powerhouse of vocal, instrumental, songwriting and performing talent. 
The concert is free and appropriate for all ages.  

Blankets, lawn chairs and/or picnics are welcome.  

Parking in the library lot is free after 6 PM.  Parking is also available  at the Smith College garage on West Street after 5 PM.

In case of bad weather, the concert will take place in the Coolidge Museum on the second floor of Forbes Library.
