Saturday, October 11th, 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Hilary Hawke Band
1423 Albemarle Road (Albemarle Open Streets!)
Hilary
Hawke is a pillar of the New York acoustic music scene, a banjo player,
singer and teacher to many. Her band "has built its identity around
improvisation, original songwriting, and a shared reverence for
bluegrass and old-time traditions." OG is thrilled to feature HHB at
Albemarle Open Streets this Saturday!

Sometimes,
Operation Gig! concerts get canceled because the weather conditions
aren't suited to these outdoor activities. Before you go to a concert,
check the Operation Gig! website (https://www.operationgig.org/) to see if it's been canceled.
Operation Gig! provides live music performances outdoors on weekends.
The series, held on the porches of private houses in Ditmas Park,
started in
July 2020 in order to offer a venue where musicians could perform during
the COVID-19 pandemic. The series provides them with a source of income
as well as providing a safe space
for neighbors to gather to enjoy live music.
The performances are free, but the suggested $10 donation, which
goes directly to the musicians, is more than welcome. You can donate
either at the performance itself or to the
tax-deductible Operation Gig Musician Guarantee Fund on GoFundMe.
