2022 Sunset Concerts kick off June 30 | WSIU - WSIU http://dlvr.it/SR1gJh
Sunset Concert Series in September!
Our last 4 shows of the Sunset Concert Series are upon us! Every Friday in the month of September features a different band from different genres, something for everyone!!
This Friday, September 3rd features the Indie Punk Rock duo, Muddy Ruckus! Muddy Ruckus is a rock duo of “darkly inventive americana” according to the New York Music Daily. Guitarist Ryan Flaherty and drummer Erika Stahl of Portland, Maine play a grungy style of railroad indie punk blues. This stripped-down power-duo blends rootsy guitar and edgy percussion on a suitcase drum kit, and is known for a full rock band sound.
Friday, September 10th brings the return of our favorite Celtic Rock band, The American Rogues! Drawing favorable comparisons to Wolfstone, Afro Celt Sound System, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra and consistently providing performances from Grade 1 bagpipers and other world-class musicians this high-energy Canadian/American group has electrified audiences on three continents for years!
Country music takes over the Theater on Friday, September 17th with the No Shoes Nation Band! The five accomplished musicians of the No Shoes Nation Band pay tribute to Kenny Chesney’s incredible catalog of Billboard Charting hot songs from his top selling albums. The No Shoes Nation Band recreates Kenny Chesney show; playing the music you know and love. The No Shoes Nation Band brings the thrill and excitement of a Kenny Chesney concert with the same outstanding musicianship that has driven Kenny to sell out stadiums all over the country.
Last but not least, local favorite, The Starlight Honeys will close out the 2021 Sunset Concert Series. Three-part vocal harmonies define the unique sound that is the Honeys’ blend of old-time and new folk tunes.

LIVE MUSIC EVERY FRIDAY!
“One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain” – Bob Marley
Each and every Friday night through September, you can relax and enjoy live music right here at the Theater in the Wood! We had such a great turn out for our opening band, Adam Ezra Group, and are looking forward to an incredible series! The Sunset Concert Series continues this Friday with a newcomer to the Mount Washington Valley, the Duppy Conquerors! The Duppy Conquerors are dedicated to the spirit of Bob Marley’s Music. They have been making a name as the premier tribute to Bob Marley in New England. They aren’t a “tribute band” trying to look and dress like Bob Marley and The Wailers; they are musicians who respect their sound and spirit. With nearly 3/4 of their repertoire under their belts, The Duppy Conquerors are the quintessential testimonial to Bob Marley. Tickets are on sale now! Beverages and popcorn will be available for purchase at the performance and all net proceeds support Believe in Books Literacy Foundation’s Summer Bookmobile! The Bookmobile can be spotted on Tuesdays and Thursdays visiting Bartlett, North Conway, Lisbon, Littleton, and Lancaster! Make sure to check out the Bookmobile schedule and find more information about the Sunset Concert Series at www.believeinbooks.org.
