Its always special to see one of your favorite acts on a stage…its like, a completely mind blowing experience when there is a whole host of them on a stage together collaborating, making beautiful sounds and genuinely just being totally badass. That will unfold tomorrow evening at Club Passim when not one, not two, but 7 incredibly talented artists do just that. The Grand-Lady hang will see Rachel Sumner, Aurora Birch, Deni Hlavinka, Holly McGarry, Katie Martucci, Eleanor Buckland & Isa Burke take to the stage at the legendary listening room that is Club Passim to raise money to benefit Planned Parenthood.

Rachel Sumner (Twisted Pine, Sumner & Moss) tells us the idea, “started out as a round at Passim’s campfire. that ended up being highly collaborative — much more than your average round.” And for those who didn’t catch it the first time around, the show will be full of surprises. “In this formation, we’re playing all sorts of instruments that you’d not usually see us play (woodwinds, electric things, HARMONIUMS),” she says, “It contains a killer line-up of gals from the Boston music circuit and this particular show is a benefit for an organization we all feel passionately about supporting, Planned Parenthood.”

You can and should GET YOUR TICKETS NOW, but there is more info about the show and how it came about below…in the meanwhile here’s also a couple videos of the gals performing that we have teamed up with in the past as well as one shot by our bud Sean Trischka when the original Lady Hang got together at Passim’s campfire fest and performed Anais Mitchell’s “Why We Build the Wall”.

Like many other Boston folk acts with phenomenal personnel pairings, you can trace this group’s beginnings to Club Passim’s campfire. festival. During the 2016 Memorial Day campfire., Katie Martucci of The Ladles, Isa Burke & Ellie Buckland of Lula Wiles, Aurora Birch, and Rachel Sumner of Twisted Pine came together to close out the festival (lovingly dubbed The Ultimate Lady Hang), with an “in-the-round”, wherein each brought songs, original and not, arranged for solo, duo and group settings. It was good. So good, that this was repeated for the Labor Day campfire. festival bringing Holly McGarry of Honeysuckle and Deni Hlavinka of The Western Den into the rotation for the round.

While campfire could only have five at a time, this very special show will be the first where all seven, remarkable women take the stage together, each bringing a smorgasbord of well crafted songs and piles of different instruments (in the past, all manner of guitars, fiddle, mandolin, flute, clarinets, banjos, ukuleles, and even a harmonium have graced the stage — nothing is off limits).

This is a benefit for Planned Parenthood Action, an organization each of the ladies strongly believes in and supports.
