My work continues this tradition while speaking to contemporary concerns about presence and interaction. I rely on formal content – the meaning extends from color relationships and mark-making\, while engaging with feminist art’s tradition of challenging hierarchical distinctions between abstract and embodied experience. \nWhile the forms in my paintings and sculpture often echo natural and floral shapes\, they deliberately play with and subvert traditionally ‘feminine’ imagery. My sinuous lines and flower-like forms are exaggerated and transformed into something more ambiguous and challenging – sometimes even unsettling. My work takes stereotypically ‘feminine’ organic shapes and makes them monumental\, unavoidable\, and slightly alien. These forms don’t politely decorate – they command space and demand engagement. \nMy recent work explores the choreography of pattern and void. The pieces float and interact like notes in a visual score\, creating rhythms through both color and shape. While I embrace traditionally ‘feminine’ colors like pink\, I deliberately disrupt their sweetness by introducing structural elements and unexpected color combinations. The negative spaces become as important as the forms themselves\, turning the white wall into an active participant in the composition. This interplay between structure and fluidity\, presence and absence\, reflects my interest in how ‘feminine’ imagery can be both acknowledged and challenged within the same piece. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n My early training in dance continues to influence how I think about space\, movement\, and the body’s relationship to its position. Each installation becomes a kind of choreographed environment where forms perform in space\, creating temporal experiences that unfold as viewers move through them. The suspended pieces in particular engage in a slow dance with gravity\, while their shadows create an ever-changing performance on walls and floors. This understanding of movement and spatial relationships informs everything from my initial drawings to final installation decisions. \nBio\nAdria Arch is a mixed media artist living and working in Arlington\, Massachusetts. She is interested in creating immersive experiences with sculpture and paint\, using hand-cut or laser-cut lightweight polystyrene plastic to create sculptural forms that populate my large-scale colorful installations. Her work references the things seen every day- from neighborhood flower gardens to the ever-growing skyline of Boston. She has a vocabulary of shapes that includes ladders\, grids\, and spirals. The installations of hanging painted sculptures are whimsical\, playful spaces that provide an experience of both delight and surprise. \nArch has had solo exhibitions at Danforth Art in Framingham\, MA\, the Art Complex Museum in Duxbury\, MA\, and the Hunt Gallery at Mary Baldwin College in Virginia. She has completed site specific murals at Lesley University’s Porter Square building in Cambridge\, MA\, Stonehill College\, and Danforth Art in Framingham\, MA. Arch has been awarded residencies at Vermont Studio Center\, Virginia Center for the Creative Arts\, Sanskriti Foundation in Delhi\, and in Auvillar\, France. Her work is included in many private and public collections including the DeCordova Sculpture Park and Museum\, Fidelity Corporation\, and the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston. In 2019 her work was featured at the Fitchburg Art Museum\, and in 2020 at the Cahoon Museum of American Art. Most recently\, Arch was commissioned by Google to do a room-sized installation. Arch showed installations at the Boston Sculptors Gallery\, Brattleboro Art Museum in Vermont and the Danforth Museum in Framingham\, MA. Her work will be on view at the San Luis Obispo Art Museum in 2025. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Images:Top: Detail\, Holding the Center 4\, 2025\, Acrylic on synthetic paper\, 8′ x 4′Right top:  Shape of Things\, 2025\, Acrylic on polystyreneRight bottom:  Holding the Center 4\, 2025\, Acrylic on synthetic paper\, 8′ x 4′ URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/airwaves-painting-and-sculpture-by-adria-arch/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Arch-detail-1920-x-1080-px.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250517T110000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250517T160000 DTSTAMP:20260416T033136 CREATED:20250509T201901Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250512T162408Z UID:18791-1747479600-1747497600@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:The 2nd Annual Lake George Block Party DESCRIPTION:Join the fun at the\nThe 2nd AnnualLake George Block Party!\n  \nVisit our Boothin the yard ofSt. James Episcopal churchon Montcalm Street.\nSpecial Guest!\nAction Painter Mark Grimaldiwill demonstrate his techniqueas he paints in the style of Jackson Pollock. \n\n \n \n \n \n  \n  URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/the-2nd-annual-lake-george-block-party/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Untitled-1920-x-1080-px-copy.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250618T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250618T210000 DTSTAMP:20260416T033136 CREATED:20250424T170916Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250618T084649Z UID:18304-1750271400-1750280400@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:The Speakeasy Cruise DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, June 18\, 2025 \nBoarding at 6:30pmCruise from 7pm – 9pmAboard Waterfront Cruises’ – Adirondac2 Kurosaka Ln\, Lake George\, NY \n \n \n \n \n \n Shhhhhhhhh……….\n… got the password?

Their multimedia artworks invite viewers to explore the visible\, hidden\, and symbolic aspects of natural beauty found in aquatic environments. Each artist expresses ideas of interconnection between organisms within ecosystems through imagery such as grids\, nets\, and repeating patterns. \nThis idea for this curated exhibition was conceived after visual artist Lauren Comito received a Community Art Grant from the Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council in 2025. The New York City and Huletts Landing-based visual artist used this grant to examine and portray copepods\, tiny crustacean zooplankton\, along with aquatic plants found in Lake George\, bringing to light the interconnected systems that contribute to the purity of the lake. \nComito enlarges the scale of these microscopic organisms through cyanotype prints\, making them visible. The images reveal the delicate and intricate structures of these tiny creatures that play an essential role in filtering and purifying the water\, elevating them to the status of “guardians of the lake.” \nMilcah Bassel\, whose work has been exhibited at the Rubin Museum of Art\, Bronx Museum of the Arts\, and other venues both nationally and internationally\, applies unique materials and processes to explore both cultural and natural structures. Her pieces in the exhibition are inspired by the use of a grid to represent water in ancient civilizations\, creating intersecting rippling patterns on unique pulp papers. \nAmanda Thackray\, who is currently the inaugural Environmental Protection Agency Artist in Residence for the lower Passaic River in New Jersey\, also utilizes grid patterns in handmade paper designs that combine notions of nature\, industry\, and human experience.

Hubby got his higher musical education started as a busker. He developed his guitar and vocal craft on the sidewalks and subway platforms of New York City\, performing material by those venerable artists whose work he was quickly absorbing. An ambitiously itinerant musician\, he took his show on the road\, playing the streets\, coffee shops\, bars\, and house parties of cities around the country. \nAfter years of busking around the U.S and making a name for himself\, Hubby became acquainted with the Carolina Chocolate Drops. He was an integral part of the Grammy award winning Carolina Chocolate Drops from 2010 to 2014. Since 2015 to 2018 he was active in touring and recording member in the Rhiannon Giddens band. He was on her album “Tomorrow Is My Turn” in 2015 and in 2017 “Freedom Highway.”  Drawing inspiration from legends such as Mississippi John Hurt\, Uncle Dave Macon and Lead Belly\, Hubby breathes new life into traditional blues and folk songs\, infusing them with his unique flair and unmistakable authenticity. His music resonates with a deep sense of history\, culture\, and struggle\, capturing the spirit of the early 20th century while adding his own distinct touch. \nIn addition to his remarkable musical talents\, Hubby Jenkins is a passionate advocate for preserving and honoring the cultural heritage of African American musicians who laid the foundation for modern popular music. His commitment to historical accuracy shines through in his performances\, as he takes us on a journey through the deep roots of blues\, folk\, and the African American experience. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n HIS MUSIC\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Hubby Jenkins playing Coo Coo Bird – Rufus Kasey’s version\n \n \n \n \n \n ​”Here Here Yonder Go” – Hubby Jenkins\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Learn More about Hubby Jenkins URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/hubby-jenkins/ LOCATION:Shepard Park\, Canada Street\, Lake George\, NY\, 12845\, United States CATEGORIES:Shepard Park,Summer Concert Series ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/2025-Summer-Concert-Series-website-events.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250706T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250706T190000 DTSTAMP:20260416T033136 CREATED:20250424T141507Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250424T141850Z UID:18158-1751806800-1751828400@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:Water Music: 1 Day\, Art Show & Sale DESCRIPTION:Water Music New York: More Voices\n1-Day Art Show + Sale\nSunday\, July 6\, 20251pm – 7pm \nThe Lake George Arts Project is bringing an exhibition of local / regional artwork to Hudson Crossing Park as part of their community-wide celebration of the arts!

By weaving together elements of the past and present\, this exhibition explores how marginalized communities\, particularly Black families\, experience and navigate the complexities of identity\, memory\, and systemic forces. My work within this exhibition\, including pieces like Brooklyn’s Paradise (2024) and an untitled piece\, draws on fragmented realities to critique and reflect on the forces that shape our lived experiences. Through these works\, I aim to invite viewers to reconsider their assumptions about space\, race\, and identity\, ultimately challenging preconceived notions around Blackness and its portrayal in the public sphere. Brooklyn’s Paradise critiques the New York subway system\, a space that is integral to urban life yet riddled with neglect and violence\, often masked by everyday mundanity. By juxtaposing distorted figures\, subway patrons\, and discarded materials within a surreal landscape\, this piece challenges viewers to confront the violence and alienation that pervade urban spaces\, calling attention to how these issues are often ignored or normalized in society. The untitled piece centers on the intersection of religion\, domestic labor\, and generational teachings\, offering a reflection on how these traditions\, passed down through the generations\, continue to influence Black identity today. Through a mix of archival imagery and color manipulation\, this work explores how faith\, labor\, and family teachings evolve in the context of modern life\, intertwining the past and present. In this way\, the untitled piece delves into how historical practices and teachings continue to shape contemporary Black experiences\, particularly within domestic and familial spheres.   \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n   Both works in this exhibition embody my artistic practice of reframing Black identity through color\, abstraction\, and inversion\, which serves to disrupt racialized perceptions and offer a more nuanced understanding of Blackness. By redefining skin tones and emotional color associations\, I challenge the viewer to move beyond fixed cultural narratives and engage with the radiant\, complex presence of Black identity. The exhibition as a whole invites reflection on how individual histories and societal systems intersect to create our understanding of identity\, space\, and memory. \nArtist Statement  \nI use visual storytelling to confront misunderstandings about my identity and community history\, dismantling entrenched perceptions through manipulated color\, layered materials\, and expressive form. Working primarily in oil paint and acetate\, I build scenes that feel both archival and futuristic—broad\, modernized brushstrokes sweep across transparent layers\, blending digital collage with painterly tactility. Skin tones are inverted or shifted into unnatural hues\, disrupting racialized expectations and inviting viewers to see Blackness not as fixed\, but as radiant\, fluid\, and otherworldly. My figures are suspended in dreamlike environments—gestural yet frozen—rendered in saturated palettes where serene blues veil violence and stark contrasts expose emotional weight. Their gazes pierce outward\, creating a participatory exchange that humanizes and implicates the viewer. Interactive elements\, such as smartphone-enabled color inversion\, deepen this engagement\, asking audiences to reconsider how perception is shaped by both technology and bias. Through abstraction\, symbolism\, and material play\, my work reclaims narrative space for Black bodies\, offering new ways of seeing and being.   URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/new-work-by-khaila-batts-perception-in-fragments-unveiling-family-through-color-and-memory/ ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Batts-website1920-x-1080-px.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250709T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250709T203000 DTSTAMP:20260416T033136 CREATED:20250513T083039Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250513T090625Z UID:18861-1752087600-1752093000@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:The Saline Fiddler's Philharmonic DESCRIPTION:Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic\nAmerica’s premier youth fiddling show band from Saline\, Michigan\, astounds audiences every time the group takes the stage. The musicians\, all from Saline High School\, present an energetic and polished show that features a diverse range of music from American folk\, fiddle\, bluegrass\, jazz\, western swing\, and Celtic traditions.  Spirited vocals and Appalachian step dancing combine with the instrumentals to create an unforgettable live performance. \nSaline Fiddlers Philharmonic began in 1994 with a simple idea: introduce an alternative style of music education to public school students to maintain and expand their interest in music performance.  Since then\, the group has definitely set the standard for extracurricular music programs in the United States. It has grown into a model of instruction and motivation that is being emulated across the nation. \nThe widely acclaimed Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic’s history includes more than 1\,500 performances in the majority of the states in our nation.  The group has been honored to perform three times at the White House and twice on the Millennium Stage at the Kennedy Center\, as well as at a State of Michigan’s Presidential Inaugural Ball.  Annual summer tours have spanned the United States from the east coast to the west coast\, down south to up north\, and have also included performances in Canada and tours in Europe\, including visits to Saline’s sister cities of Brecon\, Wales and Lindenberg\, Germany.  Each year the group performs 50-60 times\, generally donating a third of their annual schedule to community service events. \nSaline Fiddlers Philharmonic has shared the stage with many top artists as well as other student groups. Especially gratifying is the number of student fiddle organizations which have been started around the country because of inspiration from the Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n “The Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic were outstanding.

She’s shared stages with the Goo Goo Dolls\, 10\,000 Maniacs\, Anna Nalick\, Dickie Betts\, and more. \nYou’ve heard Cassandra’s songs on TV\, from Lifetime to ESPN to ABC\, including 13 songs on hit show Dance Moms. She has collaborated on songs with luminaries like the Goo Goo Dolls\, Chris Botti\, 10\,000 Maniacs\, DJ Taz Rashid\, and even her personal music hero\, Billy Joel. \nHer songs have helped raise tens of thousands of dollars for important causes\, such as “Not So Different” for Autism (performed for the NY Islanders at Barclays Center) and “You Get Me” for pet rescue (performed at Broadway’s iconic 54 Below).  \nA fierce advocate for women in entertainment\, she was the composer and bandleader of Emmy-winning new media TV Show “The Never Settle Show” hosted by Mario Armstrong; served on the board of Women in Music for 8+ years; and serves as the youngest and only female artist on the Caffe Lena board in Saratoga Springs\, NY. \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Pete Muller & The Kindred Souls\nBorn in New Jersey to immigrant parents\, Muller began playing piano as a teenager\, picking up regular gigs as an accompanist while excelling enough at his academic studies to earn acceptance to Princeton University. A math whiz with a preternatural gift for numbers\, he found himself fascinated with the connections between technology and finance\, and within a decade of graduating\, he’d helped revolutionize the field of quantitative trading\, which in turn transformed Wall Street as we know it. \n“Once I accomplished everything that I’d set out to do in the business world\, I realized that I hadn’t nurtured the artistic side of my life\,” Muller explains. “There was a six-year period where my focus was so intense that I hardly touched my piano. My work was a single-minded obsession.”  \nFeeling spiritually drained\, Muller began drifting away from his work for a period of equally intense focus on his music: busking in the subways\, playing small clubs and cafes\, and writing his own songs for the first time. After releasing a pair of early albums\, he married\, moved to California\, and became a father. While he eventually returned to the business he’d founded\, he remained as dedicated as ever to his craft. In 2014\, he recorded his third album\, Two Truths and a Lie\, which introduced him to Avatar Studios (a New York landmark previously known as The Power Station\, where icons like Bruce Springsteen\, Paul Simon\, David Bowie\, and Bob Dylan had recorded). Upon learning the studio was under threat of being sold and redeveloped as condos\, Muller decided to use his resources in partnership with the City of New York and the Berklee College of Music to save\, renovate\, and re-launch the space as a world-class recording and educational facility. He would go on to record his next two albums—2019’s Dissolve and 2022’s Spaces—there\, launching a whole new chapter of his career that would find him sharing bills with artists like Joan Osborne\, Jimmy Webb\, Livingston Taylor\, and Paul Thorn in addition to landing festival slots everywhere from Telluride to Montreux. \nThese days\, Muller is more content than ever\, embracing AND over OR as he splits his time between the East and West Coasts\, carving his own unique and inspiring path through the pair of vastly different\, yet ultimately complementary worlds he’s created for himself.  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n  “Cassandra Kubinski is very similar to the singer/songwriters of the late 70’s…proves that the genre (singer/songwriter) can still be transcendent.” – Billy Joel \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n “I was immediately drawn to the passion Pete brings to every performance\,” says Ross-Spang\, who encouraged Muller to embrace a looser\, grittier approach in the studio built around live takes and free-flowing improvisation without the rigid constraints of a click track. “Joy truly abounds in his music\, and working with Pete reinforced those same feelings in me. I consider myself very lucky to have helped capture that feeling on his new record.” \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n THEIR MUSIC\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n BURN IT DOWN (Official Music Video)\n \n \n \n \n \n Pete Muller & The Kindred Souls | “If I Had A Boat” \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Learn More about Cassandra Kubinski\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Learn More about Pete Muller & The Kindred Souls URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/cassandra-kubinski-with-pete-muller-the-kindred-souls/ LOCATION:Shepard Park\, Canada Street\, Lake George\, NY\, 12845\, United States CATEGORIES:Shepard Park,Summer Concert Series ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/Cassandra-Pete.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250723T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250723T203000 DTSTAMP:20260416T033136 CREATED:20250513T093044Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250513T093555Z UID:18887-1753297200-1753302600@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:Tops of Trees DESCRIPTION:Funky\, Soulful… Fresh\n \nAn original Rock & Soul ensemble hailing from upstate New York quickly making a name for themselves in the Capital Region.

The powerhouse vocalist’s combination of electrifying stage presence and immersive storytelling has enabled her to carve her own unique trail as an independent artist with nearly a million fans engaged online. Because of her relentless work ethic\, Ashley is an artist in full control of her career’s destiny\, and her accolades achieved to date underscore just that. The Arizona-based artist has also taken the reins as her own booking agent\, landing 60+ headlining shows across the country and spots on multiple festival and fair stages.\n \nNow working with Grammy-nominated\, multi-platinum producer\, songwriter\, and musician Marti Frederiksen — known for hits like “Mama’s Song” (Carrie Underwood) and “Dreamer” (Ozzy Osbourne) — Ashley is entering 2025 with more new music\, including her most recent release\, “Tumbleweed” (Sept 2024). The song’s music video has garnered over 1.3 million views while the track itself highlights Marti and Ashley’s creative chemistry. “Marti and I have had nothing but pure magic come out of the studio\,” Ashley exclaims. She’s particularly excited about “Loving You Is Easy\,” her first co-write with Marti due out later this year\, calling it a fresh direction with new sounds and themes. Ashley’s upcoming music continues to reflect her evolution\, ranging from fun and sassy to deeply heartfelt.\n \nAshley Wineland’s arena-ready vocals and energetic performances have already drawn early comparisons to country icons like Carrie Underwood\, Miranda Lambert\, and Gretchen Wilson — and she’s excited to hit the road for her 2025 “Moments in Time” Tour\, bringing her music and live performances to the fans across the country she’s dedicated herself to.

Finding that they shared similar frustrations about the emerging brass band scene in New York City\, co-founders Alex Harris and Ally Chapel came together to form a group dedicated to showcasing the talents of female musicians in a landscape that was dominated by male musicians and bandleaders. After debuting in March 2019\, Brass Queens grew to be a fixture in the local music scene and was dubbed “the hardest working band in town” by their peers. The Queens gained a dedicated following through outdoor performances on the streets of Brooklyn and playing pop-up events in their community through the pandemic. \nA core value of the band is to play for as many audiences as possible to increase the visibility of female musicians in brass bands. Brass Queens tour regularly across the country and internationally. Recent highlights include a New Year’s Eve performance in Breckenridge\, multiple nights at Favela Chic in New Orleans\, and a sold out show at Cliff Bell’s in Detroit. They also make appearances on festival stages including the Ottawa Jazz Festival\, Northlands Music Festival\, MusikFest\, Duck Jazz Festival\, and multiple appearances at the Exit Zero Jazz Festival. Brass Queens has played major events like The Met Gala and David Byrne’s “Amazing Humans Doing Amazing Things!” Variety Show\, and for notable clients including New Balance\, Chanel\, Saks Fifth Avenue\, Tiffany & Co.\, Bombas\, Perrier\, Facebook\, Instagram\, and Pinterest. They have also performed on national television on Good Morning America\, and had multiple shows at iconic New York venues like The Capitol Theater\, Blue Note Jazz Club\, and Brooklyn Bowl. They are also the 2023 winners of We Love NYC’s Rider’s Choice Award\, after the people of New York voted the Queens as their favorite of the MTA’s Music Under New York’s roster of subway performers. \nThe band has developed a signature style that sits right at the intersection of the Big Apple and the Big Easy. Their sound is deeply inspired by and pays homage to the New Orleans brass band tradition while injecting the upbeat\, multifaceted energy of their New York home into each performance. The result is a nonstop party: a Brass Queens show will have you singing along to classic pop hits\, dancing your heart out to reggaeton\, and feeling like you’ve been transported to Frenchman Street. In February 2021\, Brass Queens released their debut EP “Royal Street\,” which takes listeners on a six-song journey beginning in the heart of New York City with a cover of Cameo’s “Candy\,” down to Royal St. with their take on a New Orleans traditional\, “Little Liza Jane.” In November 2023\, the band released their first full-length album titled “Black & Gold\,” which is an ode to the Brass Queen’s incredible early fanbase who supported the band from the virtual performances and socially-distanced street corners during the COVID-19 pandemic\, to the crowded clubs and packed venues of today. Less than a year later\, Brass Queens released their second full-length album and their first album of all-original music titled “Hot Tub Sessions Vol. I.” \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n “The ensemble pays tribute to the New Orleans brass band tradition\, using its force to generate a sonic capture of the city’s vitality.” — Relix\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n THIER MUSIC\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Part Time Drummer by Brass Queens – NPR Tiny Desk Submission 2023\n \n \n \n \n \n Lady Marmalade (brass band cover) LIVE at Cafe Wha?\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Learn More about the Brass Queens URL:https://lakegeorgearts.org/event/brass-queens/ LOCATION:The Lake George Beach Club\, 3 Montcalm Street\, Lake George\, NY\, 12845\, United States CATEGORIES:Shepard Park,Summer Concert Series ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://lakegeorgearts.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/FINAL-Rain-Location.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20250821T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20250821T203000 DTSTAMP:20260416T033136 CREATED:20250521T150432Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250814T100122Z UID:19020-1755802800-1755808200@lakegeorgearts.org SUMMARY:Mixed Roots DESCRIPTION:Mixed Roots\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMixed Roots is truly that.
