  • Salem Art Works 19 Cary Lane Salem NY 12865 (map)

The second of three musical celebrations to take place at the top of Cary Hill Sculpture Park this season.
Guests can enjoy fabulous panoramic views of the surrounding countryside while relaxing in the cool evening air, surrounded by great food, music, and friends.

The Laura Leigh Band will begin performing at 5 PM.

Laura Leigh is a multi instrumentalist, singer, songwriter and story teller from upstate NY. From the sweeping landscapes of farm country, Laura's voice echoes old timey Appalachian mountain music with early day country  ballads, and a big old love for rock and roll.  Her songs are authentic tales of small-town USA through a lighthearted lens that is emotional, nostalgic, and emotional. Beginning her music career playing accordion in various bands in the Hudson Valley including Mister Roper, The Roadside Blues Band, Wise Roots, Swampfoot, and more- Laura released her first solo album, "Livin' In Cambridge" in 2021. This album paints pictures of the small town she grew up in with both light and dark tones, and explores the feelings of reinventing yourself in the place of your roots. The record is available on Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, and Bandcamp. She is now working on a project called Rock City Junction with Denise Parent (The Deadbeats, Brown Eyed Women) and David Chapman (Cold Flavor Repair, Rivergrass).

Food will be available for purchase.
Local craft beers and ciders from R.S. Taylor & Sons Brewery will also be available.

There will be free parking at the base of Cary Hill Sculpture Park and a shuttle service will be provided throughout the evening.
Donations are always graciously accepted.
