ORANGE - On Sunday, January 11, at 2pm, the “Terry, Matt and Ann Trio” is slated to perform their rhythmic renditions of early American blues and roots music at the ground floor venue of the First Universalist Church at 31 North Main Street. The free event will kick off the latest “Petit Concert” series of monthly concerts presented by Stage on Main and sponsored by the Orange Revitalization Partnership and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
The trio will make music on banjo, harmonica, bass, percussion and vocals. Terry Reed and wife Ann Reed, of Orange, and Matt Hickler, of Royalston, have shared musical stages for 35 years, in various combos, since the jamming heyday of the bygone Warwick Inn Tavern, where Hickler’s jugband chops and the Reeds’ rootsy rhythms first met.
The two-hour program will include time to socialize over refreshments. Although free, “donations are always appreciated,” according to organizers. This latest block of monthly concerts will run through May and feature a variety of performing artists.
