This week (Saturday, August 29th at 8 pm), Reese Fulmer & the Carriage House Band will be taking the stage at the Auditorium as part of the 2026 Summer Concert Series!

Our Summer Concert Series is FREE and OPEN to the public so make sure to tell your friends and family, because these are concerts you won't want to miss. There will be a different performer every Saturday at 8 p.m.

About Reese Fulmer & the Carriage House Band: The Carriage House Band is a versatile indie-folk/americana ensemble that features regulars Chris Carey (drums), James Gascoyne (bass), Dylan Perrillo (bass), Jimi Woodul (guitar), Chris Bloniarz (octave mandolin), Connor Dunn (saxophone), and JP Hubbs (keyboard) in a variety of lineup combinations. Reese and his band have become one of the fastest-rising roots music groups in upstate NY with expansive albums highlighting a reputation for compelling performances. With its rotating cast of talented players, a broad and dynamic body of work, and a refusal to set anything in stone, Carriage House Band shows are always fresh, full of joy, and hard to describe. Think Wilco with hints of Prine and Zappa: "smart, emotionally tuned arrangements and a stage presence that balanced earnestness with unpredictability. Their live performance thrives in the liminal space between genres folk, Americana, jazz and the result is a sound that’s complex without being convoluted." (NYSMusic)

This week (Saturday, August 22nd at 8 pm), Kindred Valley will be taking the stage at the Auditorium as part of the 2026 Summer Concert Series!

Our Summer Concert Series is FREE and OPEN to the public so make sure to tell your friends and family, because these are concerts you won't want to miss. There will be a different performer every Saturday at 8 p.m.

About Kindred Valley: Indie folk band Kindred Valley started when three friends with a passion for music met at Marshall University in 2020. Initially under the name Back Row Baptists, Blake Lacy, Noah Freeman and Brett McCoy met in Huntington, West Virginia, and began writing and recording music together. The band released its first singles as a trio but found its footing in 2021 with three new members - Husband and Wife Rachael and Jadon Hayes and Kaden Salmons. With three new members and a flurry of new ideas, the band needed a new name. Now named Kindred Valley, Lacy and Salmons wrote an early version of the band’s single “Whistle” during the group’s first meet-up. With new blood and fresh ideas flowing, Kindred Valley released its fifth single, “The Wedding Song,” in 2021. After almost two years of creative efforts, the group released its self-titled debut album at the end of 2022. This was followed by an EP titled “What Was Left” containing ideas and songs inspired by their new experiences of playing live together all across the East Coast. Kindred Valley continues to tour and to write new music into 2025 and has big plans for the months to come.
