Gather a picnic, pack a lawn chair or blanket and join in as we bring music to The Gardens at Elm Bank. Catch up with a friend or stroll through the gardens while listening in on the sounds of the evening. Reserve your entry ticket for Wednesday August 4th as we host the rockin' sounds of Jimmy Ryan starting at 7pm. For those who like their pigeonholes neat and tidy, Jimmy Ryan is an unsettling proposition. He plays mandolin with the old-timey pluck of a bluegrass breakdown, but he also plays it with the ferocity of rock guitarist. What else would you expect of a left-handed rebel who began his career by playing both in a bluegrass combo (Pine Island) and a punk band (Decentz)? That melding of styles made Ryan a pioneer of the so-called “alt-country” scene in the late ’80s when he founded and fronted the bluegrass-tinged rock band The Blood Oranges. And the same eclectic approach makes him one of the most dynamic singer-songwriters on the rich Boston Americana scene today. Garden entrance is allowed starting at 6pm. Restrooms and a bottle refill station available on-site. As always, please no dogs. Donations Requested for Massachusetts Horticultural Society members/$15 + ticket fees for General Public *We will not honor reciprocal memberships for this event, sorry for any inconveniences.
