Schroon’s famous Monday night band jam at the BoatHouse is back. This acoustic only event starts tonight (June 14) and runs through the late summer from 7 pm – 9 pm. Everyone is welcome at this free event. Never been to the Boathouse acoustic jam? The talent is amazing -- and there's always an eclectic range of musicians (and instruments) onstage. Sponsored by the Schroon Lake Arts Council.
Doo Wop, jazz, folk and country are among the music acts featured in this year’s 2012 Schroon Lake Arts Council line up for the summer.
“We are very excited about this season,” Jack Osborne, one of the organizers told Schroon Laker today.
The SLAC will again sponsor the traditional Monday Night Boat House Acoustic Jam Sessions, and the 23rd Annual Adirondack Folk Music Festival. There are also two free performances for children.
The number of acts is down “ever so slightly” from last year due to a ten per cent budget cut from the town of Schroon. Those cuts impacted several organizations that depend on government grants.
But that has not dampened the enthusiasm of the SLAC to find and bring unique acts to our community.
“We go out of our way to broaden the scope of music we have here,” Jack said.
This season’s lineup reflects that mission statement, while bringing back a couple of favorites.
