Fifth Business in Concert, Jan.21 in West Newbury: Lively and unplugged, Fifth Business, will heat up the West Newbury Hall, 7-9 pm, January 21.

Benefit concert for NEK Council on Aging Fuel Fund: by donation at the door.

Hailing from Ryegate, Danville and St. Johnsbury, Fifth Business specializes in traditional and contemporary music, mostly about the kind of experiences that result from miscalculations and bad decisions. A touch of romance occasionally sneaks in, but agriculture, retirement planning, and dogs feature more prominently in the repertoire. They have appeared at farmers' markets, grange halls, and music venues throughout the Upper Valley

Nick Anzalone leads with his versatile fiddle. Stuart Corso creates depth with his voice and endless collection of button accordions. Heather Alger and Kate Davie contribute vocals and a bit of percussion, and Steve Davie keeps everyone in line with vocals, a guitar, and an octave mandolin.

All proceeds are for the Fuel Fund of the Northeast Kingdom Council on Aging which provides fuel assistance to aging neighbors. This winter there's been a sharp increase in requests for help with heating fuel.

Featuring its warm welcome and bountiful refreshments, the West Newbury Hall is at 219 Tyler Farm Rd., West Newbury, VT.
