Join us Saturday February 7th for a concert with Cricket Blue!

Our doors open at 7:00. There are no advance ticket sales. Admission is $10 adults, $8 for seniors and teens, and $3 for children 12 and under.

The songs of Burlington-based folk duo Cricket Blue are inspired by diverse aspects of the American folk tradition: old and current, popular and obscure. Members Laura Heaberlin and Taylor Smith write songs marked by close-knit harmonies that range from traditional to inventive, with words about indecision, love, myth, and the ends of the things.

At the core of Cricket Blue's sound are Heaberlin's and Smith's sometimes mingled and sometimes markedly contrasting musical and poetic imaginations. Heaberlin writes with a perceptive lyrical style that elevates mundanities and makes the sublime pocket-sized. Smith strings parabular images into narratives that move between enigmatic and strikingly honest. They count songwriters like Jeff Mangum, Joanna Newsom, Laura Marling, Anaïs Mitchell and Bob Dylan among their influences, as well as poets and storytellers like Dylan Thomas, Alice Munro, Angela Carter, and David Foster Wallace.

"Individually, both Laura Heaberlin and Taylor Smith are accomplished singer-songwriters. But together as Cricket Blue, they've hit upon a formula that transcends anything they've done apart. Their vocal blend is immaculate. But more importantly, they appear to share a sensibility and sensitivity — the mark of any great duo." Dan Bolles 7 Days
