Sub Rosa at Passim

I love a nice, relaxing Sunday but sometimes it's nice to have plans on a Sunday night.  It kind of extends the weekend and prevents all that wasted time suffering from the "Sunday Blues."  Last Sunday we had tickets to the Sub Rosa show at Club Passim.

Sub Rosa is how we got hooked on shows at Club Passim.  They are a local songwriting group that gets together from time to time to play lots of amazing music!  They also go on a grant funded program (shout out to Passim's Iguana Fund) songwriting retreat to my beloved Three Mile Island.  When I first saw a sign for this show a few years ago I knew we had to go.  Since that first show we have found so many great artists to follow~ Kris Delmhorst, Mark Erelli, and Dinty Child led us to Ellie Buckland that led us to Lula Wiles that led us to Session Americana and Ali McGuirk (more on her soon) and Lori McKenna.

Each year Sub Rosa performs the songs they wrote on the island and for the last three years JO and I have been lucky enough to be in the audience.  The really great thing about this show (one of the most anticipated at Passim each year) is that it features such a wide range of music.  From heartfelt, to silly, to campfire sing alongs, it's all packed into ninety minutes of fantastic music.  This year's show was great, as was going out on a Sunday night.
