Campfire at Passim

I woke up last Tuesday and honestly thought, this is the best I've felt in a long time.  JO and I headed over to Passim for Zachariah Hickman's "Campfire" event. It was billed as an acoustic sing along with friends in the dark.  How could we not buy tickets to that?  Zachariah is a really talented local musician who is known for playing the upright bass.  He plays with Mark Erelli a lot and is really supportive of a lot of the local musicians we have become fans of.  He's a really funny guy with a great sense of humor so we knew the event would be fun but I think we were both really surprised by just how great it was.

JO picked out a table right next to the "campfire," a plug in yule log thing that definitely came from CVS!  Hickman sang a lot of songs and had lots of friends join him.  It really was a campfire sing along.  There was jazz, a string trio, and everything in between.  Isa Burke, of my favorite Lula Wiles, even sang several songs. 



Yes, there was a tuba finale!
I'm a proud member of Club Passim and this show is one of the reasons why.  Passim gives artists a chance to do inventive things like this event.  Here's my typical plug for Club Passim.  If you have never been, please, please, please go.  It's totally worth it. 



I was finally feeling back to myself and I was already thinking about all the fun things I needed to get back to doing.  Then Wednesday happened!
