Antrim band Decatur Creek will perform at the new Hatbox Theatre (located in the Steeplegate Mall in Concord) this Saturday at 7:30 p.m.
Decatur Creek defined: (De-ka’-tur Creek) prop. n. A stream flowing through the scenic country hills by county road 39 near Cooperstown, Otsego County, New York, where an impressionable
youth once lived and never forgot. (reference – “The Hick In Me” by Doug Farrell). Colloquial – an enjoyable acoustic musical experience where the simplicity of the past meets the complexity of the present.
Jack Carlton, Steve Dionne and Doug Farrell are each accomplished New Hampshire musicians, singer/songwriters and performers who together are Decatur Creek. They met as solo performers through New Hampshire coffeehouses and open mics, attracted by one another’s songwriting and musicianship. From their very first practice and first performance together soon after at the Warner Area Farmers Market in 2012, they realized there was musical chemistry that compelled further exploration. Their diverse styles, backgrounds and skills complement one another, and the group’s evolving original acoustic sound will bring a smile to your face, rhythm to your feet, and leave you wanting for more.
Their self-titled album is available at the FYE in the Steeplegate Mall. You can also hear their music on YouTube and check them out on Facebook.
The Hatbox Theatre is located on the south side of the Steeplegate Mall in the former Coldwater Creek store, 270 Loudon Road. Tickets are $16.50, and $13.50 for students/seniors/members. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit hatboxnh.com, or call 715-2315.
