On Sept. 4, Lori Diamond and Fred Abatelli will perform at Canterbury Shaker Village’s Music on the Green series with special guest, Anelise.
An award-winning songwriter (finalist, Great American Songwriting Contest 2010, Best Female Vocalist, Pulse Magazine 2011 and 2012), Diamond combines soulful vocals and seasoned piano playing with Abatelli’s skills in both the guitar and bass. Special guest Anelise, known for her quarantine sessions on social media, will provide “musical nostalgia.”
“Their music is family-friendly and a wonderful complement to our outdoor music series,” said Executive Director Leslie Nolan, who said their musical styles range from jazz and acoustic to folk, pop, gospel, and blues. “Like all our concerts, this concert will appeal to just about anyone who enjoys music.”
Music on the Green performances take place at Canterbury Shaker Village, 288 Shaker Road, Canterbury from 4 to 5 p.m. every Sunday through Sept. 11. Performances are free with a suggested donation of $20.
