Join us at the Blackstone River Theatre for an unforgettable afternoon with the Pine Tree Flyers on October 20, 2024, at 3:00 p.m. This remarkable ensemble, comprised of four of New England’s most talented traditional musicians, is set to illuminate the stage with their vibrant and respectful take on the tunes of the Northeast. The group, all hailing from Portland, Maine, includes Katie McNally on fiddle, Emily Troll on accordion, Owen Marshall on guitar, and Neil Pearlman on piano. Together, they bring a wealth of experience and technical skill, honed from years of playing Irish, Scottish, and Quebecois music, to the American music scene that has emerged from these rich traditions.

The Pine Tree Flyers are not just performers; they are ambassadors of New England music, ensuring it is recognized as a distinct and vital American tradition. With backgrounds that include teaching at Maine Fiddle Camp, playing in the acclaimed contra dance band Anadama, and touring internationally with New England supergroup Childsplay, each member contributes a unique depth of knowledge and passion to the band. In their first year, they have already made significant strides, touring both internationally and domestically, and appearing at prestigious festivals such as Celtic Connections, Celtic Colours, and the Festival of Small Halls.

Don't miss your chance to experience the Pine Tree Flyers as they prove that New England tunes are a vibrant and essential part of America's folk heritage. Tickets are available now, with prices set at $23 in advance and $25 on the day of the show. Join us at the Blackstone River Theatre for an afternoon that celebrates the spirit and tradition of New England music.
