Kingston Chapter: Take Out Music

Take Out Music is a group of four voices and more than 13 instruments. Despite their unassuming appearance, Take Out Music offers unique arrangements and an eclectic repertoire, everything from Elizabeth Cotten through Dylan to Motown. The name was inspired by their tradition of beginning each practice with a meal, and the enjoyment of one another’s company.

Kirk Lamb plays guitar, bass, and sings. He enjoys playing bass, and came to it through the traditional route: the band needed a bass player and it looked like no one else was going to do it.

Catherine Cattabiani, finding her piano too unwieldy to bring to rehearsals, sings, and plays the concertina and suitcase drum.

Jerelynn Mason enjoys all types of music, so naturally she took up the ukulele.

Mary Evans studied piano and cello, but when she saw a dulcimer being played at a country fair, she knew she had found her instrument. Mary especially enjoys dulcimer arrangements of fiddle tunes, and 17th Century dance tunes.

OPEN MIC
Music starts at 7:30, but if you arrive at 7:00 you can spend some time catching up with friends, helping each other sound check, and just generally enjoying the mellow Folk Guild vibe.

Andy Shapiro will be the Zoom maestro, so if you’re a musician and you’re planning to perform, let Andy know as soon as you come in from the Waiting Room.  He’ll get you into the next available slot.  Everybody gets two songs or eight (8) minutes, whichever comes first.
