our new winter concert called "Icy Decks and Silent Wrecks" at the Parker River Wildlife Refuge Visitor's Center on Plum Island Turnpike, Newbury, Mass., on January 25th, 2009 from 1:00 to 2:30 pm. This is our second family show in the beautiful new theatre there.

Wheaton College, Norton, Mass., is also on the horizon. ...and...

We're in the process of rescheduling the Boxford, Mass., Library show for sometime in February....and...

We're now in the process of recording our new CD, which includes all the Stan Rogers music featured in The Freedom Plant, plus three original tunes.

Leeward Rail played Nov 1st in Rowley...

On the evening of Saturday, Nov 1st, we played a benefit concert for the First Congregational Church, Main St,. Rowley, Mass. from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. This was a coffeehouse event at the big white church in the center of Rowley. (Actually, historically speaking, the church, at one time, was Rowley!) Coffee, goodies, music, fun and fellowship, all for for a very worthy cause. Thanks to Rev. Bob, all the members of the Missions Committee and thanks to all who came...It's a good feeling to be scrambling to add more chairs before the show kicks off!
