This just came to me - hope it isn't too late for you to make plans.

"Immaculately crafted, rock-tinged blues-folk.”- Seven Days

‘Avi & Celia’ are performing at Cabot's Performing Arts Center 7:00pm on Saturday!

“The ever evolving, Avi & Celia have been a professional band since 2005. They have released two captivating records; Let it Rise (2008) and Off the Floor (2007), have played over 400 shows, building a loyal fan base and have received acclaim from Yankee Magazine, the Boston Globe, and NHPR.

‘Fantastic bluesy vocals from [Celia] Woodsmith. For those who are unfamiliar with the young prodigy, she smacks of old jazz singers, blue smoke-filled bars, and importantly, displays impressive range and technique’ Matt Keefer, Newport Mercury. Her powerful vocals have been likened to those of Susan Tedechi, Grace Potter, and Bonnie Raitt.

‘[Avi] Salloway proves a vicious axe man, his intensity matched only by Woodsmith’s bruising vocals.’ -Seven Days. Growing up, Avi was strongly influenced by Pete Seeger, a friend of the family.

‘You can tell right away that this music comes from the very fiber of their souls and it is absolutely spellbinding to listen to.’–Rock and Roll Report

Avi and Celia have opened for greats like Rory Block and Taj Mahal. Be there!
