Rob Adams will join March 5 Song & Story Swap via Zoom

Please come share in an evening of music and stories at the Pioneer Valley Folklore Society Song & Story Swap.

Viewers may also watch the event via YouTube Livestream beginning at 7pm ET on March 5.

Featured guest artist at the March 5 online Song & Story Swap will be singer-songwriter and guitarist, Rob Adams.

Rob Adams has been a mainstay in the Massachusetts music scene for decades. He has shared the stage with Jonathan Edwards, Bill Morrissey, Martin Sexton, and Dan Hicks and His Hot Licks, among others. He is a founding member of the original music group She’s Busy, and still makes guest appearances with the group. He will also show up to play with bands Uncles of the Pioneers, Fusion Junction, The Casters, Hoovers and New England Weather.

His solo CD, Overdue, showcases his original songs as well as a playful guitar arrangement of Vince Guaraldi’s “Linus and Lucy”. He continues to write and record in his home studio in Western Massachusetts.

Praised by Worcester Magazine for his "outstanding acoustic guitar playing" and by Face Magazine as "a formidable vocalist," Rob Adams's guest spot at the March 5 Song & Story Swap promises to be a performance to savor.
