From “Ventura Highway” to “Woodstock”:&nbsp;The Hits of America and Crosby, Stills, Nash &amp; YoungVIDEO LINK:&nbsp; <a href="https://youtu.be/9GsrZ81xzLc" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">youtu.be/9GsrZ81xzLc</a>
Step into a time machine and rediscover the legendary sounds of the 70s with Wooden Horse, New England’s premier musical experience. As the nation’s only dual tribute show dedicated to the musical catalogs of both America and Crosby, Stills, Nash &amp; Young, Wooden Horse delivers a masterclass in nostalgia that you won't find anywhere else.
Capturing the essence of these iconic acts requires more than just instruments; it requires a vocal chemistry that is rare to find. This powerhouse six-piece ensemble rises to the occasion, faithfully recreating the intricate, sun-soaked harmonies and lush arrangements that defined a generation. From the breezy, acoustic gallop of "Ventura Highway" to the complex, multi-movement masterpiece "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes," every note is handled with surgical precision and soulful authenticity.
Whether you’re a lifelong fan of the "Sister Golden Hair" era or a devotee of the "Teach Your Children" spirit, Wooden Horse offers a seamless journey through some of the greatest chart-topping hits in music history.
Don’t miss your chance to see the only show that brings the spirit of these two legendary bands together for one unforgettable experience.

The instantly recognizable voice of the legendary Linda Ronstadt was launched in the mid 1960's when her band The Stone Poneys released their mega hit "Different Drum." For the next several decades, she hit the Billboard charts with dozens of incredible songs, including "When Will I Be Loved", "That'll Be the Day", "Heat Wave", "It's So Easy", "Blue Bayou", "Poor Poor Pitiful Me", "You're No Good", "Tumblin' Dice" and many more. Ronstadt Rewind is the Ultimate Linda Ronstadt Tribute Concert. The performance features American Idol Star Katherine Winston, who along with her outstanding band recreate the Ronstadt concert experience like no other in a show that features the legendary singer's great hits and more.

Mill Street Marketplace

The Makers Exchange is more than a market - it’s a gathering dedicated to supporting REAL ART AND HANDMADE WORK and the amazing people behind it. No AI generated anything. No 3D printed mass produced junk. No Temu resellers.
Please join us this June for a *very* thoughtfully curated outdoor market celebrating independent makers and small businesses. Every vendor has been intentionally selected to bring something special. From fine art and handcrafted goods to unique pieces you won’t find anywhere else. This is a space to connect with the artists behind the work, hear their stories, and discover something that feels meant for you.
You’ll be able to shop incredible work from artists like @shoppeofstuff, @endurvinnaa, @lunarforgedmaille, @toxic.moxie, @emberpinesco, @lil_momochi, @rudeplatesct, @bonealchemist, @uniques.curiosities, @ghostofthewoodsart (and so many more) whose pieces are featured on our flyer - and that’s just a glimpse of what’s in store!!!
We’re also so excited to have The Caffeine Coven (@thecaffeinecoven) on-site serving up their delicious, handcrafted drinks, plus the Craft Bird food truck bringing amazing eats so you can make an afternoon of it. 💁🏻‍♀️
Come wander, sip something yummy, grab a bite, and support small in a way that truly matters. Every purchase goes directly back into an artist’s hands, and that kind of exchange is powerful 🥹❤️
We can’t wait to see you there!!!
