On View at the La Grua Center from May 9 – July 2, 2025  

 

The artists of Gallery One are pleased to present the Artful Alchemy exhibition celebrating the fusion of styles, techniques, and artistic traditions. Each artist channels their inner alchemist, blending materials, experiences, and ideas to create rich visual narratives. Join the artists for the  opening reception  on Friday, May 9 from 5pm to 7pm.

 

Exhibiting artists include: Rosemary Cotnoir (Westbrook), Victor Filepp (New London), Karen Israel (West Hartford), Michael Fanelli (Clinton), Ann Knickerbocker (Old Saybrook), Brian McClear (West Hartford), T. Willie Raney (Ivoryton), Diana Rogers (Clinton), Rick Silberberg (Ivoryton), and Jill Vaughn (Ivoryton). 

“Artists are like modern-day alchemists, transforming diverse materials and emotions into works that are beautiful, innovative and thought-provoking,” said Michael Fanelli.

 

“Each stroke of paint and color interacts and mingles, and that is the alchemy that brings a painting to life,” said Diana Rogers. “Using pure pigments and color is ideal for honoring nature and the vibrant hues of life along the shoreline.” 

 

The exhibit is on view May 9 through July 2 at the La Grua Center located at 32 Water Street in Stonington, CT. The  opening reception  is Friday, May 9 from 5pm to 7pm and is free and open to the public.

Searching for a partner can be horrifically painful. But board games are always awesome. So what if you combined board games and finding a partner?

Picture this: You sit down for a night of games. A gaming concierge walks you through several games over the course of the night. You play classics you love and discover brand new games you've never heard of, playing each with a different group of fun singles. All while in a great establishment with plenty of delicious options on tap. At the end of the night, you give your gaming concierge a list of the folks you met that you'd like to date and a list of those you met that you'd like to just hang out with as friends. If any two people put down the same name as each other in either column, then your gaming concierge will make sure you get each other's e-mail address and you can coordinate a time to hang out.

Best case scenario: You find true love, discover some awesome board games, and make some new friends.

Bad case scenario: You accomplish only one of those three things, which is still pretty great.

Worst case scenario: There will be alcohol.

Space is limited- grab your spot here!

 BOBBY CHRISTINA'S CARAVAN PRESENTS: AL STAEHELY & THE CONNECTORS

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 25

Show:  7:30p |  Doors:  7p

https://knickmusic.com/events/2025/0/25-staehely

Tickets:  $20 ($3 Service Charge Included With Online Tickets. All sales are final, no ticket refunds or exchanges. Seats are on a first-come, first-serve basis, and seats are not guaranteed with ticket purchase.)

alstaehely.com

Bobby Christina’s Caravan presents Al Staehely & The Connectors featuring Al Staehely, Fran Christina, Cliff Goodwin, Marty Ballou and Bobby Christina.

Al Staehely's roots in the Austin music scene combined with his experience writing and collaborating with artists in Los Angeles (most notably as front man in the psychedelic rock band Spirit) have allowed him to create a sound all his own. Seamlessly blending classic rock, soulful blues with a commanding stage presence, Al is just at home playing intimate solo shows with an acoustic guitar on his knee as he is taking center stage at a rock show. Al's engaging lyrics and creative melodies have peaked the interest of other artists who have recorded his songs- Keith Moon (The Who), Marty Balin (Jefferson Airplane), Peter Cox (Go West), The Nick Gravenites/John Cipollina Band, as well as performers from his own back yard, most recently Houston R&B vocalist Annika Chambers.

His songs deliver vivid stories with colorful clarity. His raspy voice, Appalachian accent, and busy two-finger picking style set his sound apart with notable distinction. Nail’s technique weaves complex guitar melodies seamlessly with his dramatic vocal delivery.

"North Carolina is a Mecca of troubadouring singer-songwriter brilliance... Tyler Nail is undoubtedly a key player in the current chapter of this storied heritage." -Aldora Britain Records

 WARD HAYDEN & THE OUTLIERS

FRIDAY, JUNE 27

Show:  8p |  Doors:  7p

Tickets:  $20

https://knickmusic.com/events/2025/06/27ward-hayden-the-outliers

($3 Service Charge Included With Online Tickets. All sales are final, no ticket refunds or exchanges. Seats are on a first-come, first-serve basis, and seats are not guaranteed with ticket purchase.)

wardhaydenandtheoutliers.co

The story of “Little by Little,” the new album by Ward Hayden & The Outliers, began like so many Bruce Springsteen songs do: in a car with the radio on, hurtling down a highway, headed for distant destinations. But in this instance a voice of sour rhetoric ignited Hayden’s desire to balance the scale with the pursuit of something unifying, constructive, and positive. Unfortunate statements made by a fellow Massachusetts Country artist that directed their audience NOT to listen to Bruce Springsteen kicked off what became a two year recording project that has resulted in an impressive collection of meaningful Springsteen-penned songs that connect us through the acknowledgement, acceptance, and celebration of our hardships and triumphs. Songs the Outliers perform with soul and passion, showcasing the meaningfulness of what unites us, and the ties that bind us together through the perseverance of the enduring human spirit.

An impressive endeavor that was two years in the making, Ward Hayden and The Outliers wound up with a clutch of 16 finished Springsteen songs, all interpreted Outliers-style, that they decided to split down the middle into two separate, yet thematically linked albums. Their respective release dates will coincide with the Outliers always-busy touring schedule so fans will have fresh, new music to latch onto live and on record. “Little by Little” drops first on April 18th, with the second installment, “Piece by Piece” (both titles are gleaned from Springsteen’s lyrics to “Racing In The Street”) due later this year, right around the time the band heads for Europe & Scandinavia.

As any fan of this prolific Massachusetts-born band knows, the music on “Little by Little” is outfitted in the inimitable Outliers’ style. That is, to say, with a marvelously effective, updated dose of Country & Western flavor. All told, the musicianship here is so comfortably tight you could bounce a jukebox quarter off of it. Of course, the sonic package is topped off by the Outliers’ calling card and ace-in-the-hole: Hayden’s emotionally resonant, supremely silken vocals. It’s a voice that, in the span of a verse or a moment, can effortlessly summon the highest of spirits or sink the saddest of hearts. And as if that wasn’t enough to draw listeners in, for “Little by Little,” Hayden even taught himself to play harmonica, which you can hear augment the wistful, twin elegies of “Used Cars” and “Promised Land,” the latter of which is slated to be the album’s first single. Taken together, what the whole shebang sounds and feels like, unmistakably, is nobody but Ward Hayden & the Outliers.

“Well, you can’t out Boss The Boss,” says Hayden, who spent his formative years on the South Shore listening to Springsteen and watching Bruce’s videos on MTV. “We had always felt a little intimidated about trying to tackle his songs because some of them are so iconic. We knew that if we were gonna do them, we had to play them the way we play our music, and that was the first challenge.”

“We chose the songs that meant something to us,” Ward says of the selection process. “A lot of the songs have been the soundtrack to growing up – back when you were hanging out with your friends in the kitchen, songs you’d listen to while driving home from school, or during the course of you just living your life. And with this collection, I felt we were able to say some things that I’ve not been able to say myself yet in my own work, and here we were able to cover some important and meaningful ground that I’ve been wanting to cover.”

Stellar Cellar was formed in the Summer of 2021 when Shawn Brisson, Aaron Lionetti and Lee Harrison got together for a jam session and had discovered a natural chemistry that unearthed a mysteriously new sound that they couldn’t quite define. With a collective artistic vision and a blend of creative freedoms, the trio began working on all new original material that would consistently break down genre defining barriers and create a sound of their own. After a few years of woodshedding and testing the songs in a live setting on the local circuit, the band decided to add longtime friend and musician Blake Smith to solidify and round out the lineup of a modern rock quartet. The band began playing local clubs and bars around their hometown of Westerly, RI and recorded their debut album Humanoid at Redbone Studio in the Winter of 2024. With a new twist on an ancient art form, Stellar Cellar hopes you enjoy a refreshing taste of a new brand of music! 

Jeremiah Hazed

Originating out of the Northeast farming town of Salem, Ct. Starting off simply as a few local musicians burning off some mid-week work angst at the local open mic, quickly turned to a cohesive element.

On View at the La Grua Center from May 9 – July 2, 2025  

 

The artists of Gallery One are pleased to present the Artful Alchemy exhibition celebrating the fusion of styles, techniques, and artistic traditions. Each artist channels their inner alchemist, blending materials, experiences, and ideas to create rich visual narratives. Join the artists for the  opening reception  on Friday, May 9 from 5pm to 7pm.

 

Exhibiting artists include: Rosemary Cotnoir (Westbrook), Victor Filepp (New London), Karen Israel (West Hartford), Michael Fanelli (Clinton), Ann Knickerbocker (Old Saybrook), Brian McClear (West Hartford), T. Willie Raney (Ivoryton), Diana Rogers (Clinton), Rick Silberberg (Ivoryton), and Jill Vaughn (Ivoryton). 

“Artists are like modern-day alchemists, transforming diverse materials and emotions into works that are beautiful, innovative and thought-provoking,” said Michael Fanelli.

 

“Each stroke of paint and color interacts and mingles, and that is the alchemy that brings a painting to life,” said Diana Rogers. “Using pure pigments and color is ideal for honoring nature and the vibrant hues of life along the shoreline.” 

 

The exhibit is on view May 9 through July 2 at the La Grua Center located at 32 Water Street in Stonington, CT. The  opening reception  is Friday, May 9 from 5pm to 7pm and is free and open to the public.

On View at the La Grua Center from May 9 – July 2, 2025  

 

The artists of Gallery One are pleased to present the Artful Alchemy exhibition celebrating the fusion of styles, techniques, and artistic traditions. Each artist channels their inner alchemist, blending materials, experiences, and ideas to create rich visual narratives. Join the artists for the  opening reception  on Friday, May 9 from 5pm to 7pm.

 

Exhibiting artists include: Rosemary Cotnoir (Westbrook), Victor Filepp (New London), Karen Israel (West Hartford), Michael Fanelli (Clinton), Ann Knickerbocker (Old Saybrook), Brian McClear (West Hartford), T. Willie Raney (Ivoryton), Diana Rogers (Clinton), Rick Silberberg (Ivoryton), and Jill Vaughn (Ivoryton). 

“Artists are like modern-day alchemists, transforming diverse materials and emotions into works that are beautiful, innovative and thought-provoking,” said Michael Fanelli.

 

“Each stroke of paint and color interacts and mingles, and that is the alchemy that brings a painting to life,” said Diana Rogers. “Using pure pigments and color is ideal for honoring nature and the vibrant hues of life along the shoreline.” 

 

The exhibit is on view May 9 through July 2 at the La Grua Center located at 32 Water Street in Stonington, CT. The  opening reception  is Friday, May 9 from 5pm to 7pm and is free and open to the public.
