SUMMARY:Avery\, Gottlieb & Rothko: By the Sea
DESCRIPTION:“Avery\, Gottlieb & Rothko: By the Sea” explores the artistic bond between three pivotal 20th century American artists—Milton Avery (1885–1965)\, Adolph Gottlieb (1903–1974)\, and Mark Rothko (1903-1970)—whose shared summers in Gloucester\, Massachusetts\, from the 1920s to the mid-1940s had a lasting impact on their work. The exhibit is being presented through a collaboration between the Cape Ann Museum and The Phillips Collection (Washington\, D.C.). On view at the Cape Ann Museum from June 30 through September 27\, 2026\, the exhibition will then be displayed at The Phillips Collection from October 24\, 2026\, through January 24\, 2027. \nAs the first Cape Ann Museum generated show to then be taken on by another institution\, the Museum is working in close collaboration with all three artists’ estates. The show will feature over 82 works from the 1920s to the 1960s\, with loans from 26 prominent national and private institutional collections\, including the National Gallery of Art in Washington\, D.C.\, which is a central partner lending 10 works by Mark Rothko to the exhibition. Many works in this exhibition have never been on public view. \nThis unprecedented exhibit\, accompanied by a 224-page catalog produced by Rizzoli Electa\, will reveal the deep connections between these artists\, emphasizing their roles as both mentors and peers\, while showcasing the unique working methods and lifelong friendships that shaped their groundbreaking art. The catalog\, in addition to including essays by Eliza Rathbone\, will also feature contributions by prominent art scholars and curators. \nOrganized for the Cape Ann Museum by guest curator\, Eliza Rathbone\, Chief Curator Emerita of The Phillips Collection in collaboration with The Phillips Collection\, Washington\, D.C.

SUMMARY:Top of The World - A Carpenters Tribute
DESCRIPTION:Top Of The World is The World’s Premiere Tribute to The Carpenters! \nFronted by singer Debbie Taylor\, her Karen Carpenter vocal resemblance is absolutely astonishing. She is backed by a seven piece band consisting of top-notch\, professional industry musicians who have had amazing careers in their own right. The band members are all multi-instrumentalists and at times use 3 keyboards to recreate the incredibly complex arrangements created by Richard Carpenter. The attention to detail paired with saxophone\, trumpet\, flute and many more instruments complete every song to perfection! \nThis show does not use tracks or pick up musicians like other shows. This is an 8 piece band that travels and performs all shows together. Additionally\, they have a multi-media slideshow which can be seen on their “Live Video” below. \nWho can forget the incomparable music of the Carpenters? The popular brother/sister duo of the 70’s and early 80’s gave us some of the most unforgettable ballads and melodic pop songs of all time. \nThis Carpenters Tribute Band brings the most authentic versions of the Carpenters music to the stage. No doubt\, you will be singing along as they perform hits like; “Close To You”\, “We’ve Only Just Begun”\, “Rainy Days And Mondays”\, “Please Mr. Postman” and “Yesterday Once More”\, to name a few. Debbie captures the warm tones and contralto range that made Karen’s voice so unique. Sit back and enjoy as Debbie and her band take you on a nostalgic journey through the Carpenters greatest hits while sharing some of the backstories behind the music.

SUMMARY:Club D’Elf
DESCRIPTION:What begins as a groove in Club d’Elf’s world often becomes a doorway into someplace older\, stranger and unshackled by time. \nThe band has spent twenty seven years helping audiences lose track of time with its shape-shifting fusion of Moroccan trance\, dub\, electronica\, jazz and improvised funk. Built around bassist and composer Mike Rivard\, each performance features a rotating cast drawn from Boston\, New York and beyond\, creating a constantly shifting ecosystem where trance forms the central core of the band’s aesthetic. Under longtime member and Casablanca native Brahim Fribgane\, the group absorbed Moroccan trance music deeply into its DNA. Fribgane passed away in early 2024\, but his spirit remains embedded in the band’s sound\, especially through Rivard’s commanding sintir work\, learned under the guidance of Fribgane and Gnawa masters Hassan Hakmoun and Mahmoud Guinia. \nTheir new album\, Loon and Thrush (due out 4/10/26)\, recorded entirely live in the studio with minimal overdubs\, channels that lineage into a raw\, improvisatory flight. While largely built on Rivard originals\, the album continues the band’s tradition of honoring key influences\, offering Moroccan-infused takes on Grateful Dead classics “Bird Song” and “New Speedway Boogie.” The overarching theme of the record is “flight” itself — the avian imagery of the title track\, the Dead’s celestial wanderings\, and the enduring presence of Fribgane\, whose spirit continues to guide the music from beyond.

SUMMARY:Ana Popovic with Danielle Miraglia
DESCRIPTION:“In the 25 years since the release of her debut record\, Hometown\, tail-gunning blues virtuoso\nAna Popovic has proved herself a force of nature with a vintage Stratin hand.” – Guitar World \n“Ana Popovic Melds Rock\, Blues\, and Jazz for Fiery Power” – No Depression \n“A badass with a silver Strat\, she performs the heck out of this song [“Worked Up”]\, owning it\nwith swagger and grace. … “Worked Up” captures her love of funky grooves plus the edginess\nof rocking guitar power. – Rock & Blues Muse \nLos Angeles-based and critically acclaimed guitarist and singer Ana Popovic is set to release her\nhighly anticipated album Dance To The Rhythm (Electric Heel Records) on September 26\, 2025.\nProduced by Popovic and Buthel\, the album showcases a groundbreaking fusion of groove\,\nblues\, funk\, and soul. \nBuilding on the success of her previous work\, Dance To The Rhythm pushes boundaries\,\nseamlessly blending infectious dance grooves (“Dance To The Rhythm” / “Sho Nuff”) with raw\nblues guitar and powerful lyrics. From the soulful “Soul’ution” to the funky “Hottest Ticket In\nTown” and the bluesy “Dwell On The Feeling”\, “California Chase\,” the album weaves a rich\ntapestry of musical styles\, reflecting Popovic’s masterful versatility. The track “Sisters and\nBrothers” channels a Steely Dan-like arrangement\, while “Hurt So Good” brings a contemporary\nmainstream flair. The ultimate jam comes in the form of a clever reimagining of Paul Simon’s\n“50 Ways to Leave Your Lover.” \nAna says: “One of my biggest strengths on stage is my ability to make people dance. Music\nshould take you to a place where you can let go\, feel the groove\, and move. You want music to\ngrab you\, to have a pocket that you can’t resist. —everything else revolves around it. Blues\nguitar has never really been part of dance music before\, and in that way\, it’s revolutionary. Guitar\nplays a central role in these tracks\, breaking down the boundaries created by time\, culture\, and\nmusical traditions. With this album\, I’m pushing those boundaries.” For Ana\, blues guitar is the\nfoundation of everything in her music. Yet\, she masterfully blends genres\, effortlessly shifting\nfrom blues to dance\, jam band\, funk\, pop\, and even gospel—it’s all part of her evolving sound.\nA true pioneer\, Ana combines her blues guitar roots with bold experimentation\, redefining the\nintersection of blues and dance music. Her live performances\, whether with her six-piece or\neleven-piece funk band FUNTASTAFUNK\, are electrifying\, blending fierce guitar work with\nirresistible rhythms that compel audiences to move. \nA multi-award-winning artist\, Popovic has earned recognition from major outlets and industry\nfigures\, including Bruce Springsteen\, who called her “one helluva guitar player.” She’s been\nnominated for seven Blues Music Awards\, and her latest album POWER hit #1 on the Billboard\nBlues Chart. Ana has shared stages with legends such as B.B. King\, Joe Bonamassa\, Warren\nHaynes\, Robert Plant\, and Gary Clark Jr.\, and is an endorsee of Fender\, D’Angelico\, Jim Dunlop\,\nand DR Strings. \nPopovic’s commitment to her craft and fearless boundary-pushing ensures she remains one of the\nmost dynamic forces in contemporary blues and beyond. \nDanielle Miraglia\nDanielle Miraglia (murr-Ä L e a) comes armed with a strong steady thumb on an old Gibson\,an infectious stomp-box rhythm\, harmonica and tunes ranging from heart-felt to socially conscious that will move both your heart and hips.
