Distinguished Artists: Gathering Time (Acoustic/Folk-Rock)

For more than a decade, Long Island-based folk-rock/Americana/AAA trio Gathering Time (Stuart Markus, Gerry McKeveny, and since 2022 Christine Sweeney) has toured both in the US and internationally, mixing new interpretations of both ’60s and ’70s classics and old traditional tunes with their strong original songs. Their sound reflects the voicings and arrangements of the genre’s pioneers: The Byrds, Peter, Paul & Mary, Joni Mitchell, and Crosby, Stills & Nash, brought into today with an acoustic-electric alchemy all their own.

Today’s show is entitled “Songs of Hope, Freedom, and Conscience.”

All Distinguished Artists concerts are free; however, free tickets may be required for certain shows. Call the Massapequa Public Library at 516-799-0770 for information.
