1 SEP 2026 · It's the return of our favorite skydiving, music-loving punk rock librarian, Jon Copeland! These days, he calls Vermont home, but once a year he comes back to town to reconnect with friends and soak up some amazing live music. We talk about his recent shows, what it was like to watch his hometown occupied by ICE from afar and, as always, he makes some excellent musical selections. Cheers!

25 AUG 2026 · Jenny Case is back! For more than 3 decades, she's been a performer, composer, producer, and educator. This time, we focus on her role as bandleader for The ManEaters, the house band for the upcoming DoRe#MeToo celebration at The Parkway Theater. This annual event is an evening of righteous feminists reclaiming sexist songs (brilliant!), all to benefit Abortion Access Front. Jenny is an inspiration. Enjoy!
