Next Stage

A lovely bit of extra wonder in our magical little town.

Always outstanding. Beautiful, intimate venue. I've seen them with 80,000 "friends," and with 125 friends. And over 25 times. All amazing events.

My wife, Claudia, and I drove only an hour north to Putney, Vermont, Saturday, Nov 5, from Springfield, MA to see, live, AJ and her fantastically talented Bluegrass/Folk band, "Blue Summit" perform. This California-based group of young, brilliant, passionate musicians brought the house to their feet with thunderous applause and a wonderful encore. The venue, the revered "Next Stage", was intimate, lovely and comfortable. Arriving early in Putney, we met all 5 artists, and we parked conveniently at the venue front door, had a great meal at the general store across the street, and when AJ walked by she posed for photos with us, AND, the weather was perfect ... as was the band's stellar performance!! Without a doubt, this group has the youth, stamina, incredible talents, love and passions to become the greatest success on a national and international level. In an arena filled with competitive talents, AJ, with the voice of an angel, and Blue Summit's wonderful instrumentals, this band is destined for musical entertainment's most shining greatness. They bring joy and happiness to the world and their audiences simply adore them. ❤🎶 Dr. John Alifano Longmeadow, MA jjalifano@aol.com

She is sassy as ever and a great story teller. Great facility. We travelled from Arlington, Vt to see the show and had a great night. Thank you!
