Dar Williams<\/p><\/div>\n

The most ambitious summer outdoor concert series \u2013 the one filled with name acts \u2013 is the 2025 Concerts Under the Stars series in King of Prussia, which is now in its 39th season.<\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
One of the highlights will be provided by Dar Williams this weekend.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Presented and produced by Rising Sun Presents!, the summer-long series will again take place at the scenic Upper\u00a0Merion\u00a0Township Building Park (175 West Valley Forge Road, King of \u00a0Prussia, www.concertsunderthestarskop.com<\/a>) \u2013 except for this weekend.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In July, the series will start with a trio of shows at Heuser Park (which is located at 694 West Beidler Road in King of Prussia) — Lotus and Circle Around the Sun on July 3, Indigo Girls, Dar Williams and Milk Carton Kids on July 5 and Railroad Earth and Yonder Mountain Stringband on July 6<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
These are the only three concerts at this venue and together they make for a blockbuster weekend.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The main event takes place on July 5 \u2013 the River Roads Music Festival featuring Dar Williams, Indigo Girls and The Milk Carton Kids.<\/div>\n
The festival, which gets underway at 1:30 p.m., also features sets by Sunny War, The Nields, Raye Zaragoza and Sug Daniels.<\/div>\n
Williams, who is a longtime resident of the Hudson Valley, has been a fan favorite in the Philadelphia area for decades. She is the founder of the River Roads Music Festival.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams posted this statement — \u201cThe River Roads Festival has been a wonderful new home for my music and musical friends, my deep love for American rivers, and alliances with good organizations that keep our rivers clean and healthy. The Philly area, particularly King of Prussia, is my first home, the first place that welcomed me thirty years ago, and River Roads will be there soon. I can\u2019t wait!\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
For the Indigo Girls, it will be a final warmup for their three-month national \u201cYes We Are Tour\u201d with Melissa Ethridge which starts on July 25 at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
For the Milk Carton Kids, it will be the first of six festivals on their schedule for summer 2025.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A little over a year ago, Williams was in Chester County — sharing the bill with Bruce Cockburn at the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville.<\/div>\n
Back then, Williams was out on a support tour \u2013 but not a tour in support of a new album.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams was touring in support of a newly released book,\u00a0\u201cHow To Write A Song That Matters,\u201d which was released via Hachette Books.<\/div>\n
She was also on the road playing her music at venues around the East Coast.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This summer, Williams has just one show on her music calendar — the River Roads Music Festival.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI have two songwriting retreats scheduled for this summer,\u201d said Williams, during a phone interview Tuesday evening from her home in New York\u2019s Hudson Valley.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams\u2019 \u201c2025 Writing A Song That Matters In Person Retreats\u201d will be held July 7-11 and August 4-8 at\u00a0Guest House\u00a0in Chester, Connecticut.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
At some point in 2025, Williams will take to the road in support of her next album which is due for release later this year.<\/div>\n
\u201cI recorded my new album last year and that took a bit of time,\u201d said Williams.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cIt was produced by Ken Rich and recorded at Grand Street Recording in Brooklyn.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Grand Street Recording, which is located in Williamsburg and owned by Rich, is billed as, \u201cthe most creative recording environment in Brooklyn.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a basement studio where everybody keeps their gear,\u201d said Williams. \u201cIt\u2019s amazing with walls of guitars and other instruments.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cWe recorded everything digitally. We also did a couple tracks with David Chalfont at a studio in Northampton, Massachusetts.\u201d<\/div>\n
One of the many artists who has recorded albums at Grand Street Recording is Ani DiFranco.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In April, Williams signed a recording deal with Righteous Babe Records \u2013 a label that is owned by DiFranco.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams\u2019 history with DiFranco\u00a0runs many years deep — from performing together in their early years at Canadian and U.S. folk festivals to collaborating on recordings such as \u201cComfortably Numb\u201d on Williams\u2019 album \u201cMy Better Self.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
They have met on many stages and share similar passions for their audiences, the causes they embrace, and, of course, the music that brings it all together.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
According to DiFranco, \u201cDar and I go back a lot of decades, and I\u2019m so pleased to be able to offer her and her music shelter now, in this stormy world. We celebrate and welcome Dar into the Righteous Babe fold!\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams agrees, \u201cThis is such an important time to be a part of a musical community that stands with a larger community. I\u2019m thrilled and grateful to be joining Ani in this world she has built.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams entered the recording process with 11 songs and emerged with 10 for inclusion in the album.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cMost of the songs are fairly recent,\u201d said Williams. \u201cThere are three songs that I began writing during the pandemic.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThere is definitely a theme. It is about civilization \u2013 how we live and create beautiful things \u2013 how do we really do it.<\/div>\n
\u201cOne of the songs \u2013 \u2018Maryland, Maryland\u2019 \u2013 deals with (Maryland congressman) Jamie Raskin. It has a lot to do with January 6. It\u2019s a state song for Maryland. Jamie Raskin is my friend \u2013 and my hero.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams, who has recorded more than 20 albums, released her most recent album, \u201cI\u2019ll Meet You Here,\u201d in October 2021 on BMG\u2019s recently launched Renew label. Her most recent album prior to this was \u201cEmerald,\u201d which came out in 2015.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThere was a gap between albums because I did a book,\u201d said Williams, a well-respected speaker\/author\/singer-songwriter.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cAfter I released \u2018Emerald\u2019 in 2015, I stopped writing songs for a while. I didn\u2019t start writing songs again until 2017. Then, I recorded \u2018I\u2019ll Meet You Here\u2019 in 2019.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI was going to release it in 2020. But because of the pandemic, I moved the entire release up a year. It was just a year off and now it\u2019s really full out.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI recorded the album in North Jersey at a studio near Weehawken with producer\u00a0Stewart Lerman. The core of the recording was done in a couple weeks in November 2019. Then, I did an intensive week in January 2020 with Stuart Smith, who plays with the Eagles.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI sent a scratch track of the title song to Larry Campbell in Woodstock. I wanted to do it as a duet with bassist\u00a0Gail Ann Dorsey\u00a0and\u00a0Larry Campbell.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Campbell produced the track and played\u00a0guitars, pedal steel and twangy baritone guitar. Later, they had to postpone a mid-March mixing date because Campbell said he wasn\u2019t feeling well anyway which turned into a serious case of COVID-19.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI had a schedule conflict, so we had to postpone the mixing date with Larry for day,\u201d said Williams. \u201cHe was getting really sick and then found out he had COVID. He got very sick with COVID. We were very lucky because if we had done the mixing session, a lot of people could have contracted the disease.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Despite encountering some speed bumps along the way, Williams was finally able to put the album out.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThe album officially came out on October 1, 2021\u201d said Williams. \u201cWe had a few singles that came out prior to the album release and that helped.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The album has 10 songs including nine originals.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Even when Williams isn\u2019t focusing on music, she still stays very busy.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI\u2019m working on a novel,\u201d\u00a0said Williams, who also handles the duty of being a mother to a young child.\u00a0\u201cI\u2019ve also been writing songs.<\/div>\n
\u201cI just taught a college course at Wesleyan University. Teaching at a university was great. I\u2019ve also done some songwriting retreats and that\u2019s been great too. I like to have different avenues rather than just recording and touring.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
One of those avenues has been writing books.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams published two young-adult novels with Scholastic in the mid-2000s, along with a green blog for Huffpost, before she tackled her urban-planning study, published in 2017 \u2013 \u201cWhat I Found in a Thousand Towns: A Traveling Musician\u2019s Guide to Rebuilding America\u2019s Communities \u2014 One Coffee Shop, Dog Run & Open-Mike Night at a Time.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In that book, Williams muses on why some towns flourish while others fail, examining elements from the significance of history and nature to the uniting power of public spaces and food. Drawing on her own travels and the work of urban theorists, Williams offers real solutions to rebuild declining communities.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cWhat I Found in a Thousand Towns\u201d is more than a love letter to America\u2019s small towns, it\u2019s a deeply personal and hopeful message about the potential of America\u2019s lively and resilient communities.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not a memoir,\u201d said Williams. \u201cIt\u2019s what I had seen from tours in my travels at towns that had found a way to be resilient \u2013 hometown pride and a world welcome. I followed that thread and tried to figure out what it was.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI call it \u2018positive proximity\u2019 \u2013 a state of being in a town where people know that living side-by-side is beneficial\u2026that the more they follow that proximity, the better life can be.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI wrote about how to build positive proximity, how to maintain the benefits of positive proximity and how to sustain positive proximity.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In her book, Williams looks at two area towns \u2013 Phoenixville and Wilmington.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThe Phoenixville chapter is about what happens when a town digs into its history and builds on that,\u201d said Williams. \u201cIt is a town that has become a vibrant place because of that.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThe Wilmington chapter is about waterfronts \u2013 about how towns can come back to life by developing their waterfront areas with parks, restaurants and public spaces.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Williams headed in an entirely different direction on her new book,\u00a0\u201cHow To Write A Song That Matters.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI wanted to write a book that was written by a performing songwriter,\u201d said Williams. \u201cThere is a broad and magical way that songs live in the world. Songs bring people back to times in their lives with new eyes.\u201d<\/div>\n

On July 3, Jamey\u2019s House of Music (32 South Lansdowne Avenue, Lansdowne, www.jameyshouseofmusic.com<\/a>) will host Philadelphia Blues Society Night featuring Mark Margolies Band.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Margolies has been passionately playing guitar since he was 13 years old.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI got into music when I was a youngster,\u201d said Margolies, during a phone interview Tuesday afternoon.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI started with piano when I was nine. My mother was a classically trained pianist. I switched to guitar when I was 16.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Growing up he learned to play what he heard on the radio.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cEventually, I found my way to blues from rock-and-roll on the radio,\u201d said Margolies. \u201cI also discovered jazz as well.<\/div>\n
\u201cMy influences were B.B. King, Albert King, Albert Collins, Kenny Burrell, Buddy Guy and Jimmy Vaughan.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mostly self-taught, Margolies started playing professionally shortly after graduating from the Pennsylvania College of Optometry in Philadelphia in 1985.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In 2022 he released his first album of contemporary Blues music titled, \u201cCan\u2019t You See.\u201d His album has been played on SiriusXM radio and on other radio stations around the country.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThe album was produced by Mikey Junior, a local blues artist,\u201d said Margolies. \u201cWe recorded the album at Soundplex Studio in Pennsauken, New Jersey.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cIt was a process. There were a couple sessions for just rhythm \u2013 drums, bass, guitar \u2013 to get laid down. Later, we added vocals, sax and special effects. It took about six months. I met Mikey Junior at the Twisted Tail Blues Jam in South Philly.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Twisted Tail Blues Jam is an open blues jam hosted by Mikey Junior & Friends every Sunday evening at The Twisted Tail, which is located at 509 South Second Street.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI started going there 10 years ago and got to be good friend with Mikey Junior,\u201d said Margolies. \u201cI used his expertise to make the album. He chose the musicians.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI wrote some of the songs and some are just covers of blues from the 1950s on. I try to find songs that other musicians are covering and then we put our own spin on it.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cThere is a lot of improv on the album \u2013 especially with the sax. The saxophone adds a jazz feel.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Margolies\u2019 live band features different musicians than those who were used on the album.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cMy band has Gary Brooks on sax, Sam Goldstein on drums, Rando Branning on bass, Tom Donovan on drums and I\u2019m on guitar,\u201d said Margolies.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI put the band together after the CD came out. We\u2019ve been together for about three years now.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Margolies and his band have several upcoming shows in Chester County \u2013 at The Creamery in Kennett Square on August 1 and September 5 and at the Brothers on the Brandywine Beer Garden Music Festival in Coatesville on September 13.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cWe play The Creamery about six times a year,\u201d said Margolies. \u201cAnd I have been playing Jamey\u2019s House of Music usually three times a year. I also go to the Sunday jam there a lot.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
The show at Jamey\u2019s on July 3 will start at 8 p.m.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Tickets are $25.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On July 5, Jamey\u2019s will host Bob Beach and Paul Wilkinson.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Clarence Spady will perform with the Philly Blues Kings at the Sunday Blues Brunch & Jam on July 6.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This event features many of the top regional and national players every week and welcomes amateurs and weekend warriors to join on stage to celebrate the beautiful heritage of the blues.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The open mic jam runs from 1-3 p.m. with the featured band playing a set from noon-1 p.m.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
There is a diverse group of local jazz musicians with national reputations who perform together with various lineups at outdoor venues in Philadelphia throughout the summer.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
One of those concerts is scheduled for July 3 at Hawthorne Park, which is located at 12th\u00a0and Catherine streets in South Philadelphia.<\/div>\n
The Jazz at Hawthorne Park series will present a concert by an all-star quartet featuring Kevin Valentine, Jim Holton, Shane Aaserud and Byron Wooke Landham.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The show faced a weather postponement early this summer. Then, the weather wiped out a show that was rescheduled for June 26.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The message on Hawthorne Park\u2019s Facebook page read, \u201c3rd time’s the charm, right?!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cJazz in the Park re-re-scheduled for Thursday July 3rd at 7pm featuring vocalist Kevin Valentine<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cCome start your 4th of July weekend with Hawthorne Park!\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI\u2019m the music director and I play piano,\u201d said Holton, during a phone interview Tuesday afternoon from his home in Overbrook.<\/div>\n
\u201cI compose a lot. I\u2019m a freelance cellist and pianist.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI gig almost every night. I\u2019m at the Manayunk Brewing Company every Tuesday night and every Monday I\u2019m playing at the Moshulu.\u201d<\/div>\n
Holton has music in his heart, music in his soul, music in his upbringing and music in his DNA.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cI come from a whole family of musicians,\u201d said Holton, whose father was on the faculty of Kennett High School, Radnor High and Norristown High.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
His father was a clarinetist and saxophonist \u2013 and a jazz musician. Holton listened to his father\u2019s albums and accompanied him to Manhattan\u2019s West Village to hear shows at clubs featuring acts such as Thelonious Monk, Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mary Holton, his mother, was a singer and pianist. His sister Mary Robaire was an accomplished violinist and also a successful stage actress on Broadway. His grandfather was a violinist, pianist and music teacher.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Holton spent most of his summers as a youth at the New England Music Camp in Maine, where his parents were part of the faculty.<\/div>\n
Holton studied cello as a child and sang in the Cathedral Boys Choir of St. John the Divine in Harlem. He went to England to sing with the Royal School of Church Music at the Canterbury Cathedral.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He graduated from Radnor High School, attended Mansfield University of Pennsylvania for one year and transferred to the Philadelphia College of Performing Arts. One year later, he transferred to Temple University.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
As an adult, Holton has worked as a pianist, cellist, composer, arranger, and educator. He has performed extensively in the Philadelphia, Delaware, New Jersey, and New York areas with many groups that include critically-acclaimed Rhythm & Brass, Orrin Evans’ Captain Black Big Band, and Joe Suddler\u2019s Swing Machine.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Holton has also worked with artists Tim Warfield, Greg Osby, Clifford Adams, Larry McKenna, Tyrone Brown, Justin Faulkner, Charles Fambrough, John Swana, Mickey Roker, and Cornel Rochester.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
He has done session work for a long list of varied artists \u2013 including playing on a Grammy-nominated soundtrack, composed by Dr. Maurice Wright, for the documentary film, \u201cStrokes of Genius.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
For Holton, performing live is the best expression of his musical talents.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\u201cInspiring people is my goal,\u201d said Holton. \u201cThe better the music is, the more powerful the message is. I want to be a conduit for the music, so it flows through you. I want people to feel it.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
