BCMFest 2023 is right around the corner, taking place Jan. 12-15. Our big Nightcap Finale at The Sinclair will be on Saturday night the 14th at 8pm with the “Boston Celtic All-Stars”. As a celebration of some of the leading musicians in the Boston Celtic scene, these effervescent all-star players are a perfect group to honor the 20th anniversary of this great festival. They will perform as a full ensemble as well as in smaller collaborative groups that highlight the rich tapestry of Celtic traditions in Boston. Performers include Artistic Director @mcnallykl (fiddle), @jennamoynihan (fiddle), Shannon Heaton (flute), @natashasheehy (accordion), @triple_shot (guitar), and @j9randall (piano), with Irish and Cape Breton traditional dancers @rebeccamcgowanr and @miss_christine_morrison_.

We're delighted to have one of our good friends and talented musician, @rosecousins joining us for two nights with special guest Maya de Vitry. A native of Prince Edward Island, Rose Cousins lives in Halifax Nova Scotia. She deeply values being part of multiple music communities, and is constantly fueled by collaboration. Cousins’ 2012 album We Have Made A Spark celebrated her Boston community and featured a cast of musicians Cousins had known and played music with for a decade. It won a JUNO Award, 3 East Coast Music Awards, a Canadian Folk Music Award, was nominated for the Polaris Music Prize, and made picks/best of lists in USA Today, NPR Music and Oprah Magazine. Her music has found its way into several TV shows including Grey’s Anatomy.

The Rough & Tumble aren’t casual road dogs, but

The Rough & Tumble aren’t casual road dogs, but they aren’t letting on, either. From their upbeat, commanding stage presence and sharp banter, to their earworm-inducing melodies and heartstring lyrics, this dumpster-folk/thriftstore Americana duo refuses to bring the haggard road-worn stereotype to their audience– even though they’ve earned it. In fact, The Rough & Tumble have been elbowing out of most stereotypes. We're thrilled to have them here tonight @ 8pm.

“Of A Winter’s Night” is Tony Trischka’s banjo-driven celebration of the season where he turns his considerable melodic inventiveness loose on Bluegrass and Americana music for the holidays. With the backing of his band of extraordinary musicians, Tony is joined by shape-note singer and multi-instrumentalist Tim Eriksen, Hannah Read on guitar and vocals, Jared Engel on bass and vocals, and Sean Trischka on percussion. A diverse, highly textural seasonal collection, Trischka also revels in songs long forgotten and little known. Truly a sumptuous feast for the ears presented as only Tony Trischka can. Come join the fun tonight @ 8pm.

We are so excited to share with you the artists at

We are so excited to share with you the artists at 2023’s BCMFest and we are starting off strong with Copley Street! You can hear Copley Street in Club Passim on Thursday, January 12th, 2023.
.
Boston based Uilleann piper Joey Abarta and fiddler Nathan Gourley are two of America’s great young trad musicians, who have been playing music together daily since 2013. Their debut duo album, Copley Street, featuring Owen Marshall on Greek bouzouki, has an undeniable chemistry and demonstrates a nuanced understanding of each the other's playing. Their music includes offbeat settings of well-known tunes and beautiful pieces that seem to languish in obscurity. "Copley Street" is a wonderful album from two stunning young players that adds to Boston’s rich history of traditional Irish music.
