Artist Lineup

Passim Presents
The Folk Collective: Kim MobergBorn in Juneau, Alaska, Kim calls Cape Cod, MA home. Shea began playing guitar at age 14, but severe stage fright kept her from becoming a professional performer. In 2014 Kim set out to overcome her stage fright and wrote her first song. Kim teamed with Grammy-nominated producer Jon Evans to record two albums: "Above Ground" and "Up Around The Bend." Both have received worldwide airplay, charting on the Folk Alliance International Folk DJ charts and the NACC Radio charts.

Passim Presents
The Folk Collective: Cliff NotezAward-winning multi-digital media artist, musician, organizer & filmmaker Cliff Notez's art is a continuous exploration of the black mind. Rooted in hip-hop, their art tackles the political and the personal, exploring the intimate consequences of a society where black bodies are easily ignored, forgotten, or disregarded. In 2018 they took home Best New Artist at the Boston Music Awards, and in 2020, Cliff became the first musician to be named "Musician of the Year" for Boston Magazine's 100 Most Influential Bostonians. Cliff's Second full-length album, Why The Wild Things Are, was released on September 11th, 2019.

Passim Presents
The Folk Collective: Lydia HarrellLydia "LovelySinger" Harrell is one of Boston's musical treasures. Her sultry, soulful voice and evocative songwriting have garnered her the attention and respect of the nation's finest musicians and venues. Jazz and soul are where her heart is; however, Harrell has shown an unbreakable ability to mold herself into any musical situation. Whether performing with the Boston Pops, serenading NBA fans with America's national anthem, or lending her vocal talents to chart-topping deep house singles by British record label Reel People Music, Harrell's dedication to extracting the pure essence of the song is unmatched. In addition to her accomplishments as a musical artist, Lydia is a film/TV, voiceover, and theatre actress.

Today at noon we hear from our Executive Director, Jim Wooster. His fundraiser email shares with you a glimpse into all that one could do at Passim, as there's always "More To Explore"!

Excerpts from Jim's letter:
"When it comes to Passim there is always More To Explore. We feature new and established musicians seven nights a week in our storied listening room, all sharing their lives and art with an appreciative audience. To me, there is nothing more impressive than hearing an artist entertain a room with just their voice, their instrument, and their imagination. No giant screens, backing dancers, or lip syncing needed!

As you know we rely on your generosity to help us fund all our Passim programming. We need to raise $175,000 by the end of June so we can finish our fiscal year strong, and we’re well on the way toward achieving that goal. If you haven’t already done so, please become a member or renew your membership so you’ll find out about upcoming shows and have early access to ticket sales and member-only events. If you prefer, you can send a tax-deductible donation or donate online here to help us reach our goal. A gift of any size is important, and if we all pitch in we can keep the music playing at Passim for years to come"

Tonight @ 8 pm we have the @robinsonandrohe Album

Tonight @ 8 pm we have the @robinsonandrohe Album Release with our very own Rachel Sumner & Kat Wallace opening! American songwriters Liam Robinson (banjo, accordion, vocals) and Jean Rohe (guitar, vocals) were brought together over fifteen years ago by their mutual love of afternoon song-swaps, American folk ballads, and wordplay. Since then, they’ve written a distinctive body of original repertoire that draws on the roots music they hold dear, and engages their versatile musical and literary sensibilities as arrangers, improvisers, poets, and producers. Robinson & Rohe deliver a powerful live show replete with effortless harmony singing, soulful grooves, playful humor, and razor-sharp lyrics.
