The High Street Coffee House is a “Open Mic” venue, welcoming musicians, poets and comedians to take the “virtual” zoom stage for two or three songs, depending on the number of performers that sign up.  Music starts at 7pm and can be viewed live by joining us via the zoom link listed on Facebook for the event. The evening is wrapped up by 9:30pm.

Admission is FREE, though a “virtual” donation basket is passed and you can make a donation anytime by visiting 
https://www.boscawencongregationalchurch.com/donate-today.html.  Proceeds help keep the music going and support the Boscawen Congregational Church.  

For June through September, we plan to hold the Coffee House outside at the Church Park, located at the intersection of Routes 3 & 4 in Boscawen.  This event will be held the 2nd Saturday of the month and will be 4 to 7pm making it family friendly following COVID safety guidelines.  

Though no one knows the outcome of the pandemic, we all hope that by fall we will be back together in person at the town hall. 

To ask questions or to sign up for the open mic, call Liz 848-2410 or email HighStreetCoffeeHouse@gmail.com.

BOSCAWEN'S HIGH STREET COFFEE HOUSE
FEATURES GREEN HERON - 7PM MARCH 5TH 

Picture
Join us 7PM Friday, March 5th at Boscawen’s High Street “Virtual” Coffee House with Green Heron as our feature musicians.   The High Street Coffee House is a “Open Mic” venue, welcoming musicians, poets and comedians to take the “virtual” stage for two to three songs.  Music starts at 7pm and the evening is typically wrapped up by 9:30pm.  Admission is FREE, though a “virtual” donation basket is passed and you can make a donation anytime by visiting https://www.boscawencongregationalchurch.com/donate-today.html.

The music of Green Heron stretches across the entire folk landscape. Old-time, folk, bluegrass, country, Irish and blues music are all represented as the band brings the back porch to the stage. Featuring Betsy Heron (formerly Green) on fiddle, banjo and vocals, and Scott Heron on guitar, banjo and vocals, the duo has been sharing New England stages together since 2016. The two songwriters weave the contemporary with the traditional and deliver high energy performances.

Betsy, brought up playing country and rock 'n' roll with her family's band in rural Massachusetts, still plays alongside her three sisters in The Green Sisters. Meanwhile, Scott spent several years in various metal bands touring New England and much of the country before discovering folk and bluegrass. Despite their very different backgrounds in music, the pair still draws from their roots when writing and performing and have found a common love for Americana music.

To date, Green Heron has self-released two albums: Folk Heroes in 2018 and New Pair of Shoes in 2019. The latter of which was originally recorded as part of the RPM Challenge — an annual challenge that tasks songwriters to record 10 tracks of original music all within the month of February. It wasn't until the last day of the month that the duo decided to take up the challenge. Self-produced and self-recorded, the band completed New Pair of Shoes within 12 hours.

Throughout their home state of New Hampshire, the duo has been featured in a variety of publications and have made appearances on several television and radio stations including WMUR, NHPR, WKXL, and WSCA. In the summer of 2020, the group was featured on WMUR's New Hampshire Chronicle as part of their Summer Songfest. New Hampshire Magazine featured Green Heron among the Editor's Choice picks for their Best of 2020 issue and Seacoast Edge listed both Folk Heroes and New Pair of Shoes among their best albums of 2018 and 2019 respectively.
The band occasionally performs on stage and records in-studio with a variety of acts throughout New Enlgand. The two founded the Americana quartet Mama Ain't Dead and released their self-titled debut album in September 2019. The pair also play alongside the folk and Irish group The Spain Brothers (formerly of Makem and Spain).
​
Green Heron has shared the stage with several touring acts including The Del McCoury Band, The Way Down Wanderers, and Them Coulee Boys in world-class venues such as Prescott Park, Club Passim, The Burren, Riverwalk Cafe, Word Barn, and Book and Bar.
