7pm
Free!

As a reporter who was the first Latina in many newsrooms, Maria Hinojosa dreamt of a space where she could create independent, multimedia journalism that explores and gives a critical voice to the diverse American experience. To that end, in 2010, she created the Futuro Media Group, an independent nonprofit organization based in Harlem, NYC with the mission to create multimedia content for and about the new American mainstream in the service of empowering people to navigate the complexities of an increasingly diverse and connected world. As the Anchor and Executive Producer of the Peabody Award winning show Latino USA, distributed by NPR, as well as Co-Host of In The Thick, Futuro Media’s new political podcast, Hinojosa has informed millions about the changing cultural and political landscape in America and abroad. Hinojosa is also Anchor and Executive Producer of the PBS show America By The Numbers, the first national television series to examine our country’s dramatic demographic shifts, and Humanizing America, a digital video series that deconstructs stereotypes about the American electorate. Hinojosa is also a new contributor to the long running award-winning news program CBS Sunday Morning, and is a frequent guest on MSNBC.

More about Cierra Fragale:
https://www.ciarrafragale.com/about

Ciarra Fragale is a singer/songwriter and actor from Montgomery, NY. Embracing performing from a young age, Ciarra picked up her first guitar at age six, and immediately found her second home between her hands. Listening to a diverse array of artists growing up (such as Joni Mitchell, Pat Benatar, and Bon Iver), Ciarra crafted her style of songwriting by blending the old with the new, giving her folk music a soulful, indie edge.

Ciarra began writing original music as a teenager. After honing her craft for several years, she recorded her first EP, "As We Go", at Adirondack Sonic Studios in October 2016. Riding on the EP's momentum, Ciarra wrote, produced, and recorded her full-length album "Seasons"(released April 2017). She has also made a name for herself as a composer for various theatrical productions. In the last year, the singer/songwriter has toured the Northeast, and has played acclaimed venues such as Rockwood Music Hall, The Bitter End, and Putnam Den. A second LP is currently in the works for 2018.

Mike is a local MASS MoCA crew legend. And who knew he could rip up the Uke? He also frequent's Bishops lounge in Northampton, MA, providing Western Mass Folk with a taste of his favorite musicians. 

Mike Started out Singing for punk/emo band The Smokey Wambas in the early 2000s, then fell into playing solo guitar and soon stumbled upon the uke.
