Print Story | Email Story
GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — Singer-songwriter Amanda Pascali will perform at the Indigo Room on Saturday, March 21 at 8 p.m.  
 
According to a press release:
 
As the rising voice of America's most ethnically diverse generation of young people, singer-songwriter Amanda Pascali writes music that speaks to the experience of growing up as a first-generation American. After her songs went viral on social media, she amassed hundreds of thousands of fans around the globe. Now, her long-awaited new record, Roses and Basil (a collection of Sicilian-English translations and original music produced by Robert Ellis), has been praised by NPR, the Bluegrass Situation, and numerous international outlets. Her music, described as “immigrant American folk,” delivers a powerful narrative on being “too foreign for here, too foreign for home, and never enough for both,” as Pascali puts it.  
 
Tickets are $35 general admission, café table seating. 
 
Tickets can be purchased online at mahaiwe.org, or by calling or visiting the Box Office, 413-528-0100, on Wednesday through Saturday from noon to 4 p.m.

Letter: Southern Berkshire Ambulance Expresses Gratitude for Support

Letter to the Editor

To the Editor:

Over the next nine months, the Southern Berkshire Ambulance Squad (SBAS) will take delivery of two new ambulances, at a cost of roughly $1 million, to replace two vehicles that are very much on their last wheels. Lacking that $1 million, SBAS had to put out an emergency call of its own. I write to share the wonderful news that Berkshire Preservation Inc. (BPI) more than answered our call.

BPI's board, which includes Carole Owens, Louis Schroeter, Wende and David Carver, Nelson Furlano, and Todd Ehrlich worked tirelessly to organize a benefit concert at the Colonial Theatre that netted $98,877 for SBAS. We saw firsthand how hard they worked to bring it off, and we could not be more grateful to be the beneficiaries of their efforts and generosity.

SBAS answers your emergency calls 24/7/365. It means a great deal to us that when we were the ones in need, BPI answered ours. If you would like to learn more about BPI, and you should, please go to preservationinc.org.

With deep gratitude,

Ken Schumacher
Great Barrington, Mass. 

Ken Schumacher is president of the board of directors
of the Southern Ambulance Squad
