CANCELLED: 1st Concert at the Arts Center: The Appleseed Collective, Monday, May 23

Category:Concerts

The Appleseed Collective concert for Monday night is CANCELLED. One of the band members has taken ill and we therefore have to cancel the concert. If you purchased tickets in advance, you may redeem for ticket for a future concert or request a refund.

The Huntingdon County Arts Center will host its 1st concert with The Appleseed Collective on Monday, May 23 at 7 pm. Come enjoy the comfort of our concert venue.

Formed in 2010, The Appleseed Collective become a force of nature powered by their local community and developed by a strong sense of do-it-yourself drive. In an age of corporations and climate change, the band’s commitment to buying & selling local, eating from gardens, and being their own bosses has led to the kind of success that feels simply organic.

Each part of the Collective comes together to form an amalgam of complementary and contrasting elements. With a Motown session musician for a father, guitarist Andrew Brown was exposed to pre-World War II jazz on a trip to New Orleans. Shortly afterwards a chance meeting introduced him to Brandon Smith, violinist, mandolinist and improvisatory magician who grew up playing old time fiddle music. Vince Russo, multi-percussionist and van-packing savant, blends influences of funk, jazz and rock n’ roll on the washboard. Eric O’Daly comes from a background of choral singing and studies in Indian classical music and provides the bottom end on the upright bass. The whole band sings in harmony.

The Appleseed Collective is not a bluegrass band. It’s not The Hot Club of Paris. It’s not a ragtime cover band. The Appleseed Collective represents Americana music rooted in traditions from all over the world and from every decade, creating a live experience that welcomes every soul and is impossible to replicate. Appleseed has been a hit at Folk College, so they are no strangers to coming to Huntingdon.

Audiences have been mesmerized by The Appleseed Collective’s music and performances. If you haven’t seen them yet, treat yourself.

The Huntingdon County Arts Center (formerly the 12th Street Methodist Church) is located at the corner of 12th & Mifflin St, Huntingdon, PA.

Tickets are $20 for the general public and $16 for current Arts Council members and students (with ID). Children under 12 are free.
