Pity the fate!

This Saturday (Sept. 19th, 2026) A.J. will present ballads of larceny and retribution on land and on sea, buoyed by historical context and a treasury of trivia. Live at the Somerville Armory Cafe, there will also be a Zoom livestream option available - preregister here.

Please be aware: these are traditional ballads about crime, and may contain sensitive content.

Hello, friends!

Here's the reveal of what's been occupying a lot of my time for the last few months. I just have a little bit further to go with it, and I need your help to finish it!

After many months of sitting and working with a set of recordings from a year ago (with incredible long time Sea Music Festival audio engineer Dennis Cook), I'm now in the final push to try and get it completed for June, 2026.

The holidays are fast approaching and I’ll be bringing my second-favorite genre (Christmas music) to you throughout the month! Scroll down to see where I’ll be playing over the next month.

Some nice background music with James Weitlauf– drop by and check out the vendors!

Hi friends,
Just a short letter to send out the updated dates and information for my December shows.
See me locally every night of Lantern Light Village in Mystic (except the 20th) and ask for your favorite pre-1876 carols. December 20th, come sing back the daylight in New York City with an amazing set of musicians and a new mummer’s play. Skylark will be celebrating five years of playing together on Dec. 26th at a great multi-band holiday show in Norwich. And, of course, mark your calendars for our March show. Links and more details for everything below.
Stay warm, stay singing, see you soon,

- A
