Boston's role in the fight to end legalized slavery is linked by the Black Heritage Trail in historic Beacon Hill. This pedestrian path is best experienced on foot, in a small group, with a knowledgeable local guide! Your 2.5-hour loop tour travels from Boston Common to visit Underground Railroad sites, elite homes of "Boston Brahmins," and abolitionist landmarks such as the African Meeting House. Our small-group walking tour delves deeply into the years 1833 to 1863, the tumultuous years leading toward Civil War. We walk in the footsteps of 19th-century Bostonians, all of whom grappled with the "peculiar institution" of racial enslavement in the U.S. With a captivating storytelling approach, Hub Town Tours provides the perfect introduction to Boston's role in America's "Second Revolution." As we travel past landmarks from Civil War Boston, your guide shares the gripping story of local Bostonians finding their voices and demanding an end to injustice across their young nation.

"Wire and Bone”: CD release concert with Dave Bryant (keys/host), Jamaaladeen Tacuma (bass), George Garzone (tenor sax), Kenny Wessel (guitar), Eric Hofbauer (guitar), and Chris Bowman (drums).&nbsp;Admission at the door: $10 (cash/check/charge/venmo). <a href="https://dbryantmusic.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Dave Bryant</a> first convened the quartet of <a href="https://jamaaladeenmusic.com/home" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Jamaaladeen Tacuma</a> (bass), <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Garzone" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">George Garzone</a> (tenor sax), and <a href="https://www.chbodrums.com/pages/chris-bowman" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Chris Bowman</a> (drums) in 1989 for a weekend at the now-defunct Willow Jazz Club in Somerville MA. They reunited some 29 years later for a December 2018 recording session that has resulted in their new release, “Wire and Bone.”
They are joined on the recording by guitarists <a href="https://kenwessel.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Kenny Wessel</a> and <a href="https://www.erichofbauer.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Eric Hofbauer</a>. All six musicians will be appearing together at May’s <a href="https://dbryantmusic.com/third-thursdays/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">“Third Thursdays”</a> concert.
Bryant notes, “I’m really thrilled to bring together these wonderful musicians with whom I’ve cemented strong relationships over many years: Jamaaladeen, a mentor from my earliest days studying with Ornette Coleman in the ‘80s; George, a favorite teacher and mentor at Berklee; Chris, a Berklee classmate and longtime bandmate in the Shock Exchange trio; Kenny, a close colleague in Ornette Coleman’s Prime Time; and Eric, a collaborator on several more recent projects and our Jazz Department Head at the Longy School of Music of Bard College. We have all worked together in many different configurations, and enjoyed great friendships. This should be a very special evening!”
