A few places have closed for the season and there aren’t as many tourists around. Traffic is lighter. The Cut Bridge isn’t always up. But that doesn’t mean you can wait until the last minute to get tickets to concerts at Shalin Liu. That’s because with a world-class music venue down the road in Rockport, the season never really ends — at least not the music season. Many of their concerts are already sold out — or nearly sold out, meaning you have to call the box office to see if there are any seats left, namely: Capital Steps and Arlo Guthrie. There are still a few tickets left for Jonathan Edwards and Peter Wolf, but not many. And the Cape Ann Big Band matinee on Dec 8 is nearly sold out too. There are still some good orchestra seats for The Freddy Cole Quartet on next Friday, Nov 15, but they’re going fast too. Check out his video below:
So the moral of the story is that just because it’s getting cold out doesn’t mean you can wait until the last minute to get tickets to world-class concerts at Cape Ann’s premier concert venue!

Over the course of their 30-plus year career, The Holmes Brothers– bassist/vocalist Sherman Holmes, guitarist/pianist/vocalist Wendell Holmes, drummer/vocalist, and brother-in-spirit Popsy Dixon–have been feeding the souls of their devoted and ever-growing fan base with a joyous and moving blend of blues, gospel, soul, R&B, rock ‘n’ roll, and country. Their amazing three-part harmony singing, mixing Wendell’s gruff and gravelly vocals with Popsy’s soaring falsetto and Sherman’s rich baritone brings the soul and spirit of gospel music into everything they perform. Equally gripping is the rhythmic foundation laid down by Sherman’s bass playing and Popsy’s drumming, complimenting Wendell’s blues-soaked guitar solos and church-inspired piano playing.
