I've not yet visited Norfolk's Infinity Music Hall, but heard many great things about the place. On my to-do list. Starting this month, CPTV will be hosting a weekly concert series akin to Austin City Limits:
"Move over Austin City Limits. Connecticut Public Television and Infinity Music Hall & Bistro have joined forces to create a new live music concert television series for the 21st century. Premiering in May 2011, INFINITY HALL LIVE is a new CPTV-produced series of music specials that offers viewers a “best seat in the house” experience celebrating the music and energy of today’s top performers in an intimate setting. Every special will be shot at Infinity Hall, an acoustically perfect, historically-renovated 19th century hall in Norfolk, Connecticut. The hall, which opened two years ago, was once a venue for vaudeville stars, and since October 2008 has featured performers ranging from Judy Collins and Jane Monheit to Tower of Power and Leon Russell. Each episode of the INFINITY HALL LIVE TV series will include the “All Access/Backstage Pass,” offering a look at the artist offstage, both before and after the concert. While at press time the performers for the series were still being confirmed, viewers will be certain to see a top-notch collection of musical artists from rock, pop and folk music."
The schedule looks like this:
6/17/11 (9pm) - The Smithereens
6/24/11 (9pm) - Rusted Root
7/1/11 (9pm) - Open Wings Busted Strings
7/8/11 (9pm) - Jonathan Edwards
7/15/11 (9pm) - The Wailin' Jennys
7/22/11 (9pm) - Shelby Lynne (a MUST see)
7/29/11 (9pm) - Tim Reynolds & TR3
