We will kick off the 2025 Johnstown Midsummer Concert Series with Reese Fulmer and The Carriage House Band. Mike Herman will open the show.
Cutting his teeth as the manager of the iconic Saratoga Springs listening room Caffe Lena, Reese Fulmer has emerged “with a poet’s sensibility rich with great storytelling and a healthy dose of irony.” (Viv Nesbitt, Art of the Song) The 2023 and 2024 Americana Artist of the Year at the Thomas Edison Music Awards, Reese and his band have become one of the fastest-rising groups in upstate NY with expansive live albums highlighting a reputation for compelling performances. With a rotating cast of talented players, a broad and dynamic body of work, and a refusal to set anything in stone, their shows are always fresh, full of joy, and hard to describe. Think Wilco with hints of Prine and Zappa: "smart, emotionally tuned arrangements and a stage presence that balanced earnestness with unpredictability. Their live performance thrives in the liminal space between genres folk, Americana, jazz and the result is a sound that’s complex without being convoluted." (NYSMusic)
Solo acoustic blues singer-songwriter will open the show.
The Johnstown Midsummer Concert Series is free to attend and open to all, thanks to financial support from the City of Johnstown and many local donors. Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets.
In the event of rain, the show will take place inside St. John’s Episcopal Church, adjacent to the park.
