Who needs thanksgiving dinner when you’ve got a feast of a show just around the corner? Join us at Crazy Chester 2025 THIS SATURDAY, 11.29 for Carrboro’s annual tribute to The Band and The Last Waltz. With an incredible lineup of talented local musicians and dear friends, this is my favorite holiday tradition to take part in.
This year is extra special because not only will I be reprising my role as Emmylou Harris, @sugareestringsociety will be kicking the whole thing off for the very first time with songs of protest, hope, and change.
hope to see you there, friends and neighbors! tickets are going fast - get yours online through Cat’s Cradle’s website before they’re gone!
love + solidarity,

Hello!
Rehearsals are underway for our 5th (!) annual Last Waltz Thanksgiving blowout at @catscradlenc - this year it’s Saturday 11/29. We have new songs, new guests, and our largest horn section yet. Stoked to have @sugareestringsociety open the show so come early. 12 days to go, ticket link in bio!
I've been doing the @jonimitchell thing for a while now (swipe to see my debut @tin_roof_charleston 7 years ago for their annual Halloween Cover Show) & coming up at the end of the month is the 5th year of me reprising my role with @crazychesternc !
Her music means so much to me & I'm so grateful to my mother for buying her 'greatest hits' CD all those years ago for me to discover on the shelf as a kid. 💖
Year 5 is upon us!
See you at @catscradlenc on Saturday 11/29 for our fifth annual Last Waltz Thanksgiving Weekend extravaganza - we’re thrilled to have @sugareestringsociety open the show this year so come early.
You know the songs, you know the show; bring your families and dancing shoes with a beer in your hand and a song in your heart. See you next month!

Hey friends!
We’re shaking off the rust three weeks from today at @thecavenc for a hot, sweaty time. Jones will be playing a real piano! Come for the REAL basement tapes.
You don’t have to wait all the way to Thanksgiving this time. Come with a beer in your hand and a song in your heart.
Thurs 6/19/25 - no opener. We’ll start at 8:30 and play till the cows come home. Moo. Pay what you want!
See you soon
That’s year 4 in the books - our deepest thank you to all who attended and performed. We’ll see you in 2025 :) Mark Sat. 11/29/25 in your calendar and we will too ;)
