The Kennedys, May 2, 2014Unity Hall – a great space to perform – designed for listening!
“It’s always great to perform at any venue that’s designed for listening,” said Rivergods founder Ben Parent, of Waterford. “… as opposed to a bar, which is fun for other reasons. It lets the songs shine, the music breathe … it allows for nuance and subtlety that you might sacrifice in a louder venue.” Norwich Bulletin 9/22/11General Concert Info
Free Parking
Coffee and home-baked goodies served during intermission.
Unity Hall is a welcoming, accessible performance space.
In the event of emergency cancellation or delay of a concert, you will find notice here on our website home page and, in the case of severe weather, a delay/closing notice on (Connecticut) WTNH Channel 8. We will also email folks holding advance reservations and tickets.Recent Comments

New England Folk Network Defines Folk Music
"Folk. Folk music has long relied on oral/aural transmission, which lends to its accessibility and popularity in informal social situations. For purposes of this [New England Folk Network] website and this website only, I define “folk” as acoustic-based non-theatrical vocal or instrumental music created and/or performed without reliance on a classically or academically trained musical background; also, the subsequent evolutions of this music."
