Heritage Conservancy Announces Lineup for Concerts in the Garden
Concerts in the Garden begins June 18.
Heritage Conservancy, an accredited not-for-profit land conservation organization dedicated to protecting and preserving our natural and historic heritage, has announced the first round of musical acts for “Concerts in the Garden,” an outdoor summer concert series that the Conservancy is hosting at its headquarters of historic Aldie Mansion in Doylestown. Headlined by esteemed local musicians, the inaugural concert will be held on June 18, 2014 from 6:30 to 8:30 PM.
Just as William and Martha Mercer, the original owners of Aldie Mansion, held outdoor recitals on the lawn over 85 years ago, Heritage Conservancy is keeping this tradition alive by hosting “Concerts in the Garden.” While the heritage of the mansion serves as a backdrop, musical performances will showcase the local talent that we have right here in our community. And when it comes to musicians John Beacher, LisaBeth Weber, and Brad Staudle, there is no shortage of talent.
Touted as a modern-day Bob Dylan, John Beacher has a distinct, vocal style that’s dripping with soul and full of funk. LisaBeth Weber, a singer-songwriter from New Hope, PA, has appeared live on WXPN with Michaela Majoun, Gene Shay, and Kathy O'Connell and has had two of her songs featured on NPR’s CARTALK. Brad Staudle, an up-and-coming singer-songwriter who’s full of talent, has been hailed as a tremendous harmony man. This strong lineup is just the right cast to begin a concert series that is sure to be a rocking good time!
