Tickets are pay what you want donations, thanks to a generous grant from the NH State Council on the Arts and a partnership with Hundred Nights. Any money that comes in from these tickets will get split between our programming fund and Hundred Nights, a year-round emergency shelter and resource center here in Keene.

The human experience can be summed up as striving to find a balance between melancholy and joy. The tightrope of emotions is the backbone of the stories musicians have been yelling and singing on stages since time began. Modern Fools finds their place in those truths. Wandering song-writer and New Hampshire native Josh Blair has made his days revolve around music, playing shows since he was 14. Working in a supportive role made Josh understand how it all comes together. Compromise and connection. But in this role as leader and visionary Josh does more than shine, he feels settled. Finding his place within the balance of love and patience; this is what makes this project special. Modern Fools understand that there’s no need to rush. We’re all unfolding each day as it happens and just trying to figure out how to survive. For Modern Fools, surviving starts with melodies and chords, combined with seasoned players. If you’re looking for fellow travelers doing their best to get it right, then Modern Fools are taking off and there’s plenty of room to come along. Brattleboro guitarist and singer Aria Grace opens!
