For over 17 years, Donna the Buffalo has been combining reggae, rock, country, zydeco, Cajun, and folk on top of old-time fiddle music to create a combination that's all their own.

Danny Aiello | $60; $90*

Dec 12 @ 8 pm

An Oscar nominated film star (Moonstruck, Do the Right Thing), Danny Aiello released his recording debut in 2004, which charted #4 on the Billboard Traditional Jazz Chart. His no-holds-barred live show, much like his acting roles, has garnered much respect and attention from critics and fans alike with The New York Times complimenting, "Mr. Aiello's singing has the bounce of his idols Bobby Darin, Frank Sinatra and Louis Prima, and the throaty lyricism of another idol, Tony Bennett."

*Special package includes premium seating and reception with Danny Aiello.

Suzanne Vega | $60; $90*

Jan 15 @ 8 pm

Widely regarded as one of the most brilliant songwriters of her generation, Suzanne Vega emerged as a leading figure of the folk-music revival of the early 1980s. Suzanne's neo-folk style, embodied by her many hits including Tom's Diner, ushered in a new female, acoustic, folk-pop singer-songwriter movement that includes Tracy Chapman, Shawn Colvin, and the Indigo Girls.
*Special package includes premium seating and post-show reception with Suzanne Vega.
