Kerri Powers in Concert/Dynamite Shack

Kerri Powers was destined to be a musician from the start. While most kids her age spent their childhoods following frivolous pursuits, she spent hers reading, painting, writing stories, learning guitar and composing her first songs at the tender age of nine. Powers started playing professionally in local coffeehouses throughout her native New England, and went on to release several well-received albums in the new millennium, culminating in Faith in the Shadows in 2009. Two of her songs were later featured on the Fox series "Rescue Me" starring Denis Leary. After taking time off to get married and raise her young son she returned to performing, counting among her credits the Boston Folk Festival, Philadelphia Folk Festival, and Telluride Bluegrass Festival, among other prestigious gatherings. She's also toured Europe while opening for Canadian singer/songwriter Fred Eaglesmith in The Netherlands, Belgium, and the United Kingdom.

Dynamite Shack is a Rhode Island-based acoustic trio featuring Ben Coerper on upright bass and vocals, Matt Wunsch on acoustic guitar and vocals and Peter Lucci on anything he can get his hands on. Wunsch and Lucci use their flatpicking and slide guitar skills tastefully while Farmer Ben lays down the low end. Their original material is under construction currently and the boys will debut their first full length recording this June. They can hit you with a three minute two-step with slick harmonies or dive into the deep end with a five minute jam. Stand back, here comes the Shack and they're going to blow up your spot!
