The Maine-based singer/songwriter Pete Kilpatrick grew up with a deep and resounding love of melody. With no formal training in music, Pete picked up the acoustic guitar at the age of 16 and began teaching himself how to play, crafting his own songs all while falling deeply in love with the process. He has performed over 1,000 live performances, with shows alongside Dave Matthews Band, Jason Mraz, Pearl Jam lead guitarist Mike Mccready, Ray Lamontagne, Blues Traveler frontman John Popper, Guster and many others.

This program is made possible thanks to the Friends of the Library.Free tickets are given out on the day of the concert starting at 1 p.m. Doors open at 1:30 p.m., and the show starts at 2 p.m.

Other upcoming concerts in the series include Rani Arbo and Greg Ryan on Nov. 13 and The Brother Brothers on Dec. 11.
