South Shore Conservatory Presents Headin' Home

South Shore Conservatory’s (SSC) Coffee Break Concert Series presents Headin’ Home on Tuesday, April 25, 11 am at SSC’s Ellison Center for the Arts, 64 St. George Street in Duxbury. The Coffee Break Concert Series, free and open to the public, is sponsored by The Village at Duxbury.

Hailing from the highlands of Western Connecticut, father-daughter duo Headin' Home creates a joyous sound, flowing easily from their love of sharing music together. Christine Hedden, fiddle and Dan Hedden, guitar and vocals, perform repertoire that draws upon New England folk music and Irish traditions, as well as American singer/songwriters and original tunes. In June 2013, they released their debut album "The Baker's Dozen" and are looking forward to a second album, soon to come. Their program features tunes and song from Irish and New England tradition, as well as original tunes grown from traditional roots.

After the performance audience members are invited to stay, meet the performers and enjoy complimentary coffee, tea and breakfast treats. If they prefer, concertgoers may bring their own bag lunch.

This series is part of SSC’s Adult Learning initiative, offering a full range of arts experiences – concerts, group classes, private lessons, and performance opportunities – designed to challenge adult minds, stimulate creativity and build vibrant social connections.

South Shore Conservatory is committed to being an organization that welcomes the widest range of audience members possible - removing barriers to participation and welcoming everyone in, regardless of ability. Its Duxbury campus is wheelchair accessible. For more detailed information about accessibility, please visit SSC’s Know Before You Go page.
