Spend a Day with Grammy-Nominated Judy Pancoast in Two-Show Event at P

WESTFORD, MA: The Parish Center for the Arts (PCA) is SO excited to announce that on February 23, nationally-known singer/songwriter and Grammy Award-Nominee Judy Pancoast will be spending the day at the PCA! Part of the PCA's Lounge Series, Judy will be coming to Westford with her musical director/accompanist Michael Pierce to present an afternoon (2pm) matinee Family Concert (all ages welcome!). Then, the dynamic duo will return at 7:30pm to present her personal and heartfelt cabaret show, "All My Best Memories: Built by The Carpenters." Love, laughs and lots of music for all ages - all in one day!

Judy Pancoast was born and raised in Waterville (ME), and went to college at University of Maine. She later got a master's degree in University of New Hampshire and performed at hundreds of schools, libraries, festivals and events nationwide. At the tender age of 11, in the summer of 1970, Judy Pancoast first heard the lovely, inimitable voice of Karen Carpenter on the radio. Thus began an obsession with the music of The Carpenters, the best-selling brother-sister musical act of the 70s, that has lasted until this day. "All My Best Memories: Built by The Carpenters" takes the audience into Judy's life as she recounts the stories of growing up a Carpenters fan and sings the songs closest to her heart. The show premiered at world-renowned cabaret club "Don't Tell Mama" in New York City to rave reviews from audience members, and has been invited back twice.

Well-known for her children's music for the last 25 years, Judy crafts clever songs with infectious melodies that delight the young and the young at heart, as evidenced by the 2011 Grammy Award nomination for Best Children’s Album for her one-of-a-kind CD, "Weird Things Are Everywhere: A Reading Road Trip with Judy Pancoast!" Judy is perhaps most well-known for her infectious Christmas hit, “The House on Christmas Street,” which can be heard each Christmas season at residential synchronized light displays and on radio stations across the country. In 2003, Judy released her debut album "Swimming in Jello" and later in 2005 she released two more albums - "The Tune Room" and "Are We There Yet".
