June 11 - Cricket Tell the Weather (American Roots): A family-friendly, five-piece string band whose members share a love of American traditional music. Their seamless blend of traditional mountain music and indie pop sensibilities is hauntingly melodic and exuberant.  Tickets to Cricket Tell the Weather at Caramoor@KMA can be purchased at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/697919.

July 16 - PROJECT Trio (Classical): PROJECT Trio is a passionate, high energy chamber music ensemble comprised of three virtuosic composer/performers from Brooklyn, New York who blend their classical training with an eclectic taste in musical styles. PROJECT Trio is a musical experience not to be missed. Tickets to PROJECT Trio at Caramoor@KMA can be purchased at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/704454.

July 30 - Alexis Cole Quintet (Jazz): With a deep contralto voice “as smooth and dark as the richest espresso,” award-winning jazz vocalist Alexis Cole has made an impressive impact. The Jazz Times says “Cole’s easy sense of swing is strongly reminiscent of Sarah Vaughan,” and the Swing Journal raves, “we've been waiting for the next great singer to come along, and finally... Alexis.”  Tickets to Alexis Cole Quintet at Caramoor@KMA can be purchased at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/704510
