A songwriter and performer, Chip has been playing music for nearly three decades. His music is described in his CD album notes as “a mix of acoustic folk, rock, bluegrass and jam band; down to earth art with a dash of sacred mystery. His music… will make you smile.” Chip’s songs about the world around us, the gifts of the people we know and love and the art of God's creation are filled with images “that we can be thankful for as we celebrate Thanksgiving in the coming week,” he said. Chip opened for the Little River Band one day before moving to South Salem.  Since he has made his home with us he has recently performed twice at the Horse and Hound in South Salem and has also played at the other venues in New York and Connecticut. 

Three more concerts are scheduled through the rest of the year: Common Ground Community concert on Dec. 4; Camerata d’Amici choral group on Dec. 11. and “Lessons and Carols” featuring Anthony Newman and Dec. 18th.
