SUMMARY:Back Porch Music - The Nields - Hancock Shaker Village
DESCRIPTION:The Nields is a duo from Western Massachusetts\, comprised of sisters Nerissa and Ketryna Nields. The group has been putting out records since the early 90s\, and have released twenty albums. \n“On first listen\, some might glibly categorize this acoustic folk trio-turned-modern rock quintet as Alanis Fronts the Indigo Girls. But listen to [the Nields] twice and you’ll start to catch the twists in the tales\, the quirks and ironies that make every song a short story. And then you’ll be hooked.” -SPIN Magazine \nTickets are $25/day of ($20/advance); kids 12 and under are free. Reserve tickets online or call 413.443.0188\, ext 0.  Click here to purchase tickets! \nConcerts are on the back porch and guests sit on the lawn. Bring your own blanket or lawn chair.
