Pesky J. Nixon and Miles to Dayton will both play the Steeple Coffeehouse this weekend. The double header is slated for the evening of Saturday, November 22.

Miles to Dayton’s promotion shares Relix Magazine’s description of the band as “A mix of folk, country and classical music”:

Miles to Dayton has a very polished sound reminiscent of Nickel Creek. Delivering four-part harmonies and improvisational violin and cello parts, Miles to Dayton is stacked with solid musicianship and is definitely worth checking out.

Pesky J. Nixon’s website promotes the group as “Bombastic yet brilliant”:

these boys from New England exude a genuine musical authenticity and mirth on stages up and down the East Coast. Drawing influences from contemporary urban balladeers, rowdy southern bluegrass, and the sardonic yet wry wit of New England’s localized folk scenes, Pesky J. Nixon (PJN) creates an atmosphere both inviting and challenging for audiences.

The performances take place in Pilgrim Church’s Fellowship Hall (transformed for the evening into a coffeehouse).

While enjoying the concerts, locals can enjoy coffee and dessert. Proceeds from the refreshment sales are donated to local and regional charity. As is their tradition, organizers are also requesting people to bring donations for the Southborough Food Pantry.

Doors open at 7:00 pm for the 7:30 pm show. Tickets for the evening show are $15 in advance ($12 for students/seniors) or $18 at the door ($15 for students/seniors). Advance purchase is available online.
