Friday Night Folk returns

Friday Night Folk returns to All Souls Unitarian Universalist Congregation in New London with a performance by Richard Shindell.

As suggested by the name of the series, the show takes place Friday.

Shindell is a truly versatile and e'er questioning musician whose twinkling compositional eyes focus with moody, literate intensity on all manners of topical subjects from politics and war to prejudice and religion. "Not Far Now" is his most recent album release, and songs such as "One Man's Arkansas" and "Juggler Out in Traffic" are emblematic of his gift.

Local favorite Jim Carpenter - he of Hoolios renown - opens the show, which begins at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 in advance, $23 at the door, $10 for students with ID; (860) 447-9580, Fridaynightfolk.org.
