The Junk Kitchen Concert Series

The Junk Kitchen Concert Series The Junk Kitchen Concert Series produces thematic musical performances around creative concepts and social issues.

Ben Dicke and Esther Viola Kurtz founded The Junk Kitchen Concert Series in 2012. Using music as a medium for dialogue, the series fosters interaction between audience members, musicians, and local organizations. By pairing diverse topics with eclectic musical material, the series relates music back to everyday life. A cast of innovative musicians hosts each show, encouraging audience participatio

n and engagement with topical issues. The conceptual themes range from the serious to the absurd, addressing everything from the artistic relevance of smooth jazz, or the threat of global water scarcity, to the musical virtues of the Chickadee.

Due to the City of Boston's recent decision to host the 4th of July fireworks on the 3rd (at the same time as our show) which may lead to a bit of a travel nightmare for some and perhaps a conflict of interest for the rest of you - we decided to postpone this "H***y Tonk'n Heart Break" show till a later date - Stay tuned!- Have a happy 4th Y'all!
