The Heatons’ “Back to School” concert on Sept. 17 in Harvard Square’s Club Passim combines, in typical fashion, traditional songs with whimsy. The Gaelic Storm performs at Boston’s Wilbur Theater on September 12. husband-and-wife duo will perform selections from their still-in-formation CD project, “Tell You in Earnest,” which Shannon describes as “all-dialogue bal- lads – narratives and stories that are each like a two-person play.” Playing on the beginning-of-school-year theme, the Heatons will add a pedagogical dimen- sion to the proceedings. “We’ll set it up like a classroom, with a school bell, school supplies and a whiteboard,” explains Shannon. “And each song will be used for a different subject, from math to English to driver’s ed, and we’ll figure out what we’ve all learned together.” There’s a more meaningful aspect to the show, though, she adds. “The folk tradition is so much bigger, so much older than us, and yet it remains relevant. We’re focusing on the notion that ballads can teach us some universal, enduring lessons, and we in turn can teach other in this community.

  • Tuesday's Child Is Full of Hits
    Tuesday’s Child is … Full of Hits! Renowned UK music producer Jon Astley - the man behind hit albums by The Who, Eric Clapton and Debbie Harry - has teamed up with an Irish children's charity for a fundraising CD featuring top home-grown artists. Brother-in-law of guitar legend Pete Townsend, Astley agreed to compile Tuesday's Child (named after the charity), in support of their projects in 12 poverty-stricken regions such as the shanty towns of Sao Paolo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, The Congo, Gaza and Zimbabwe, where children are suffering - and in many cases starving - from a fundamental lack of resources. The compilation album features 31 soulful tracks by Irish acts including Snow Patrol (You Could Be Happy), Ronan Keating (Heaven), Westlife (Angel), Brian Kennedy (What You Wish For), Mary Black (Speaking With The Angel), The 4 of Us (Sunlight), Duke Special (Come Wander With Me), Eleanor McEvoy (When You Smile) and Kila , who wrote a new song, Beyond , for the CD. ‘We came up with the idea of putting childhood photographs of all the artists involved on the CD cover and insert ,’ said Jon, who has recently finished working on a Boomtown Rats re-issue. ‘ It’s an evocative reminder of how innocent and vulnerable we all are as children, and of how important it is for us to do our bit to help the most underprivileged kids of this world .’ Snow Patrol singer Gary Lightbody came on board with the project after becoming an uncle for the first time . ‘ Upon my first hold of my niece Honey, I soon realised that without my sister and my brother-in- law she would be helpless,’ said Gary.
