Tonight at Raven Hollow Winery!

Happy Friday!

It’s been a beautiful and temperate week – perfect conditions to relax outdoors while this lovely, warm weather continues.

Come by Raven Hollow Winery in Westfield, tonight!  Bring a picnic dinner and try out some of their lovely fruit wines!
It’s really a wonderfully serene, scenic spot to kick back for a little while on a nice evening and I’m delighted to be there from 6pm – 8pm tonight, singing and playing acoustic tunes under their picnic tent out in the field.  Join us!

This Week’s TRIPLE THREAT Lineup!

Come out to any of these great venues this weekend to catch the Merrill Shepard Solo Acoustic show and maybe a bite to eat or something to drink!

As a special bonus, on Friday and Sunday I will be joined for a few numbers by the very talented Jonny Taylor!  Don’t miss the duo!

FRIDAY, 7/24, 7pm – 10pm at Pinocchio’s Ristorante
2054 Bridge Street, Three Rivers, MA

Seriously excellent Italian fare to be enjoyed here.  Impressive menu, savvy staff, comfortable atmosphere and delicious food and wines to pair.  Back when I was living a bit closer, this place was a rather frequent indulgence!

– SATURDAY, 7/25, 9:30pm – 1am at McLadden’s Northampton
27 Pleasant Street, Northampton, MA

Only about a hundred craft beers on tap here to sample, not to mention the extensive bourbon & whiskey list and specialty cocktail menu.  Darkened, moody, late-night pub atmosphere, very knowledgeable & friendly staff and tasty bar apps too, if you’re hungry!

– SUNDAY, 7/26, 3pm – 6pm on the patio at Sláinte Restaurant
80 Jarvis Ave, Holyoke, MA

…Quite possibly my favorite place to play!  Beautiful, open-air patio surrounded by well-manicured flora.  Attentive service, great food & cocktails, all-around awesome spot to sit and relax outdoors.  Try the sangria!
