Indie folk-rock duo the Ballroom Thieves hail from New England where their big-hearted, energetic sound has evolved worldwide since gaining audience in 2010. Calin Peters (vocals, cello, bass), Martin Earley (vocals, guitar) continue to write and share music at a feverish pace. After a major car accident and the departure of a band member, the duo have found endless sources of inspiration. They celebrate their upcoming release “Clouds” – a lush meditation on longing to return to touring (“to see different sunsets, roads“), but also a reflection of its difficulties.

The Ballroom Thieves will take the stage at 7:30 PM

Our warm-up act will perform on piano from 6:00 to 7:20.

See below for important information about the evening’s performance.

The Loft at Hermit Woods

A Listening Room Experience

Hermit Woods is excited to bring talented artists from across New England and beyond to perform for you. We hope to provide you with an intimate, up-close, and personal experience with the artists. To do this, we ask that our audience please refrain from talking during the featured show. Your silence will allow both the artists and the audience to immerse themselves in the experience, which is not otherwise possible in larger, noisier environments.

All shows commence at 6:00 PM with a warm-up artist. We encourage you to arrive early and enjoy food and wine until 7:20 while listening to our first act of the evening. The kitchen will close at 7:00. We will introduce the featured artists at 7:20, and we will ask that the audience remain quiet during their performance. The first set will be from 7:30 to 8:15. There is a short intermission from 8:15 to 8:30, at which time you are encouraged to interact, freshen your drinks, and use the restrooms as needed. At 8:30, the show resumes with the second set, concluding between 9:00 and 9:15. After the show, we invite you to interact with the artists and purchase any music or merchandise offerings if available.
