Music in support of New Orleans' artists

Sugar Loaf — In its ongoing commitment to help performing artists from Hurrican Katrina-torn New Orleans, the Sugarloaf Music Series will present Three-Legged Dog performing artists, The Malvinas, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, March 31, in the Pavilion of the Lycian Performing Arts Center. Jon Stein of WTBQ will be master-of-ceremonies; all proceeds go to the artists. The Malvinas, a feminist trio, perform a feisty blend of jazz, traditional and folk-pop music. They pull together a broad palette of regional colors, including the blues-tinged grooves of the deep South, the spicy Cajun flavours of Louisiana, the Celtic modes of Eastern Canada and the libertarian troubadour tradition of the Lone Star State. For more on The Malvinas and their recording, “Love, Hope and Transportation,” log on to www.themalvinas.com. Tickets are available at Village Music in Warwick. For information call 258-3019.
