Greetings – Sister harmony trio The Roches were one of the most popular bands playing Lena’s back in the late ’70s. Just once in the late ’90s Suzzy came back on her own, so this return with her celebrated singer-songwriter daughter Lucy Wainwright Roche has been a long time coming! They are smart, warm, funny, open-hearted women and it’s going to be a night to remember.

May has arrived and our membership challenge is ON. We’re looking for 62 folks to either become members, or to upgrade a current membership. Members provide music, connection and learning from a legendary venue–and they get the front row and the couches whenever they want. 😉 Maybe your mom would like the gift of a membership! Please help. Thank you.

See you at the show,
Sarah

Longley’s gritty and tender voice delivers Americana and gospel-flavored soul, shimmering pop anthems and touches of jazz. Her fan-funded 6th album, Funeral For My Past, is a celebration of life that’s meditative, longing and cathartic.

In-person tickets
Watch on Caffe Lena TV

Whether they’re ripping through a set of original jigs and reels, adding lush three-part harmonies into traditional ballads, or slaying us with live-loop-fiddle versions of heavy metal classics, this husband-wife fronted trio knocks it out of the park. Brian Buchanan is the lead singer of Enter The Haggis, and Rose Baldino is former frontwoman of Burning Bridget Cleary. Joined by Asheville, NC vocalist-bassist Caroline Browning.
