Alastair Moock’s Pastures of Plenty at Club Passim
Passim, 47 Palmer Street, Cambridge, MA
Admission: $40
When Alastair Moock began his Pastures of Plenty series in Boston in 2000, the idea was to bridge some of the gaps he saw in the local music scene—between the folk and roots rock crowds, between the contemporary and traditional scenes, and between younger and older players. But what it really came down to was just bringing together some of the region’s best songwriters and musicians to swap tunes on a stage. Twenty-five years later, the series is still “the hippest hootenanny in town” ( The Boston Globe ).
