Both in-person and virtual audiences can enjoy the August line-up in Orange County Arts Council’s music series, “O.C. Live.” Tickets for live performances are $10; there is a suggested donation of $5 for Facebook live stream viewers.
On Friday, Aug. 6 at 12:30 p.m., John Burdick will perform outdoors at CoLab, 45 St. John Street, Goshen at 12:30 p.m. He is a guitarist and songwriter, best known to Hudson Valley audiences as the front man of the long-running quintet The Sweet Clementines.
On Saturday, Aug. 14 at 3 p.m., the String Trio of New York will perform indoors at The Lobby at the Ritz/Safe Harbors of the Hudson, 111 Broadway, Newburgh. Space is limited, and masks are required. Formed by three men who honed their musical skills during the legendary era of loft jazz in New York in the early 1970s, the String Trio is one of contemporary music’s most enduring chamber ensembles.
On Saturday, Aug. 21 at 2 p.m., U-Nice will perform outdoors at the Desmond Center, 6 Albany Post Road, Newburgh. She began to sing at age six, rap at age ten, and began writing at fourteen. Last spring, she released her first single, “Be Yourself.”
