SUMMARY:Great Music with Good Friends: A Fundraiser Concert featuring The Speed of Sound & MKTrio
DESCRIPTION:Join Midcoast Music Academy for an evening of live music with The Speed of Sound and MKTrio! \nThe Speed of Sound is a Maine-based indie band that blends sharp musicianship\, melodic sensibilities\, and a love for timeless songwriting. Fronted by our good friend Spencer Albee on lead vocals\, vintage keyboards\, and rhythm guitar\, the group also features MCMA instructor Zachary Bence (lead guitar\, background vocals)\, Jake Greenlaw (drums\, background vocals)\, and Caleb Sweet (bass\, background vocals).

MCMA alumni Myles and Owen grew up in Midcoast ME\, forever in debt to the angels at MCMA\, but August is from The Big Apple. They describe their music as loud\, quiet\, medium\, good\, bad\, ugly\, locally grown and unflinching. \nThis all-ages fundraiser features a cash bar and raffle\, with proceeds supporting Midcoast Music Academy’s founding principal to never turn a dedicated student away. \nTickets are $30 in advance ($15 for students) or $35 at the door and can be purchased at www.midcoastmusicacademy.com/mcma-concert .

SUMMARY:The Lion Sisters
DESCRIPTION:The Lion Sisters are a sibling duo from New Hampshire whose music is defined by the natural synchronicity that comes from growing up and creating together. With Josi on fiddle and vocals\, and Lily on guitar and vocals\, their tight harmonies and effortless onstage connection form the core of their sound and set them apart in the modern acoustic landscape. \nTheir music blends folk and bluegrass with Irish fiddle\, vintage country\, and subtle pop and rock influences\, creating a style that feels both rooted and refreshingly original. Rather than fitting into a single genre\, The Lion Sisters have shaped a musical identity that is distinctly their own—warm\, melodic\, and contemporary while honoring traditional acoustic foundations. Their debut EP\, released in January 2025\, consists of six original songs recorded by Nashville music producer Jim Prendergast.
