Join us on Sunday, February 15 at 4:00 PM at Munsey Memorial United Methodist Church for an exceptional afternoon of organ music featuring world‑renowned organist Dr. Stephen Hamilton.

For more than four decades, Stephen Hamilton has been a leading presence on the American and international organ scene. Hamilton has appeared in many of the world’s most celebrated venues, including Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, Westminster Abbey, and St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, as well as major cathedral and concert settings throughout the United States.

Dr. Hamilton is Minister of Music Emeritus at the historic Church of the Holy Trinity in New York City, where he served for many years as organist, conductor, and artistic director of a nationally recognized concert series. A respected educator, he has held faculty positions at institutions including the Manhattan School of Music and has been a frequent clinician for the American Guild of Organists.

At Munsey Church, Dr. Hamilton will perform works by Reger, Pasquini, Valente, J.S. Bach, Franck, and Ginastera, showcasing the rich tonal resources of the R. A. Colby pipe organ.
Admission is free, and no tickets are required.
The concert begins Sunday, February 15 at 4:00 PM, at Munsey Memorial United Methodist Church.

Join us on Friday, February 21, 2026 at 7:00 pm for Kelsey Waldon and Gabe Lee at the Jackson Theatre in Historic Jonesborough, TN.

Kelsey Waldon has earned wide praise for her “self-penned compositions [with] the patina of authenticity” (Rolling Stone). On her new album, Every Ghost, she confronts addiction, grief, generational trauma, and even herself — and comes through it stronger and at peace. Her fearlessness is among the reasons she landed at Oh Boy Records in 2019, as the independent label’s first new signee in 15 years. It’s attracted fans to her headline tours and her festival sets, and prompted artists including Tyler Childers, Charley Crockett, Robert Earl Keen, Margo Price, and Lucinda Williams to invite her on tour. It helped earn her both the title of “Kentucky Colonel” — an honor recognizing goodwill ambassadors of Kentucky’s culture and traditions — and a spot in the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum’s annual American Currents exhibit in 2024.

Storytelling has been an anchor of Gabe Lee’s music since the very beginning. He launched his career as a genre-bending musician after returning to Tennessee, quickly progressing from dive bar gigs to high-profile opening slots (including shows with Jason Isbell, Los Lobos, and other artists who, like him, blurred the lines between roots-rock, country, and other forms of American folk music) to his own headlining shows. Lee isn’t just writing songs about himself; he’s writing songs about all of us. And maybe, in doing so, he can bring us a little closer together.

Tickets are between $15-$25 for reserved seating and can be purchased at THEJACKSONTHEATRE.COM
