Seven Times Salt
Early music / folk band
About
Praised for creative programming and an “impeccably balanced sound”, Seven Times Salt has performed at venues throughout New England including Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts, The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Plimoth Plantation, Boston Public Library, New England Folk Festival, WGBH radio, and many others. Founded in 2003, we have researched and presented original programs for music festivals, college residencies, theatrical productions, historical societies, and our own self-produced concert series. We encourage our listeners to smile, laugh, tap their feet, and join the party. We delight in blurring the lines between “art music” and folk tunes, and feel at ease performing in the concert hall, the dance hall, or the beer hall!
