BRATTLEBORO — For the past three years, The Gaslight Tinkers have worked stages up and down both coasts and locally with their brand of Celtic/Americana/World Beat music. From clubs to live radio to music festivals, the Tinkers play traditional melodies mixed with contemporary grooves from around the world.
The band has only been around for about a year, but they say one of the secrets of their success has been the free show that they have been doing at Whetstone Station every few months.
These Thursday gigs at the Whetstone have attracted local friends, loyal fans, and pleasantly surprised bar patrons who just happen to be there. It has also served as a proving ground and “practice gig” for everything else that the Tinkers have achieved to date.
On Thursday, Dec. 17, at 8 p.m., The Gaslight Tinkers will be back at Whetstone Station playing with a fresh lineup.
Peter Siegel and Garrett Sawyer will welcome Joe Fitzpatrick on drums and Boston's Audrey Knuth on fiddle. The show will also be documented for a web video production.
