The region’s emergency first responders deserve a round of applause for their work assisting Vermonters. The Spruce Peak Performing Arts Center celebrates first responders’ contributions to local communities with an evening of rollicking live music. The Emergency First Responders Soul & Blues Bash features Dave Keller’s Soul Revue, a high-energy ensemble fronted by Montpelier guitarist Keller (pictured). Performing with a full band, including singers Pam McCann and April Caspari along with the Mo’ Sax Horns, the award-winning musician serves up songs from his 2018 album Every Soul’s a Star. John Fusco and the X-Road Riders, with Vermont axe man Seth Yacovone, round out the bill.

Price: $18-28.
