HAND PICKED BY JOE CIROTTI • JUNE
When we reached out to Joe a few months ago to talk about creating something together, the goal wasn’t to launch another concert series.
The idea was simple.
Bring great people into a room.
Musicians Joe believes in. Artists who inspire him. Friends, collaborators, heroes, hidden gems, and the occasional surprise. Give them a stage, give them an audience that truly listens, and let the music do the rest.
Two months in, Hand Picked has become exactly what we hoped it would be.
Every Thursday feels a little different. Some nights are intimate. Some nights are unpredictable. Some nights turn into collaborations nobody saw coming. Some nights leave musicians and audience members lingering long after the last song because nobody’s quite ready for it to end.
Most importantly, it’s become a community.
We can’t thank all of you enough for embracing it.
June 4 • Alex Radus featuring Daniela Fischetti
Alex Radus is one of the most respected songwriters in the area. A phenomenal guitarist, storyteller, and performer, Alex has a rare gift for connecting with a room and making every song feel personal. Joining him is the incredible Daniela Fischetti, whose songwriting, voice, and fiddle playing have earned her a devoted following of her own. This is a lineup packed with talent from top to bottom.
June 11 • Nick Dunbar with Mike Alexander & Pete Lister
Nick Dunbar is a songwriter’s songwriter. Honest, thoughtful, and deeply rooted in American musical traditions, his songs have a timeless quality while remaining entirely his own. Combined with the musicianship of Mike Alexander and Pete Lister, this promises to be one of those nights you’ll be talking about long after it’s over.
June 18 • Cat Cirotti
Some nights feel special before the first note is played.
Cat Cirotti is Joe’s sister, and opportunities to see them share a stage together don’t come around often. The musical bond between siblings is something you can’t manufacture. It’s built over a lifetime. We expect this to be one of the most personal, heartfelt, and memorable evenings of the entire series.
June 25 • The Hand Picked Players
The month closes with the band that has become the heartbeat of Hand Picked. Joe Cirotti, Wayne Lyle, Caleb Estey, Joe Biglin, and friends have helped create some truly unforgettable moments over these first few months, and we’re excited to see where they take things next.
From Joe and everyone at the Pattenburg House, thank you for helping this grow into something so meaningful.
If you’ve been with us since the beginning, thank you.
If you’ve been thinking about checking it out, June is the perfect time to jump in.
