Mama Look! with Juge Greenspun @ South Hill Cider
Join us for a glass of cider, coctail or local beer, and farm to table food.
Mama Look! is the convergence of three singer-songwriters in the Finger Lakes, united by their deep admiration for one another’s musical and artistic journeys. For decades, Uniit Carruyo, McKenzie Jones & Amy Puryear stood as mutual supporters, but Mama Look! marks their first opportunity to create, play and shine together.
Their perspectives have been shaped by the love, grief and joy of being mamas. These many threads are woven through their songwriting, spinning tales of vulnerability and strength. Their music is raw and tender, fierce and luminous, reflecting the complexity of lives lived with open hearts. With two guitars, one cello, three distinct voices, and a rotating constellation of leadership and support, Mama Look! is a radiant celebration of connection.
Mama Look! invites audiences to join in the magic of their music ~ a community of women giving light, not dimming it, collaborating not competing. Their love for music and one another is contagious!
Juge Greenspun
These sultry singers will be joined for the evening by Juge Greenspun, who will be playing songs from his upcoming album recorded at Black Bear Recording.
The coyotes surrounded the one room shack Juge was born way up in the north country near Chelsea Vermont. You can hear the back 40 in every note Juge plucks and bellow sung, raised solely on wild game, and garden veggies, Juge grew up listening to a small handful of his mother and father’s favorite artists- Willie Nelson, Hank Williams, Taj Mahal, Otis Redding, Odetta, and Elizabeth Cotton.
Juge formed a few bands as a youngster, the longest standing being The Duck Tape Band, playing the Fingerlakes Grassroots Festival in Trumansburg NY, and would later open for a handful of his idols like Toots and Maytals and the Buddy Miles Band. While later on Juge raised a family of three and built the house he currently resides in Ithaca NY, he’s departed slightly from the jam band rock soul reggae mash-up, and has taken a deep dive into refining his songwriting where you can hear rich influences that steer toward some of his favorite writers like John Prine, Charley Pride, Colter Wall, Willie Nelson, and Bob Dylan.
