Calling all outdoor enthusiasts and music lovers! Join us in scenic locations across the state with some of your favorite performing artists for a special, unplugged live music experience like no other. These acoustic shows are unique opportunities to enjoy live music in community and nature.
On Sunday, July 13th join Matt the Electrician, Erin McKeown, and Natalia Zukerman for a special “Family Game Night” Scenic Songs Two-Part Event at Notchview!
Family Game Night is a unique live show featuring Matt the Electrician and a rotating cast of songwriters from his long-running weekly song game. Set up in the round, these old friends will be swapping stories and sharing songs born from the same playful prompts with radically different results. Expect a mix of heartfelt ballads, silly snippets, clever wordplay, and unexpected musical twists. With plenty of laughter, camaraderie, and the occasional audience participation, Family Game Night celebrates the joy of songwriting and the magic of spontaneous creativity.
This unplugged show at 5:30pm will take place in a field a short walk from the parking and visitor center. We recommend guests bring a camp stool or blanket for comfortable seating at showtime. We will also have a limited number of camp stools available for use.
Hike with the Artists
Interested in extending your experience? Join all three artists on the trail prior to showtime for a special Guided Hike with the Artists. This more limited capacity add-on experience offers participants the opportunity to get to know the artists and each other with time together out on the trail.
Accompanied by a staff guide, we will hike a 2.5-mile loop that includes one steady .25 mile incline at the beginning followed by gentler, rolling terrain throughout. After walking along one of our most popular trails, the group will encounter the best vista at Notchview, Trela Shelter and Sawmill Field, set against the backdrop of the Hoosac Range. Hike will set off from the visitor center at 3:30pm, with a break to settle in at the performance site before the concert begins at 5:30pm.
We invite guests to join for the unplugged concert only, or purchase a combo ticket for the concert and hike combined experience. Please note, registration is required and space is limited.
