How to get there

On the Patricia Neal Stage

Led by Chappaquiddick-based composer, singer, and harpist Thistle Jemison, THISTLE creates atmospheric chamber-folk music at the intersection of South Indian classical, Western classical, jazz, and folk traditions. Described by Chamber Music America as “beautiful, unique, and hypnotic,” the trio’s music seeks to evoke mystery, wonder, and a sense of the spiritual world beyond the veil. 

Jemison is accompanied by percussionist Roxan Jurkevich and flutist Dominique Gagné, and Vineyard singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Nina Violet will join on viola, as a special guest. The evening will feature music from THISTLE’s Mysterious Star: A Tribute to Poe, a 2024 album inspired by the poems and stories of Edgar Allan Poe. Weaving harp, voice, flute, percussion, and orchestral instrumentation into Jemison’s original compositions, the group will transform Poe’s works, including “The Raven” and “The Masque of the Red Death,” into a mesmerizing musical experience perfect for a spooky night in late October.
