On stage around 5:30pm….Peter J. Newland & RadioX

In 1968, vocalist and songwriter Peter J. Newland, with guitarists Michael Benson and Jim Kaminski, bassist Guy DeVito, and drummer William Benjamin, created a musical entity known as FAT. In an era when most bands were playing top 40 covers, FAT began writing original music. They were soon signed to RCA records, and they continue to play annual reunions in western Massachusetts to this day. In 1985, Peter moved to Nashville and worked as staff writer for Paul Overstreet and Fitzgerald/Hartley. He had songs cut by Hank Williams Jr., Alan Jackson, Tracy Lawrence, and others. Peter moved back to Springfield, Mass. in 2002, and has founded The RadioX Band, performing his original music, as well as adaptations of their favorite artists including Bob Dylan, Miles Davis, and others. Peter is joined by Mark Pappas on guitar; John O’Boyle, bass; Ralph Whittle, keyboards; and Tim Smith on drums.

On stage around 2:30 pm: The Lisa Martin Band

Award-winning songwriter Lisa Martin is a Western MA native. Her songs are “melodic and catchy.” (Mark Erelli) “She has a knack for wringing out all the passion that can possibly fit into a 3-minute song.” (SpringfieldRepublican) Bridging the elements of folk, rock, country, and blues, Martin’s music “has an intense backbeat rarely found within the folk genre. All of her live shows are must-see performances.” (Motif Magazine). “Few of her acoustic cohorts can rock out like she does.” (Worcester Phoenix)

Chosen Children Village

Baquio, Philippines

Chosen Children Village

Sunday, January 12, 2020, the Philippines Taal Volcano began spewing ash and lava covering the Chosen Children Village, a haven for abandoned children with physical & mental disabilities. This resulted in covering the facility grounds with ash, causing their water source to be contaminated, their vegetable gardens (a major supply of healthy food for the children) ruined, and electricity cut off.

S.O.N.G. learned of this news from a local woman here who had adopted a child from this orphanage. We immediately provided relief by funding clean drinking water, food, and medical supplies. Due to the significant threat of further eruptions, the children and staff were forced to evacuate and were brought to a retreat house in Baguio City.

Welcome
