Since returning to NH, Joey performs across the region as both a solo artist and with his band, the Big Hearts, and has been a featured performer on the radio show, Granite State of Mind, and played on NHPR. His live CD, Cat on the Frontier, (the "pink album") was released at the Bank of NH Cantin Lounge and is in its third printing. To hear samples of his work, check out his website: https://joeyclark.bandcamp.com/community.

Drop off your children’s posters at Dublin Consolidated School or at the Dublin Community Center on April 17 before 3 pm.
