Music with Heart Annual Fundraiser and Concert, Saturday April 26
Saturday, April 26, 2025, 1900 - 2200
Music with Heart has been helping Greater Boston's forgotten population find joy and hope through our interactive music program for more than three decades.
Music with Heart (aka the Boston Minstrels) has been providing a unique blend of musical entertainment, audience interaction and participation - and a sense of encouragement, involvement and hope - to Greater Boston homeless shelter guests, nursing home residents, senior center visitors and memory care patients since 1991. These shelters and centers are located in several Boston neighborhoods and in neighboring communities.
On Saturday, April 26 (7 PM-10 PM) this non-profit volunteer group, founded by longtime Brighton residents Tim and Jane McHale, shares its talents with the public at our Annual Fundraiser at the Needham VFW Post, 20 Junction St. in Needham (near the commuter rail station). The event includes performances of rock, pop, folk and R and B favorites by our singers and musicians - heavy on attendee participation - along with dancing, a buffet dinner and a cash bar. And this year, we are joined by the Belmont-based Blues Dogs, a quartet of rock and roll animals (with four singers!) who will deliver a powerhouse set of blues and rock favorites - and hidden gems. Their catalogue spans the decades: from Ray Charles, the Allman Brothers and Bonnie Raitt to Stevie Ray Vaughn, Sheryl Crow and Steely Dan - and more.
In 2024, Music with Heart danced, sang, and shared conversation at over 40 events, connecting with hundreds of people to make their day a bit more joyful. This year’s program, well underway, calls for some 50 Songfests and other events with more being added. Tax deductible tickets for the Fundraiser are $55 online at www.MusicWithHeartBoston.org or $65 at the door. Donations in lieu of ticket purchases are also most welcome. Music with Heart is a 501c3 organization.
