New England Media Lab

From the Woods is a musical collective led by Adam Braunschweig based in Western Massachusetts.

They performed for this new season of "Canal Walk Series" the song “Canal digger’s lament".

In Adam's words, "this song is from a new album of original music that TJ (Terrence Ezold, multi-instrumentalist) and I just recorded; a collection of songs with themes inspired by the 1800s. “Canal digger’s lament” is from the perspective of someone who’s been digging the Holyoke canals, which were dug by hand, and taking pride in his work and the daily grind that allows the city to change and grow".

Makers like Sarah Peck find a way to solve problems differently. Inspired by her love of baroque music, Peck muscled her way into the world of lutherie. She envisions herself as the “Jacques Cousteau” of violin and viola de gamba repair: hands on and up close where she can see the instruments tick.

The soulful harmonies from the Americana band, Eavesdrop, couldn't sound more beautiful on a bridge above the Holyoke Canal. In a raw, one-shot, live performance, Eavesdrop makes clear how a good song can be on its basic intimate form.
