The Chandler show pre-dates the official release, giving the audience a first glimpse and a chance to purchase the album before it hits stores and the airwaves. The show is a benefit for BALE – Building a Local Economy, a community resource center for local economy initiatives that emerge from the people and communities of the White River Valley.
Early ticket purchasers can get a free meal before the show if they are one of the first 100 people to reserve a place.

A cash bar will be available. For tickets and dinner reservations, please call the Chandler Box Office at 802-728-6464. Concert tickets can also be ordered online at www.chandler-arts.org.
