Ecelectic Rock Showcase 3 on Friday, October 25th at Helsinki Hudson is NOT a Halloween party but it will have all the weirdness and excitement of Halloween. After amazing shows in June and August this year, the Eclectic Rock Showcase at Helsinki Hudson has established itself as an exciting venue for up-and-coming and underground acts. Eclectic Rock Showcase 3 features variety and fun with the legendary Bunnybrains and local soul star VEMilO, as well as the top-flight musicianship of William Lawrence of Felice Brothers. Also appearing are Copake garage rock heroes The Wild Weeeds who have blossomed into regional stars with recent shows in Troy, Saratoga and Northampton. Ecelectic Rock Showcase 3 will be a super-fun night of new musical entertainment at a reasonable cost, at a world-class club.

Conceived and performed by mezzo-soprano Hai-Ting Chinn, Science Fair uses physical demonstrations and experiments, a libretto created from the words of scientists, and original music to illuminate our current understanding of the natural world. Celebrating curiosities like the formation of our solar system, the structure of the atom, and the ancient legacy of DNA, Science Fair pairs light-hearted humor with luscious operatic vocals to uplift the ordinary into the realm of wonder.
