The Deane Center at 104 Main Street in Wellsboro is hosting a record release show for “Live at Cambridge Sound Studios,” a new album by Pocono Jones & The Bear next Saturday, Feb. 25 at 7:30 p.m. in the Coolidge Theatre.

Billed as The Bear is Pennsylvania-based folk/blues artist Paul Wilkinson who lives in the Philadelphia area, but is originally from Westfield. Joining him is Pocono Jones, aka Brad Hinton.

Together they will perform ten selections from their live acoustic album recorded during the pandemic in a back-to-the-basics folk music session. Most are familiar songs and four are originals.

Wilkinson and Hinton trade vocal and guitar leads throughout the album, which opens with “Louis Collins,” better known as “The Angels Laid Him Away” followed by “Rosalee McFall,” a vintage bluegrass-like tune once covered by The Grateful Dead. Next are “Borderline,” a Wilkinson original and “Pretty Mama,” one of three songs written by Hinton. “Blues Stay Away From Me” from the Delmore Brothers includes a string-bending guitar solo from Jones who is the lead for the country classic “You’re Still On My Mind.” Picking and singing, the two musicians move into Merle Haggard’s classic “Silver Wings.”

The release show is BYOB with audience members encouraged to bring their favorite beverages and snacks.

Admission is $20. To purchase tickets and reserve a table, call 570-724-6220 or visit deanecenter.com.
