For the last three Saturdays of November, LEAF Global Arts will be hosting an Artist ReLEAF Concert series.

The events will both benefit the artists who perform (through the LEAF Local Artist Relief Fund) AND help to raise money for the fund.

First up: Aaron “Woody” Wood on November 16, 4-6 p.m. Described as straight-up cosmic Appalachian soul, Woody consistently delivers the power and energy that have gained him renown as a musician’s musician. Throughout his long career, Woody has never fit neatly into one genre. His appeal calls to people who love music no matter if it’s rock, blues, Americana, or soul.
