Jared Salvatore is the new music-programming director for Circuit Arts, and is helping to launch a dedicated music branch of the organization.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of my songwriting professors at Berklee used to say that the best songs tell us something familiar in an unfamiliar way. It was a way of pushing us beyond clich\u00e9s, to trust that our personal perspective was more compelling than a retrodden phrase. That lesson has stayed with me.\u201d Salvatore says. \u201cGreat art often feels like a conversation you\u2019ve had before, but somehow heard through a new voice. It surprises you, makes you lean in, and helps you see something familiar from a different angle.\u201d<\/p>\n
Circuit Arts and Salvatore\u2019s mission is to promote and sustain a vibrant, year-round music scene by supporting local performers, building community awareness, and creating opportunities for the community and visitors to connect through music. Through concerts, artist residencies, behind-the-music talks, educational programs, and community events, Circuit Arts will champion and celebrate local artists and bring exceptional national artists to the Island.\u00a0<\/p>\n
