Britt Connors brings soulful Americana to The Loft at Hermit Woods

MEREDITH — The Loft at Hermit Woods Winery & Eatery welcomes Britt Connors and her band on Thursday, March 12 at 7 p.m. for an evening of heartfelt songwriting, rich harmonies, and genre-blending Americana in an intimate listening room setting.

Connors slips nimbly between soulful ballads, pop-rock, folk, and gospel-infused Americana. Backed by an exceptional lineup — Mike Connors (drums), Ed Lucie (bass), and Bethany Weiman (cello) — the band delivers performances that are both powerful and deeply personal.

Raised in a household steeped in folk, rock, jazz, classical, and '80s to '90s pop, Connors’ music reflects a lifetime of wide-ranging influences. A graduate of Ithaca College with a degree in vocal performance, she moved to Somerville, Massachusetts, to find her voice as a songwriter and guitarist in the Boston music scene. Since then, she has released three albums — "The Bad Side of Good," "Warmer Season," and "Longitude" — each showcasing her ability to move authentically across genres while remaining unmistakably herself.

Critics have taken notice. Natali Abernathy of Indie Boulevard writes, “Britt doesn’t fit into genres, and that’s her triumph — she just sounds the way she sounds … sometimes a pause and silence can speak louder than any shout.”

This performance takes place in The Loft’s signature listening room environment — an up-close and attentive space designed for true musical immersion. Guests are asked to refrain from talking during the featured performance so both artists and audience can fully experience the music.

Arrive early to enjoy thoughtfully prepared food alongside The Loft's wines, meads, ciders, local craft beer, and cocktails. After the performance, guests are invited to meet the artists and explore available merchandise.
