Black And Sparrow Making Songwriters Share Debut – In Support Of Animal Rescue Fund Of The Hamptons

The 6th Annual Songwriters Share Concert Series will reach its midway point on Friday, March 6. Headliner Black and Sparrow will take the stage at the Unitarian Universalist Meetinghouse in Bridgehampton at 7:30 p.m. – in support of Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons (ARF).

“We are happy to welcome Black and Sparrow this year to the 6th annual Songwriters Share Concert Series,” Nancy Remkus, Songwriters Share Founder, shared. “When we announced their upcoming performance at the last concert there was an audible, ‘Yay’ heard throughout the audience.”

While new to the series, the New York-based acoustic duo consisting of Klyph Black and John Sparrow have been sharing the stage together for many years. They have opened shows for The Subdudes, The New Riders of the Purple Sage, Mick Taylor, Taj Mahal, Hot Tuna and several other notable acts.

“Our concert series offers the opportunity to listen to every word the musicians sing – as well as hear what has inspired them to write their songs,” Remkus noted. “It’s a great evening of music and community-like sharing an intimate night of music with friends and capping it off with some wine and cheese and a strong sense of community.”

Black has penned songs that have been featured on the TV shows Felicity and Alias, and Sparrow scored the movies Schmucks and Marie, which he also acted in. The band’s CDs Friend And Partner and Second Time Around are available on cdbaby.com and itunes.com.

“Very accomplished musicians and songwriters Black and Sparrow will bring a fresh, new sound to our series and we are very excited to have them perform,” Remkus said.

As this is the series that gives back to the community, Black and Sparrow has selected Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons to champion. “This is also the first group that has decided to share the proceeds with ARF – which is such a wonderful organization helping so many cats and dogs find homes. We are delighted to have ARF represented in the series this year,” Remkus said.

Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, was founded in 1974. Since it was established, it has saved over 29,000 cats and dogs. Its successful ARF Op-Cat program has spayed/neutered more than 26,000 cats. The “no kill” Adoption Center’s mission is to “actively rescues cats and dogs, provides quality care and offers sanctuary until loving homes can be found.” Its mobile adoption team allows the organization to assist animals across the region. In addition to the ARF Adoption Center (124 Daniels Hole Road, East Hampton), the organization also has the ARF Thrift & Treasure Shop (17 Poxabogue Lane, Sagaponack), with all sales proceeds supporting the Center.

“It should be a great evening and we encourage the community to come out in support of ARF and to, of course, hear some great music by Black and Sparrow,” Jamie Berger, Director of Marketing & Communications, shared. “We are excited to be a part of the Songwriters Share Concert series and are touched that Black and Sparrow want to perform for our cause.”

General admission to the Songwriters Share Concert Series is $20 and $15 for seniors and students. Following the concert there will be a complimentary wine and cheese reception.

After Black and Sparrow, concerts will feature Hopefully Forgiven playing for Soldier Ride on Friday, April 3, Caroline Doctorow and Gene Casey playing for Turtle Rescue of the Hamptons on Friday, May 1 and Fred Raimando playing for The Retreat on Friday, June 5.

“We hope that many will come out to hear their debut performance in our series – and I hope people will support this series that continues to give back to the community,” Remkus concluded.

Unitarian Universalist Meetinghouse is located at 977 Sag Harbor-Bridgehampton/Sag Harbor Turnpike in Bridgehampton. For more information about Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons, visit arfhamptons.org.

  • Hilary Matt Interiors is a residential design firm started and located in New York City with projects spanning across the country, including in the Hamptons and East End.⁠
⁠
Hilary, principal and founder, is known for a bold aesthetic that is comfortable and livable. She always keeps her clients at the forefront so they can express themselves as individuals through their spaces. After starting out in the fashion industry, Hilary felt a call to interior design where she has been bringing her unique approach and style to every space as the brand continues to grow.⁠
⁠
Hilary spoke more about her background, how each HMI project differs from one another, and why the Hamptons is such a special place to her. She also shared her top 5 interior design tips as inspiration.⁠
⁠
Can you discuss your background and how you got started with interior design?⁠
⁠
HM: I studied business and apparel merchandising. After graduating, my first job was at a women’s contemporary showroom in NYC. I had always loved fashion and wanted to be in the industry. After a year, I realized it wasn’t quite what I expected. I had always been interested in interior design, so I took a leap of faith and accepted a job as an assistant to an interior designer. I was initially nervous to leave fashion, but I figured I could always return. I ended up loving it and worked with her for eight years, learning the ins and outs of the business. I also took classes on weekends and evenings to learn computer programs, scaling, and other essential skills. After leaving that position and having my first son, I started my own company, which has snowballed into what we are today.⁠

  • Comedian Des Bishop took the stage at Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center this week and delivered laugh after laugh. A native New Yorker, Des moved to Ireland in his teenage years, which ultimately inspired his start in comedy and a successful career that has spanned three decades.⁠
⁠
His comedy is full of observational humor and nostalgia, whether it be about his many cross-cultural experiences, an ever-changing societal landscape, and his own personal stories growing up. Des brings energy and a unique perspective to every show, evident at his Westhampton show, the place he has spent all his summers since the 90s.⁠
⁠
Des spoke more about his background, how his experiences have shaped his approach to comedy, his connection with the East End, and his WHBPAC show.⁠
⁠
Can you tell us a bit about your background and how you first got into comedy?⁠
⁠
DB: Well, my background is a little complicated, but the quick version is I grew up in Queens, flunked out of St. Francis Prep at 14, and ended up going to Ireland to boarding school in 1990. It was a crazy, life-changing experience, but it definitely saved my education and ultimately inspired a comedy career that in the early days focused a lot on being an outsider looking in. It’s hard to know if I ever would have tried stand-up if I hadn’t been in Ireland. I got sober at 19 and it was a comedian I knew from that world that pushed me to try stand up. Once I got on stage that was all she wrote. I was addicted.⁠
