Stage 33 Live launches a podcast

BELLOWS FALLS-The Stage 33 Live Podcast assembles live-performance clips from the Stage 33 Live documentation archives.

A new hour-long episode of the podcast comes out on the third Thursday of every month in both audio and video formats on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, iHeart, Pandora, and several more.

See stage33live.com/podcast or search "Stage 33 Live Podcast." Viewers and listeners can subscribe and write a review on most platforms.

Each episode gathers performance clips - documented one-and-done and "warts and all" - based on a loose theme, featuring regional, local, and national talent, wrote event promoters in a news release. Only original material is allowed, or material from the public domain.

While the room has mostly defined itself as an acoustic singer-songwriter showplace, there's also jazz, pop, spoken word, rock, and more. "It's a place for people who thrive on discovery and revel in the immersion of connecting with performances in an intimate setting," organizers said.

Stage 33 Live is a 40-seat nonprofit DIY listening room in an industrial-rustic former factory on an island in the Connecticut River in the village of Bellows Falls. They describe themselves as "the middle path between the high quality of a classy performance center (but without the swank), and the relaxed comfort of a welcoming little dive pub (but without the bar)."

It is run entirely by volunteers, with all the ticket money going to the performers.

For more information about everything, including direct links to the podcast on several of the platforms, see the uncomfortably dense Stage 33 Live website at stage33live.com.
