Nancy Atlas continues her beloved Fireside Sessions with an intimate winter evening of live music at Bay Street Theater. Performing every Saturday in January, this signature series brings audiences up close to the music, pairing Atlas and her band with a different guest artist each week in a warm, fireside setting.

The January 17 performance features Brian Mitchell, a dynamic keyboardist, vocalist, and bandleader whose career spans decades of live performance across blues, soul, and Americana. Mitchell is widely known for his work with Levon Helm’s Midnight Ramble Band and has collaborated with legendary artists including Bob Dylan, Dolly Parton, and B.B. King. His musicianship has been heard on stages ranging from intimate listening rooms to major concert halls.

That depth of experience shines in the close, fireside setting of this series. Together, Nancy Atlas and Brian Mitchell create a soulful, spontaneous collaboration—blending groove, storytelling, and musical chemistry for a night that feels personal, warm, and unmistakably alive.
