You probably know that we're big fans of actress Lauren Ambrose's jazz singing with The Leisure Class. Now we're psyched to hear her sing Willie Nelson and Patsy Cline tunes on Sunday, June 20, at Lester Blumenthal's Route 7 Grill in Great Barrington at a benefit for the scholarship fund at the Kinderfhof pre-school in Egremont. "We're having a pig roast that is open to anyone in the community, and I'll be singing with a country and bluegrass band that's an amalgamation of Berkshire musicians who I have played with before," says Ambrose. "I think it's a really appropriate way to spend Father's Day, helping parents who cannot afford to send their children to pre-school. It's going to be a really fun, family event—a real hootenanny!"
