The Bill Frisell and Sam Amidon Duo 'Live At the Edmond Town Hall' in Newtown

The "Live at the Edmond Town Hall" music series returns with The Bill Frisell and Sam Amidon Duo on March 19 at 7 p.m.

All proceeds will go to the renovation of the organizer and Newtown resident, Hayden Bates, stated in a press release.

According to Bill Frisell's website The New York Times has said: "It's hard to find a more fruitful meditation on American music than in the compositions of guitarist Bill Frisell.

Edmond Town Hall Theater was a gift from Mary Hawley in 1929 to the town in memory of her great grandfather, Judge William Edmond. It is the only $2 movie theater in Connecticut.

Amidon is a folk artist originally from Vermont, the release said. A reviewer wrote of his 2010 album "I See The Sign" that "as a vocalist Amidon is preternaturally calm, and his flat repetition of certain couplets feels mesmeric and mantra-like. He's poised, but never cold, and [this] can play like a gospel record, with all the attendant modes and lessons. These are songs to live by."

Tickets are $29.99 and can be purchased at www.edmondtownhall.org/billfrisell
