First Annual Breast Fest Brings Carly Simon to Dreamland

Tonight a memorable collection of female Island talent joins Simon on the stage for MV Breast Cancer Support Group fundraiser

Carly Simon rarely takes the stage these days and when she does, you can bet it’s for more then just a chance to belt out “You’re So Vain.”

Tonight the song-writing legend, and breast cancer survivor, will be singing her songs alongside an impressive line-up of talented female singers at Dreamland in Oak Bluffs for the First Annual Breast Fest.

The night promises to be a gathering of music and community and an event to celebrate the female spirit through music and art. Featured local performers will include: Jemima James, Nina Violet, Marciana Jones, Lexie Roth, Treather Gassman, Shelagh Hackett, Emily Hunsacker, Andrea Dello Russo and Sabrina Luening. Other special guests from off-Island will be ‘The Outlet Collective’: Meika Pauley, Wyatt, Jeannine Hebb, Lisa Jaeggi, and Sami the Great.
