2023 Golf Course Concert Series: Grayson Ty

Enjoy live music on the patio at one of the City's golf courses.

August 2, 2023
2023-08-02T18:00:00 - 2023-08-02T20:00:00

The Golf Course Concert Series is part of the Boston Parks and Recreation Department’s ParkARTS program. They are held in July and August. Shows begin at 6 p.m.

Grayson TY

Western Massachusetts-based singer-songwriter Grayson Ty has mastered the art of vulnerability. Entirely unpretentious, his stage presence is easy, genuine, and unguarded. In an era of so much disconnection and artifice, Grayson brings audiences together with his honest, heartfelt lyrics, and soulful, soothing voice.

Following a sold-out release show for his debut EP Believe, Grayson has shared the stage with American Idol winner Nick Fradiani, Heather Maloney (Signature Sounds), and Crystal Bowersox (American Idol runner-up) among others. Believe earned regional and international acclaim as Grayson toured extensively.

Grayson’s impeccable songwriting brings out the best of his full range, from R&B crooning and folk-inspired storytelling to masterful pop riffs and earnest lyrics. He believes deeply in the connective power of music, working as a music therapist by day, and collaborating as cowriter with other songwriters.

Grayson most recent single, “Fall Again”, has rapidly gained over 29,000 streams on Spotify, and was highly-reviewed by journals across the United States and Europe. His music can be found an all platforms, as well as at his websiteFacebook | Instagram | Spotify | Apple Music | YouTube

The trio was established in the spring of 2016. Members Jessica Kelly, Jackie Turner, and James Caruso had previously played together with Aid to Navigation (2008-2016). When the group parted ways, the J’s came together to form It’s a J Thing.

The group has a dynamic sound boasting vocals from lead singer Jessica Kelly, a unique and powerful sound from Jackie Turner’s violin, and a solid core established by the guitar and singing of James Caruso. The group mixes in original tunes with a wide variety of cover songs spanning any music lover’s catalog.

For 15 months, five Boston artists have been working inside the very systems they want to change, addressing social justice issues and community needs. As restrictions fell into place and inequities were compounded by COVID-19, artists and their City partners shifted to a virtual setting and explored what their practices and civil service meant in this new landscape.



Hear from the artists and City partners as they reflect on their residencies during an unprecedented year of civil outrage in the arts and beyond at this virtual panel discussion on July 15 from 7 - 9 p.m. The event will be held on Zoom and also livestreamed to the Mayor's Office of Arts and Culture Facebook page.
