Loren & LJ Barrigar Acoustic Guitar Concert at Remsen Arts Center, Saturday, Nov. 14

A father-and-son fingerstyle guitar night, jazz to gypsy swing to Americana, in a small room where you can watch their hands.
Father and son guitarists Loren and LJ Barrigar play the Remsen Arts Center, 9627 Main Street in Remsen, on Saturday, Nov. 14, 2026 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $20 at the door in cash ($15 for Arts Center members) or $22.13 online ($16.88 for members), per the Utica Phoenix; buy through remsenartscenter.org.
Who's playing: Loren Barrigar has been performing since he was 4, played the Grand Ole Opry at 6 and learned from Jimmy Atkins, Chet Atkins' brother. He's kept playing after a serious hand injury by reworking his technique. His son LJ is touring his new solo album, Surge, and songs from it are on the set list. Together they play fingerstyle acoustic guitar across jazz, gypsy swing and Americana.
Good to know: refreshments are sold at intermission. Paying at the door saves a couple of dollars, but bring cash. An end time wasn't published. Remsen is about 20 minutes north of Utica on Route 12.
