Fire & Thyme at TCCC

Tompkins Corners Cultural Center is pleased to present Fire & Thyme, a live outdoor concert celebrating the timeless music of James Taylor, Paul Simon, and Jackson Browne.

Led by acclaimed singer-songwriter and touring musician Marc Von Em, Fire & Thyme brings together an exceptional lineup of performers for an evening of beloved classics and memorable storytelling through song. Audiences can look forward to hearing favorites including “Carolina in My Mind,” “Fire and Rain,” “Running on Empty,” and “You Can Call Me Al,” along with many other hits that defined a generation.

Von Em, who has toured internationally as guitarist and backing vocalist with Rob Thomas and Matchbox Twenty, has also shared the stage with artists including Michael McDonald, Richie Havens, Rusted Root, Blue Öyster Cult, Rick Springfield, and The Psychedelic Furs. Joining him are accomplished musicians Jeff Miller, Tobias Ralph, and Mark Murphy, whose performances honor the spirit of the original recordings while bringing fresh energy and musicianship to the live experience.

“Trying to categorize Marc Von Em is a fruitless proposition,” wrote Connections Magazine. “Von Em is a musical craftsman.”

Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, and picnics for this family-friendly summer concert. Kids and Students are FREE! Refreshments and beverages will be available for purchase. Grounds open at 5 p.m. Concert will be held indoors in case of rain.
