Annie Haslam and Jim McCarty will perform and tell the tales of British progressive-rock band Renaissance at the Newton Theatre on Spring Street at 8:00 p.m. The discussion will precede a visual presentation and a concert with members of both eras of the band’s history performing their classic songs together. Born from the ashes of The Yardbirds, McCarty and the Keith Relf [1943-1976] wanted to fuse folk and classical with their rock and when Haslam joined, the stage was set. This should be an extraordinary night!
