About The Third Fret Coffeehouse

The Third Fret Coffee House is the perfect Cape Cod performance venue to intimately experience nationally touring songwriters creating a buzz throughout the country. Located at Cotuit Center for the Arts, our venue offers a warm and trendy charm, and a friendly, attentive listening audience, as well as light refreshments to enjoy during the show. Artists and listeners love to come ‘home’ to the Third Fret experience and we are proud to have hosted great artists including, Sloan Wainwright, Pierce Pettis, Mark Erelli, Cliff Eberhardt, and Ellis Paul among others.

Our first concert of the fall 2011 season is no exception as we feature Tripping Lily, an engaging troupe, hailing from Cape Cod, who blends a unique sound of traditional and contemporary genres. Touted as fresh, energetic, and alive, their pop-rock groundwork is cross-fertilized with folk music and cutting edge vocal harmonies. The band’s unique ability to absorb traditional music while speaking to the here and now is proof of their versatility as contemporary musicians. Tripping Lily is gaining ground across the nation, and is a must see while you still can, up, close and personal!
Special guest, Matt Borrello’s future is bright as a promising songwriter whose insightful lyrics and passionate performances leave you craving more.

The Third Fret hosts monthly shows from September until May welcoming up to 100 guests. Doors open at 7 and the shows begin at 7.30. For more information and to purchase tickets visit the Third Fret.

Directions

Directions to The Center for the Arts

Look for the “Low Low Low” CITGO Gas Station on Route 28, between Routes 130 & Route 149
…we’re right next door.

*** Cotuit Center for the Arts from Falmouth and points WEST ***

CCftA is 2.8 miles from the Mashpee rotary. At the rotary, take Route 28 South (Hyannis, Chatham, Cotuit). Stay on Route 28. Less than a half mile past the junction of Route 130, you’ll see on the left side of Route 28 a bakery (now closed) and a CITGO station with a large “Low Low Low Gas-Diesel” sign. CCftA is the driveway immediately after.

*** CCftA from the EAST ***

Take Route 6 West to Exit 5. Take a left off the off-ramp heading south on Route 149.(note: shortly after passing over Route 6 on Route 149 there will be a fork in the road. Be sure to bear to the right at the fork to stay on Route 149.) Continue on Route 149 straight through a rotary and through your first stop sign until you reach Route 28. Take a right onto route 28. The Cotuit Center for the Arts is 1.5 miles down Route 28 from Route 149 on the right side. You will pass through 1 set of traffic lights then a convenience store/deli-pizza place on your right. You’ll see the current shows’ signboards. Immediately after the centers’ driveway there is a small CITGO gas station. If you pass it, you have gone too far.

*** CCftA from the Sagamore Bridge ***

Take Route 6 toward Provincetown to Exit 2. Take Route 130 South approximately 8 miles until it ends at the junction of Route 28. Make a left on Route 28. In less than a half mile you’ll see on the left a bakery and a CITGO station with a large “Low Low Low Gas-Diesel” sign. CCftA is the driveway immediately after.
