MATT NATHANSON CONCERT TO BENEFIT PETIT SCHOLARSHIP

“Three Schools, Three Lives” Concert - Friday, April 18, 2008

Three Connecticut schools – Chase Collegiate School in Waterbury, Cheshire Academy in Cheshire, and Miss Porter’s School in Farmington – are joining together to sponsor a spring concert that will honor the women of the Petit family who lost their lives in a home invasion last summer. Proceeds from “Three Schools, Three Lives” will benefit scholarships established at the request of Dr. William Petit in memory of his wife, Jennifer Hawke-Petit (health center director at Cheshire Academy),and his daughters, Hayley (a 2007 graduate of Miss Porter’s School) and Michaela (a student at Chase Collegiate).

Solo guest artist for the event will be singer/songwriter Matt Nathanson, whose work blends both folk and rock music. His music has been featured on the American Wedding and American Pie Presents Band Camp soundtracks and on the TV shows NCIS, Private Practice, One Tree Hill, Big Shots, and Scrubs. Earlier this year, Matt appeared on Late Night with Conan O’Brien.
