MARCH

spacer SATURDAY, March 24:
Molly Andrews
& Peggy Lynn

8:00 PM • $20

Molly Andrews is recognized as one of the finest interpreters of southern Appalachian music and varied genres, bringing directness and intensity to everything she sings. She employs particular intuition and versatility as traditional acapella and interpretive singer, multi-instrumentalist and songsmith.

Singer and songwriter Peggy Lynn brings an infectious enthusiasm to all her endeavors. With a sultry, yet powerful alto voice, Peggy gives a clear message of the passion underlying her songs. Her most powerful message, her passion, is for the contributions and burdens of women. Peggy ranges from folksy to blues with equal ease.

John
McCutcheon

8:00 PM • $23

John McCutcheon has emerged as one of our most respected and loved folksingers. As an instrumentalist, he is a master of a dozen different traditional instruments. His songwriting has been hailed by critics and singers around the globe. His thirty recordings have garnered every imaginable honor including seven Grammy nominations. But it is in live performance that John feels most at home. It is what has brought his music into the lives and homes of one of the broadest audiences any folk musician has ever enjoyed. People of every generation and background seem to feel at home in a concert hall when John McCutcheon takes the stage, with what critics describe as "little feats of magic," "breathtaking in their ease and grace...," and "like a conversation with an illuminating old friend."

MAY

spacer SATURDAY, May 12:
Ellis
8:00 PM • $20

Maybe you caught Ellis at the 2011 Old Songs Festival. She made a lot of fans there, and left the festival toting a lot fewer CDs. An engaging and disarming performer, singer/songwriter Ellis leaves audiences better than she finds them, with softened edges & opened hearts. With songs that capture deep wisdom as well as a childlike playfulness and joy, Ellis’ music is being spread across the globe by fans who are so moved that they have to share it others. A native of Texas, Ellis moved to Minneapolis at the age of 16, where she quickly built a local following that blossomed into a nationwide presence, with extensive touring and seven albums released in the last sixteen years.
