In honor of our 20th anniversary, Acoustic Brew is proud to host a free afternoon and evening of great local music. The afternoon will begin with a showcase of artists including Andy Tolins, Pure Cane Sugar, Chicken Tractor, Tussey Mountain Moonshiners, and many others. Stay tuned for more information and the final lineup.
Combining tradition with innovation, encompassing genres from Klezmer to Appalachian, Simple Gifts creates some of the finest arrangements in folk music today: swing fiddle creeps into a Romanian dance, spoons show up in an Irish reel, and the concertina ventures far beyond styles considered traditional for that instrument. Linda Littleton, Rachel Hall, and Karen Hirshon (this show will feature the duo of Karen and Linda) switch with ease among two violins, concertina, mandolin, banjolin, recorders, bowed psaltery, hammered dulcimer, baritone fiddle, guitar, piano, and percussion.
Tickets will be required for the evening show and can be obtain at http://acousticbrew.org. All daytime concerts are open admission.
