Bold Riley
Friday, Jan. 25 7:30pm
|
Bold Riley is known for its soaring vocal harmonies and diverse instrumentation. Members Dennis Boyd, Jr., Julia Edwards, John Gunn, Michael Hayashida, and Erin Sampson take turns singing lead on songs which range from classic folk favorites to unlikely covers and rousing originals. Fiddle, guitar, banjo, accordion, bass and an ever expanding list of percussion allow Bold Riley to provide a wide range of music to listeners. Last year they enjoyed the acoustic treat of playing in Auburn UU’s resonant sanctuary, with Dave Rowe on sound.
"Since Bold Riley's songs often reflect on aspects of the human experience, whether marriage or loss or joy,” says fiddler Michael Hayashida, "being able to perform in a church that holds such experiences holy is richly satisfying for the band." Tickets are $15 at the door (cash or credit. |

DuoDuo Quartet is Maeve Gilchrist & Nic Gareiss and Natalie Haas & Yann Falquet.
The DuoDuo Quartet presents an unforgettable night of music, song, and dance, spanning from the intimacy of each duo to a collaboration featuring all four of these innovators and masters of their respective traditions and instruments. -------------------- Gilchrist & Nic Gareiss made their duo debut at the Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow, Scotland. Michigan-born percussive dancer Nic Gareiss and Edinburgh harpist Maeve Gilchrist met while teaching at the Shasta Fiddle Summit in Northern California. They later toured together as part of Darol Anger's band, 'The Furies.' Nic and Maeve have emerged from the vibrant new acoustic scene as innovators in their fields. The percussion and drive of Nic's footwork combined with Maeve's melodic and improvisational sensibilities make for an explosive duet sure to delight both the ears and the eyes. ------------------------- The husband and wife team of Haas and Falquet have been performing together as a duo, mixing Québécois traditional songs and new takes on folk music from throughout Western Europe. Natalie Haas is one of the most sought-after cellists in Celtic music today. She and Scottish fiddler Alasdair Fraser have toured as a duo for 18 years, wowing audiences at festivals and concerts worldwide. She has appeared on over 50 albums, including those of Cape Breton fiddler Natalie MacMaster, Irish greats Altan, Solas, and Liz Carroll, and Americana icon Dirk Powell. Montrealer Yann Falquet is one of the most creative acoustic guitarists in today's Québécois music scene. He has recorded five albums and toured the world with French Canadian power trio Genticorum. Over the years, he has developed a unique personal guitar style for Québécois folk music, rhythmically powerful yet subtly complex. |
