Free Summer Concert on the Lawn with Michael & Carrie Kline June 21, 2009

On Sunday, June 21st at 5PM, The Hampshire County Arts Council is pleased to present Michael and Carrie Kline, in a free concert. They'll be performing tight, high mountain harmonies of traditional Appalachian and contemporary songs on guitar and voice. They'll be joined for this performance by Bill Gorby on upright bass.

The Klines are preoccupied with West Virginia songs, from the ancient ballads of the Hammons Family in the central highlands, to mining laments and songs of resistance in the coal fields. They present music both as entertainment and social history, with engaging ease and hard-hitting passion.

Concerts move indoors if it rains. Lawn seating (bring folding chairs or blanket to sit on). Refreshments available. For more information visit http://www.HampshireArts.org or call 304-496-8201.
