Mendocino Stories and Music Series "Foxglove " and "Misner & Smith May 18, 2012

Mendocino Stories & Music Series is happy to announce the return of Foxglove on Friday May 18. They have invited some friends to share the stage with them – duo Misner & Smith. Here’s your chance to enjoy some great acoustic music with guitar, mandolin, bass and multiple other instruments with rich vocal accompaniment. Music starts at 7:30PM at the Mendocino Hotel.

Since 2003, Foxglove has been performing its own special blend of singer/songwriter music set to a bluegrass-esque ensemble at coffeehouses, festivals and theaters in Northern California. Sweet brother-sister harmonies, a tasty mix of strong original music and select covers, and outstanding instrumental talent are all part of Foxglove's signature sound. Foxglove is: Gwyneth Moreland (Vocals, accordion, guitar), Morgan Daniel (vocals, guitar), John Bush (vocals, bass), and Booi Volk (mandolin, banjo, etc.). Foxglove can be found on the web at www.FoxgloveOnline.com and on Facebook.

Misner & Smith’s thoughtful songwriting harkens back to the glory days of folk songwriters like Cat Stevens, Simon & Garfunkel, even Crosby, Stills and Nash. Sam Misner and Megan Smith are a gem of a musical pairing, offering a refreshing take on contemporary folk music. Their lovely harmonies and perfectly blended voices fit within classic American traditions, and their songwriting and storytelling transport the listener to a world of their creation. That is the hallmark of any folk singer worth his or her salt, but Misner & Smith have a truly unique quality in the chemistry of their duets that sets them apart from the field.
