Hello Coffee House Friends,
Please join us Saturday June 3rd for a concert with
Low Lily!
The string and vocal trio Low Lily (formerly Annalivia) explores the roots and branches of American folk music with traditional influences and modern inspiration that weaves together a unique brand of acoustic music. Liz Simmons (vocals and guitar), Flynn Cohen (vocals, guitar, and mandolin), and Lissa Schneckenburger (vocals and fiddle) are masterful players with deep relationships to traditional music styles ranging from bluegrass to Irish, Scottish, New England, and Old Time Appalachian sounds. When you combine this with stellar composition skills and inventive arrangements you get music that is rooted yet contemporary. Corey DiMario (Crooked Still) will join the trio on double bass.
"Low Lily has an incredible knack for putting a little pop twist on a traditional folk/Americana sound... it’s a blend that works beautifully"~PopMatters
