Michael Chorney and Hollar General in Ripton

Past event
Nov 4, 2017, 7:30 to 10 PM

Saturday Nov. 4th Michael Chorney and Hollar General,

Comprised of some of the finest players from Vermont’s small but vital music community, Michael Chorney and Hollar General feature the sounds of acoustic guitar, acoustic bass, steel guitars and drums. The band lifts and carries Chorney's voice and infuses the songs with the subtlety and spontaneous interaction of a jazz quartet. Their concerts are displays of remarkable musical chemistry, deep listening and virtuosic interplay,

Various musical guests provide the perfect compliment both in sound and in musical personality to the road-seasoned trio. In addition to Chorney’s songs Hollar General plays unique renditions of works by Tennessee Williams, Sun Ra and other unlikely sources. “Magic” - Matt Bushlow, Seven Days

The orchestrations are simultaneously rich and spare, deftly echoing the sounds of traditional folk music while also having an indie-pop flair. -New York Times

A shifting landscape of styles and sounds, from orchestral indie folk to mountain music to avant-garde jazz, melding together brilliantly and beautifully. -Seven Days, Vermont

Michael Chorney and Hollar General play a new kind of “Americana” - one as broad and wide as the name suggests. Folk, blues, rag, jazz, chamber music – a blend as authentic as the source. This concert's guests will include Robinson Morse, bass, Geza Carr, drums, Dan Davine, vibes and percussion, Kelly Ravin, vocals & guitar and Taylor Haskins, evi.
