The Friends of the Plainfield Opera House in cooperation with Occasional Concerts are pleased to announce a very special fall concert.
Back in March of 2020 these fine internationally touring musicians, The Black Feathers, were scheduled for an Occasional Concerts Series house concert. That couldn't happen and they barely made it back to the UK before travel shut down. This year they are touring nearly non-stop, and we are so lucky to have them scheduled for September 11, 4 pm, at the Plainfield Opera House. Their beautiful harmonies, great lyrics, expert guitar playing, and lively personalities will make this an exciting show. Americana, Folk, and Acoustic Indie Rock sensibilities coexist comfortably in their musical world, with Hughes' guitar work buoying the kind of harmonies often only heard in family bands. Their music quickly draws the interest of listeners, but it is the stage chemistry that will keep them riveted. The ability to write songs that are both modern and ancient is a rare thing. The product of an arcane art of weaving in traditional influences so thoroughly that they become the warp and weft of fresh creations.
The Black Feathers, made up of Ray Hughes and Sian Chandler, are two such talents. They first became aware of the magic between them while collaborating on several musical projects, becoming The Black Feathers and life partners in 2012.
