Windborne's captivating show draws on the singers' deep roots in vocal-harmony traditions, while the uniqueness of their artistic approach brings old songs into the present. Known for innovative arrangements, their harmonies are bold and anything but predictable.
But there's another, crucial dimension to Windborne that guides and roots their artistry. They are adherents to folk music's longtime alliance with social activism, labor and civil rights, and other movements that champion the oppressed, the poor, and the disenfranchised. Their latest project, Of Hard Times & Harmony, explores themes of social consciousness, showcasing the depth of emotion their voices can evoke as well as moments of true hilarity and wit.
Preceding their 7 PM performance in the Music Hall, there will be a free singing workshop at 4:30 PM and a free potluck from 5:30 PM onward.
Sliding-scale tickets for adults, with a $10 minimum, can be purchased at chandler-arts.org or (802) 728-9878, or at the door. Children and folks financially affected by the recent flooding are free.
