Gold Into Straw - Original Songs by Andy Davis - Athens

Past event
Aug 13, 2023, 2:30 to 4 PM

Andy Davis will present a program of his original songs written in his traditional and participatory style at the Athens (VT) Brick Meeting House. Come prepared to both listen and to join in on the choruses. Each song is drawn from local history, personal experience and heartfelt memory. Andy accompanies his songs on accordion and piano. He will be joined by Laurie Indenbaum on fiddle. The concert will benefit the Athens Brick Meeting House. Suggested donation is $10.

Andy (aka "Mr. Davis') taught elementary music in Brattleboro, Dover and other area towns for over 30 years. Calling community dances and playing banjo, piano and accordion has kept him in touch with traditional music and its place in community life. In retirement Andy has focussed on songwriting. His songs speak of life in New England, interesting characters, dear friends and family, philosophical musings and an occasional political or environmental commentary. Mixed in with his original songs will be some original waltzes, jigs and reels - all with a story or memory to relate.
