Western Song Presentation

This presentation is a unique look at songs in the oral tradition of people who migrated and took them into the Panhandle, the Great Plains and the Western States. This is not just a random collection of well known western songs. A great deal of research has gone into the songs and their background. It is a unique and rare collection of old songs and ballads from many sources. Sara and Kieron sing these songs from the heart. Some are stark and unaccompanied and others are with Kieron on guitar and Sara on old-time banjo. They chat about the songs and their history, but not in a scripted narrative, they have good fun both playing as well as discussing their vast knowledge of traditional songs and encouraging audience participation. This will be illustrated throughout with a Power Point presentation of wonderful old photographs that bring to life the stories behind each song.
