RANI ARBO, fiddler, guitarist, singer/songwriter will perform in a duo show with master Vermont guitarist GREG RYAN at the Maple Corner Community Center in Calais, Vermont on Friday, September 25th at 7:30 pm.
On the set list will be many of Arbo’s wry, reflective originals, as well as traditional and cover songs, from Appalachian ballads to Ray Lamontagne.
Acoustic Guitar Magazine writes, “Arbo is blessed with an unmistakable voice, both light and sultry, with a hint of tremolo and smoke.”
Together with Ryan’s rich, gravelly singing and emotive, powerful guitar, this duo casts a sweet and spooky musical spell.
Rani Arbo has toured nationally for more than 20 years with John McCutcheon, Joan Baez, Mark Erelli, among others, and, most recently, with the quartet Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem. Together, they have produced five CDs on Signature Sounds and frequented folk festivals from coast to coast. Rani was also lead singer and fiddler in the New England - based bluegrass band Salamander Crossing. Her songs are melodic, poetic, loving and wry reflections on motherhood, spirit, partnership, mid-life, red- haired boys, and more.
Greg Ryan is an accomplished musician and performer, having toured for years as a singer/songwriter before forming the modern gypsy jazz group They Might Be Gypsies with his son Aidan. Their two records received rave reviews, with their debut album winning the Times Argus' Instrumental Album Of The Year. In addition to playing with They Might Be Gypsies, Greg performs with the gypsy jazz group The Queen City Hot Club.
Tickets are $10/person and $25/family. There will be no advance ticket sales.
