Sarah Amos has often appeared on stage with her father’s popular band Bob Amos & Catamount Crossing. But she and her father will make their concert debut as a father-daughter duo this Saturday at United Community Church on Main St. in St. Johnsbury (formerly North Congregational Church). Appearing as Bob & Sarah Amos, they will also be stepping outside of their regular bluegrass genre to perform a wider selection of songs from Bob’s diverse musical catalog. The singer-songwriter-instrumentalist has written and recorded over 100 songs on 12 CDs over the past 35-plus years. His songs reflect a variety of influences and styles including folk, bluegrass, blues, Celtic, pop and rock-a-billy.
Bob stressed the intimate nature of this show. “It will be the two of us singing, with me on guitar, as if we were all sitting around a big living room!" Sarah adds, “I love all the guys in my father’s band, but it will be a real treat to take the stage with just my dad.”
The concert closes the inaugural season of Main Street Arts @ North. Tickets are $10, available in advance at Catamount Arts, and at the door. Students admitted free.
