Description:
Woods Hole Folk Music Society continues its 44th season with two familiar and highly respected performers, here as a duo for the first time. Brian Peters (UK) and Jeff Davis (USA) have been playing together on both sides of the Atlantic on and off for over a decade. Although Brian's music is essentially English folk, while Jeff's is often categorized as American Old-Time, the two share a love for old songs and for and the traditional music of one another's countries, which helps them blend their considerable talents intuitively as a duo. To Brian's skills on concertina, melodeon and guitar are added Jeff's mighty talents on fiddle, banjo, mandocello and guitar, while their voices blend beautifully in harmony. A concert might include ballads from the old world or the new, sea songs, cowboy songs, and all kinds of instrumentals from mountain fiddle breakdowns to English country dance tunes, often featuring the unusual but heaven-sent combination of concertina and mandocello. Details: 7:30 PM, Woods Hole Community Hall, 68 Water Street, Woods Hole Doors open at 7:00 PM. Tickets at the door only, no advance sales. Admission: $15 ($12 members; discounts for seniors, youth, and children). Donations of baked goods always welcome.
