1st artist onstage TBC
We are currently waiting for the finalised schedule for this performance and will update this page as soon as possible (this is normally on the afternoon of the performance).
In some ways, music doesn’t get much more modest or minimalist than it is in the hands of The Civil Wars, a duo comprised of California-to-Nashville transplant Joy Williams and her Alabaman partner, John Paul White. They travel without a backup band, and on their first full-length album, Barton Hollow, the bare-bones live arrangements that fans hear on the road are fleshed out with just the barest of acoustic accoutrements.
“Agile melodies and shimmering harmony vocals - utterly mesmerizing and with more than a hint of the English folk-ballad tradition and the sophistication of Leonard Cohen.” (Washington Post)
