Tracy Grammer

Singer and multi-instrumentalist Tracy Grammer, who gained widespread recognition for her work with the late songwriter Dave Carter, returns for an evening of eloquent music. With her masterful violin, guitar, and mandolin playing, and a distinctive, velvety voice, Tracy carries on her role as interpreter of Dave's mystical and finely honed songs.
She adds to the mix her own lovely originals and gems from other artists such as Jackson Browne, Tom Russell, David Francy and Paul Simon. Her touring partner is singer-songwriter Jim Henry who provides accompaniment on guitar, mandolin, dobro, and vocals.
Opener Kelleigh McKenzie is a banjo-plucking indie folk songstress from the Hudson Valley who was swept almost inadvertently into a career of national prominence when she sent a CD of her songs to some folk radio stations. Her untutored soprano, spare lyrics and quietly passionate, sultry power is genuinely captivating.
