| Richmond Farmers' Market - Update September 8, 2011 |
|
September 9th - On stage at 5:00 to 6pm, Symphony Reel takes over the stage at the Richmond Farmers' Market and plays a lively mix of Irish and Swedish tunes. They have performed at past Richmond's Celtic New Year celebrations. They are Laura Markowitz, fiddle; Ana Ruesink, fiddola; and John Dunlop on guitar and bouzouki. Symphony Reel plays for kids' concerts in schools across the state, introducing children to both classical music and folk styles. All three play in the VSO. Laura and John live in Jericho and teach music in Richmond and Ana lives in Burlington.
The Youth Booth - Featured at the Youth Booth; Noe Lindemuth, Samatha Aikman and Molly Austin will sell baked goods, granola, lemonade, and books with sea shells on them. At the second Market of each month, area youth with an entrepreneurial flair are invited to set-up and sell items that they have either made, baked or grown. September 16th - On stage at the Richmond Farmers' Market from 5:00 to 6:00, let's welcome Folk By Association. After over ten years of performing, Karen Krajacic and Jill Cowen have certainly traveled a long and interesting road together. They've now played hundreds of shows in 26 states, gaining a reputation for both their top-notch vocal harmonies and their grassroots approach to working as independent artists. With intricate harmonies at the forefront, Folk By Association embraces elements of folk, roots, bluegrass, jazz, and world music, weaving these eclectic traditions together in a unique, contemporary way. The duo uses multiple acoustic instruments, switching off between the guitar and mandolin, throwing in a banjo here, a toy xylophone there. Said to be both nostalgic and modern, soothing and energizing, Folk By Association is both a throwback and a surprise. This performance is being sponsored by the Young Rembrandts Program.
