Steve and Cindy are back to captivate us with their velvety voices and pleasant, back-and-forth rapport. Since the release of his first solo album forty years ago, legendary singer-songwriter-guitarist Steve Gillette continues to perform his thoughtful, down-to-earth songs with a baritone voice that is rich and full. Major artists have recorded his songs. "Small wonder as he's a legendary songwriter... obviously his peers are in awe of him" (Folk Roots Magazine.) Cindy Mangsen joins him on vocals and an array of instruments -- guitar, banjo, English concertina, and mountain dulcimer. She especially has a gift for singing traditional ballads. "This beautiful American folk soprano is as much a master of Anglo-Scottish tradition as many better-known singers from 'across the pond.' Gorgeous, pure vocals" (Boston Globe).
With two equally strong solid voices, Steve and Cindy easily take turns singing melody and harmony, producing a blend rich in sound and sensitive in phrasing. Just after their last visit in 2006, the husband and wife team released their latest duet album called "Being There." We can't wait to hear a few selections.
