Cindy Mangsen and Steve Gillette
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 over 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.
