Friday, April 4 at 7:30 pm ET
Innovative musicians/dancers with a quirky neo-trad soul, Oakland, California-based Evie Ladin & Keith Terry throw down original folk songs and deep interpretations of old songs, with the kinetic thrill of percussive dance. A prolific singer-songwriter, percussive dancer and square dance caller, the polyrhythmic heat of Evie’s clawhammer banjo has been heard from A Prairie Home Companion to Celtic Connections, Lincoln Center to Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. Trained as a jazz drummer, Keith Terry brings tonal percussion to stand-up bass, is a renowned percussionist/rhythm dancer. evieladin.com

Zigue — Live at Old Songs
Saturday, April 26 at 7:30 pm ET
Since 1992, Claude Méthé and Dana Whittle have performed, composed and shared everything musical. They are both dynamic singers and prolific composers in love with the Québécois trad-inspired music they make together. Claude’s raw, emotional singing and authentic fiddling is seamlessly matched to the accompaniment of his longtime partner, herself a rhythmic and vocal powerhouse. Together, they deliver the kind of magic that is the hallmark of musical families. The addition of their son Aimé Méthé in 2019 perfectly illustrates their commitment to the transmission of musical heritage, and brings a new intensity to their sound. In late 2022, a fourth, multi-talented member, Mario St-Germain grew their ranks, further enriching their rooted sound. claudemethe.com/zigue

Martin & Eliza Carthy — Live at Old Songs
Friday, May 2 at 7:30 pm ET
Martin Carthy and Eliza Carthy, join forces to perform songs from their first duo album. For more than 50 years Martin Carthy has been one of folk music’s greatest innovators, one of its best loved, most enthusiastic and, at times, most quietly controversial of figures. His skill, stage presence and natural charm have won him many admirers, not only from within the folk scene, but also far beyond it. Eliza Carthy is undoubtedly one of the most impressive and engaging performers of her generation. More than most, Eliza Carthy has revitalised folk music and captured the most hardened of dissenters with intelligent, charismatic and boundary-crossing performance.

Ensemble Sangineto — Live at Old Songs
Friday, May 9 at 7:30 pm ET
Ensemble Sangineto is Adriano and Caterina Sangineto, and Jacopo Ventura. Ensemble Sangineto is an eclectic band which blends skillfully ancient harmonies and sonorities with modern rhythms. The wide-ranging musical experiences of the individual members converge to create fresh and sparkling arrangements of traditional Irish, Scottish, Breton & Italian tunes and original compositions that display influences from many varied musical genres ranging from classical to folk, from Gregorian chant to musical, from pop to Celtic music. The delicate combination of the pure and magic tones of the harp and of the bowed psaltery with the guitar intermingle with the three voice-polyphonic texture evoking dreamlike and airy atmospheres, which are simultaneously joyful and light.
