The Honey Dewdrops: Laura Wortman and Kagey Parrish.
$10.
press release: The Honey Dewdrops bring their unique blend of folk and roots music to Madison on Sunday, June 24, for a show at the North Street Cafe. The concert starts at 6pm.
Laura Wortman and Kagey Parrish, The Honey Dewdrops, are celebrating their ninth year of touring, having played stages and festivals far and wide in North America and Europe. With tight harmonies and an musical ensemble that includes clawhammer banjo, mandolin and guitars, the effect is to leave listeners with only what matters: the heart of the song and clarity over ornamentation.
After leaving their home base of Virginia and living on the road for two years, Laura and Kagey now call Baltimore, Maryland, home and it's where they wrote and recorded their fourth full-length album, Tangled Country, released May 2015. Acoustic Guitar Magazine describes the set of songs as “a handcrafted sound centered on swarming harmonies and acoustic guitars that churn like a paddle wheel and shimmer like heat waves on the highway.” And like their stage performance, these songs rock and reel, and then they console you when you come back down.
