We will have the distinct privilege and pleasure of
presenting The Levins. This contemporary harmonydriven
folk duo offers lyricallyrich acoustic music that is
warm and uplifting without skating over life's
complexities. They have an infectious musicality, sharp
songwriting skills, and a unique approach to vocal
harmonies that is both soulful and unexpected. They have
received numerous accolades including: ranking on Folk
and Roots DJ charts, nabbing Top 10 positions and
landing on multiple DJ's early Top 10 song and album
lists. Their songs bridge genres and communities. Their
latest CD is “Caravan Of Dawn;” its transformative
message explores the "sorrow inside joy and joy inside
sorrow." As is the case with all of our song swaps, we
guarantee that everyone will have a chance to perform,
whether you are a singer, poet, storyteller, etc.,
especially if you come early. Admission is free, but as is our custom, when we have a guest performer, we will pass the hat. At Hosteling International located on Amsterdam Avenue between 103rd and 104th Streets, in the New York Room. |

Come help us celebrate our 54th year with a potluck
dinner and two sings. One will be an instrumental jam
and sing led by Don Friedman; people who like to take
instrumental breaks are very welcome at this one, as
are those who just like to sing (or play and sing).
The other will be a jam led by Clarice Kjerulff that
welcomes any combination of accompanied or
unaccompanied singing. The sings will be in two
different areas of OSA Hall. People can drift from one
to the other as the spirit moves them. Bring a potluck dish to share (coordinate with Betsy, social[at]folkmusicny.org, so we don't drown in onion dip). And it's FREE. At OSA Hall, 220 East 23 rd St, Suite 707 (between 2nd and 3rd Aves). |
