Enjoy a night of vivacious high spirits, compassionate and inspiring lyrics, and gorgeous voices. Folk scene stalwart Cosy Sheridan writes love songs for adults, practical philosophy for a complicated world, blues-flavored gospel, modern re-tellings of myth, and parodies that reveal a "keen and wicked eye for the excesses of our fast-food, tv-happy and noisome culture." (The Boston Globe). A voice student at Berklee School of Music, as well as a guitar student of such luminaries as Eric Schoenberg and Guy Van Duser, Sheridan brings serious chops to the stage. For the past 20 years she has been in-demand instructor at adult music camps across the country including the Puget Sound Guitar Workshop and The Swannanoa Gathering. In 2008 she co-founded the Moab Folk Camp in Utah.
Singer/songwriter Sloan Wainwright has an effortless command of a variety of American musical styles pop, folk, jazz and blues. Her family tree (brother Loudon Wainwright III, nephew Rufus Wainwright, nieces Martha Wainwright and Lucy Wainwright Roche) reads like a who's who of contemporary folk music. Sloan's incredible gift is not only her songwriting but her beautiful, irresistible voice. Warm and smoky and smooth, it makes her earthy, ominous lyrics seem all the more intense.
