Event
Heather Maloney and Brad Yoder
Tonight we'll enjoy another installment in our hugely popular "See the Future!" series. These shows offer a sample of the excellent artists who are creating a brilliant future for the world of folk music. Underwritten by a grant from the New York State Council on the Arts, the tickets are an incredible bargain at only $10. Tonight we feature two thoroughly contemporary acoustic artists each playing in a duo format. Since her head-first dive into the indie music world in November of 2009, Heather Maloney has taken her poetic and powerful folk-rock songs to more than 200 stages a year and has gotten the attention of top artists in the field. Her second album, Time & Pocket Change, was just released. It treads a line between the intimacy of folk and the dramatic narrative of opera, with daring arrangements and "tender moans tucked in tight with brisk musicianship." (Worcester Magazine) Her rich and playful singing style has an organic elegance that's hard to get out of your head. Brad Yoder "rules the Pittsburgh coffeehouse scene" (Pittsburgh Magazine), having been in the top three slots multiple times since 2002 for Pittsburgh's "Best Acoustic/Solo Artist." He is the classic DIY artist, with five self-released albums that have sold more than 7,000 copies at his 150+ annual concerts. His latest disc, Excellent Trouble (2010), features Brad's unique mix of humorous, poetic, political, funky and edgy original songs, covering a musical range from folk to indie rock (with unexpected musical and lyrical twists), that has earned him a loyal following ranging from kids in single digits through retirees.
