Robinson & Rohe in Longest Winter: A Christmas Concert Singalong with Kyle Morgan
About the Concert:
A crowd of friends and neighbors has gathered on one of the longest nights of the year. All is warm and cozy inside, while the cold winter wind blows just outside the door. The clatter of wine glasses and mugs filled to the brim with hot cider gives way to silence. And from that radiant silence emerges a song...
For the past nine years, Robinson & Rohe has been performing The Longest Winter: A Christmas Concert and Singalong. Annually hosted in their Brooklyn home (always teeming with friends and neighbors), this event is full of good food and drink and beautiful music, and is always a high point of every year. This year, they bring their midwinter music to your town, resplendent with a gorgeous set piece, a triptych of paper cut light boxes designed by illustrator Andrew Benincasa.
Liam Robinson and Jean Rohe bring their folk-music roots and contemporary sensibilities to songs new and old. Robinson & Rohe go deep into the Christmas repertoire: the mystical, the melancholic, the soulful, the sublime. Expect songs you may not know: haunting melodies of old Europe, joyful singalongs of the Southern US, and modern takes on the strange and ancient Christmas tale. Please join us for this special evening.
About Robinson & Rohe:
Both accomplished songwriters in their own rights, Jean Rohe (guitar, singing) and Liam Robinson (banjo, accordion, singing) let their finely crafted songs shine in detailed arrangements and elegant harmonies. Whether in small clubs or on festival stages, Robinson & Rohe performances are intimate gatherings in which listeners are invited to share in the music-making.
About Kyle Morgan:
Portland, ME's Kyle Morgan is a philosophizing, storytelling songwriter who's dynamic style resists simple categorization. Though his writing draws heavily on the tradition of American song and its roots in oldtime balladry and countryblues, there's too much Beatles and Kinks mixed in to accurately label it 'Americana'.
