TRACY GRAMMER w/special guests, Lori Diamond & Fred Abatelli
Tracy Grammer - Short Biography 2018 Called "one of the finest singers and musicians anywhere in folkdom" (Boston Globe) and "a musician and singer of dazzling versatility" (No Depression), Tracy Grammer is among contemporary folk music's most beloved artists. Renowned for her pure voice, deft guitar and violin work, and incantatory storytelling, Grammer has recorded and performed with Joan Baez and Mary Chapin Carpenter, and enjoyed 12 consecutive years as one of folk radio's 50 top-played artists, both solo and in a duo with the late Dave Carter. Her highly-anticipated eleventh release, LOW TIDE (Jan. 2018, Tracy Grammer Music), is the first ever to feature her original songs. Album opener "Hole" was the #1 most-played song on the folk radio charts in February, and the album now sits in the top 5 for its first two months of airplay.
Grammer is currently booking a nationwide album release tour for fall. She is based in Greenfield, Mass.
The buzz on LOW TIDE: Potent songcraft that reflects the tender and stubborn heart that got her here, and a way with words and images that marks the beginning of a new path to glory. A bold and beautiful collection. -coverlaydown.com

Lori Diamond & Fred Abatelli are an acoustic force like no other. Soaring vocals and delicious harmonies abound as Fred deftly weaves thoughtful sounds from his acoustic Martin around Lori's orchestral piano work. These NYC & Boston natives have served as background musicians for a myriad of successful acts in their music careers, and their newest incarnation is a soulful acoustic, contemporary folk duo with jazz & gospel leanings. In recent years, they've accompanied Peter Yarrow of Peter Paul & Mary, Joan Osborne, Amy Ray of the Indigo Girls, John Gorka and so many other incredible artists. Their lyrics offer compelling themes like living an authentic life, effects of Karma and Soul's reunions.
