legendary baroque & roll ensemble's acoustic trio line-up
Door 7:30pm, Music 8:00pm | Purchase advance tickets: $20.50

The acoustic trio of Chas Cronk, David Cousins, and Dave Lambert and perform inspired new songs and breathe fresh life into classic tunes from the repertoire of their iconic British folk-rock group, The Strawbs. Pared down to three acoustic vocalist/guitarists, the group beautifully distills the energy of previously electrified classics like "Tears and Pavan" and "Ghost" with eloquent passion and precision. Perhaps best known for their mid-'70s progressive rock incarnation, the group has spent the past few years getting back to their acoustic roots, with performances and acclaimed albums, Baroque & Roll and this summer's Deja Fou (Witchwood).

The trio features Strawbs founder, powerful vocalist, guitarist and principal songwriter (and recent recipient of the British Classic Rock Society's Lifetime Achievement Award) David Cousins, charismatic guitarist and singer Dave Lambert, a member of the group since the early 1970s, and yet another great guitarist and bassist, Chas Cronk. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy this group's superb songcrafting and excellent musicianship in an acoustic setting!
