Adrienne Young & Little Sadie
Sunday, August 14, 2005
poetry-infused, old-time inflected music
Door 7:30pm, Music 8:00pm | Purchase advance tickets: $17.50

One of the most refreshing new voices to arrive in americana music in recent times, melodious singer-songwriter, clawhammer banjo player, and organic gardener Adrienne Young presents a disarming mixture of old- timey and bluegrass sounds with a youthful edge. In concert and on albums like her new The Art of Virtue, Adrienne applies a worldly compassion, a poet's pen, and an independent spirit to songs about choices and consequences, cultivation and stewardship.

"There seems to be a growing passion...to understand the foundation of our American culture and how we've turned from that," states Adrienne, a seventh generation Floridian. "Personally, it steered me back toward a time when our country was rooted in agrarian ideals and words were powerful enough to begin a new world." Tonight she's accompanied by the quartet, Little Sadie, featuring percussionist Steven Sandifer, guitarist Tyler Grant, bassist Amanda Kowalski, and fiddler Clayton Campbell.
