Singer and multi-instrumentalist Tracy Grammer, who gained widespread recognition for her work with the acclaimed late musician and songwriter, Dave Carter, returns to the Freight for an eloquent evening of song. With her masterful violin, guitar, and mandolin playing, and a distinctive, velvety voice, Tracy carries on her role as interpreter of Dave's mystical, finely honed songs from their acclaimed duo albums When I Go, Tanglewood Tree and Drum Hat Buddha (Signature Sounds), as well as previously unrecorded compositions. Tracy adds to the mix selections from her new recording, The Verdant Mile, featuring originals and gems by the likes of Kieran Kane and Carole King that Tracy describes as "Postcards from various points along the Verdant Mile, a mythical field I walk when I need to reconcile with the rivers I cannot turn, the birds that won't come, and my reluctant angels . . ." Tonight, Tracy is joined by Jim Henry on mandolin, mandola, dobro, and vocals.
