Perennial Freight favorite Laurie Lewis and her hot band, the Right Hands, grace our stage for two memorable evenings showcasing gorgeous songs new and old, fabulous fiddling, and the awesome talents of right-hand men Tom Rozum, Todd Phillips, Craig Smith and Scott Huffman. Native Berkeleyite Laurie’s songwriting, fiddling, and crystal-clear singing have brought her national recognition, a Grammy, and two International Bluegrass Music Association Awards for Female Vocalist of the Year. Through her many band and solo outings, Laurie has become a key figure in bluegrass, traditional and folk music circles. Tom adds his mandolin, mandola, guitar, vocal talent, and wry humor; Todd provides consummate bass (and celebrates his birthday); Craig brings along his banjo and his impeccable taste, timing, and tone; and Scott rounds out the ensemble with his amazing banjo and guitar work.

Make sure you join them for good times and plenty of musical gems, including numbers from Laurie and Tom’s recent album of bluegrass, folk and country tunes, Guest House (HighTone), all delivered with the great energy and flair that they always bring to the stage.
