With its close-knit harmonies, introspective lyrics, and memorable folk anthems, acoustic folk duo Storyhill has built up an enormous word-of-mouth following and a solid presence in the modern folk scene. (If you saw their great opening set for Erika Luckett at the Freight last spring, you know why!)

Now returning to our stage for a night of their own, Montana natives Chris Cunningham and John Hermanson show why they're affectionately known as "the male Indigo Girls." Their innovative arrangements and pitch-perfect harmonies also make Chris and John ideally suited to a project like their recent CD, Duotones, reinterpreting classics by legendary duos from the 1970s like Simon & Garfunkel, Seals & Crofts, and Loggins & Messina.
