California Folk: An evening with Mary McCaslin - Rick Shea - Fur Dixon & Steve Werner, Sunday April 18, McCabes, 7pm
Mary McCaslin represents an unbroken link between traditional American folksingers and today's "new folk" singer-songwriters. Known for her songs about the West, its landscape, and its outlaws as well as her insightful songs about relationships, Mary has influenced countless other performers. For many years before her current solo career, Mary toured with legendary singer Jim Ringer. Together they helped keep folk music on the map through some very lean years. www.marymccaslin.com
Acclaimed Los Angeles singer and songwriter Rick Shea cut his teeth in the Bars and Honky Tonks of San Bernardino and has gone on to build a solid career for himself as a solo artist, singer, guitarist and songwriter. Shea’s songs embrace everything from Norteño and border rock to the more traditional folk and country music of California that he grew up with and have been compared to the songs of Tom Russell, Kate Wolf and Dave Alvin. www.rickshea.com
Hailing from Van Nuys, California, but equally at home anywhere under the western sky, well-traveled California folk favorites Fur and Steve will take you on a rollicking musical joyride through the back roads and highways of the American West. Known for their dazzling two-part harmonies, their spectacular yodeling, awesome guitar picking, wise-cracking humor all serve to compliment their old and new-timey traveling songs. www.furandsteve.com
