Live music tonight with the Gray Sky Girls

8:00 p.m. - Valerie Richardson A studio appearance by the bluegrass duo the Gray Sky Girls out of Northampton, Massachusetts. The Gray Sky Girls are Naomi Sommers and Lisa Bastoni, two songwriters who teamed up after meeting in a small punk rock dive bar in Somerville, MA in 2004. As writers, both are heavily influenced by the traditional music they grew up with. As Gray Sky Girls, they pay tribute to their favorite bluegrass, folk and early country songs while weaving in their own original and complementary material. The Gray Sky Girls accompany themselves on guitar, banjo and mandolin--but the real focus is the honey-sweet, close-harmony singing they both clearly enjoy. Technorati tags: , , , , ,
