Details
Yay!
Saturday night Rail House Concert featuring Evie Ladin with Erik Pearson 10/29!
If you've never seen Evie before... She is a badass. She Clawhammers, sings, dances/clogs, and is EXCITING AF to see! A multidimensional entertainer. She's also very cool and good people. She plays for us on Saturday, then Swallow Hill Sunday. Don't miss this! I've been hoping to get her back since the last time she was here in June 2006 and I am psyched!
The polyrhythmic heat of Evie Ladin’s clawhammer banjo, resonant voice, real stories and rhythmic dance have been heard from A Prairie Home Companion to Lincoln Center, Celtic Connections to Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, Brazil to Bali. A prolific creator and gracious facilitator, Evie grew up steeped in traditional folk music/dance up and down the East Coast, bringing a syncretic vision to new work while holding fast to the roots.

Evie writes clever lyrics with mature arrangements, calls rowdy square dances for urban crowds, choreographs new body music/percussive dance for contemporary dance and film, leads seminars in movement anthropology, rocks straight up old time clawhammer banjo, and gardens, from the vibrant homebase of Oakland, California. She’s won ribbons and arts fellowships, performed in sold out concert halls and cozy living rooms, and toured around the world, to every state in the US except Florida. She’s never been to Florida.
Appearing with long time bandmate Erik Pearson, a musician’s musician with the Crooked Jades, storyteller Diane Ferlatte, and his solo projects. His original banjo tune “Fork & File” was the soundtrack for a rapids rafting scene in Sean Penn’s movie Into the Wild.
