PHIPPSBURG — Folk musicians Cindy Kallet and Grey Larsen will play in concert at 7:30 p.m. today at the Phippsburg Congregational Church.
“The evening’s program will include original and traditional songs of the heart and songs of the New England coast, old-time fiddle, Scandinavian fiddle duets, traditional Irish tunes and more,” a release from organizers states.
A featured guest on Garrison Keilor’s “A Prairie Home Companion,” Kallet has recorded numerous albums. She has been writing music and playing the guitar since she was 11 years old, and has performed throughout the United States for more than 30 years.
Larsen is an internationally respected performer of the Irish flute and tin whistle as well as an accomplished singer and concertina, fiddle, piano and harmonium player.
“Larsen joins the silken grace of the East Galway flute style with the driving momentum found in Irish music at large,” the release states.
While he is best know for Irish music, Larsen plays half a dozen instruments and is at home in several musical styles.
Phippsburg Congregational Church is located at 10 Church Lane off Parker Head Road. Tickets will be available at the door. Admission costs $12 for adults or $8 for students and children. Children younger than 8 will be admitted free.
Refreshments will be served. Doors open at 7 p.m. For more information, call 389-1770.
