BELLOWS FALLS — Kirsten Manville and Tim Foley will co-headline the Stage 33 Live listening room on 33 Bridge St., on Sunday, April 10, in a limited-seating 3 p.m. matinee.
Singer/songwriter Kirsten Manville's latest album, Some People Sing, was a Metronome magazine top-five album pick, and she was subsequently featured on the cover.
Her song, “...but Down,” was an Alternate Root magazine Top-10 selection. A blend of Americana, folk, country, and blues, her songs about finding and losing love, hard times, and small pleasures “feel like they may have come straight from journal entries,” according to a news release.
The release continues, “Tim Foley doesn't settle easily into any box. He lived in New Orleans for a number of years, and his music is heavily influenced by that city's traditions of experimentation and fusion - gravitating toward blues, jazz, folk, classical, and funk in a variety of tunings and styles ranging from upbeat foot-stompers to melodic soundscapes.”
Kirsten and Tim will perform both separately and together. Seating is limited to 40. The performances will be recorded and filmed. $10 recommended donation; advance donations through stage33live.com double as chair reservations. Nobody will be turned away for lack of money.
The performers' preference is that the COVID-19 protocol will be the guidelines in effect in the community on show day. Currently the guidance is that masks are optional, although that may change without notice.
