Hungrytown returns to Foley Public Library

Posted

FOLEY - Folk musicians, Hungrytown, will be performing once again at the Foley Public Library on Tuesday, Jan. 7, at 6 p.m. Seating is limited so reservations are required.

After more than fifteen years of worldwide touring and three album releases, Rebecca Hall and Ken Anderson—otherwise known as the folk duo Hungrytown—have earned a reputation for the quality and authenticity of their songwriting.

“It’s great to hear an act eschew sentimentality in favor of honesty and to prove that you don’t have to go raiding the memory of others to find the stuff that really good songs are made of,” writes Jedd Beaudoin of Popmatters.

Lyricist Rebecca Hall is credited with compositions “that sound as timeless as any traditional songs” (Northern Sky, UK) while producer/multi-instrumentalist/husband Ken Anderson is lauded for his “remarkable affinity for instrumental embellishment” (No Depression) and for crafting Hungrytown’s “gorgeous vocal harmonies” (Folk and Roots, UK).

Hungrytown has a charisma and charm that are not often seen in performers. Their rapport with the audience is unique and only adds to the beauty of their music and their splendid performance. The Foley Public Library is fortunate to have them return and expects seats to get reserved quickly.

Please call 251-943-7665 to make a reservation. You can also find info on this and other events at www.foleylibrary.org or check the library’s Facebook page or Instagram account.
