A celebratory album release for the new album The Morning Dark! Fiddler, composer, singer, songwriter, visual artist, and community builder Hayden Stern, will play new compositions and a few trad tunes - for this concert joined by Ryan McKasson (fiddle, & viola) and Ezra Jane Landsman (guitar). Stern draws freely from multiple traditions, expanding his original base of Scottish fiddling to Irish, Scandinavian, French-Canadian, Appalachian, and beyond. But for his newest work, he’s focusing on composing tunes himself, bringing his roving ear and keen focus on arranging to a live performance built to rouse everyone to dance. Opening set by Vienna Scheyer and Colm MacCárthaigh. Presented by the Seattle Folklore Society. Hall opens at 7pm for the 7:30 concert in the Phinney Center Community Hall (lower Brick Building). Parking available on-site. Tickets $26 advance, $28 at the door ($2 discount for students, seniors, or members of SFS or PNA; special $10 price for Youth up to 17)
