APR 27 – Kate MacLeod’s Mind The Gap
Sunday, April 27 at 3:00 pm (doors open 2:30)
Kate MacLeod’s Mind the Gap is a Neo-Traditional Americana band that performs striking original and traditional music.
Mind the Gap features award-winning songwriter and instrumentalist Kate MacLeod on fiddle, guitar, and the rare Appalachian lap dulcimer, accompanied by vocalist/guitarist Paul Hammerton, vocalist/bassist John Bryant, and vocalist/mandolinist Matthew Metz.
Kate’s original songs have been recorded by other artists from California to Europe in Bluegrass, Celtic, and other roots music genres. Grammy-winning musician Tim O’Brien produced her Blooming recording, and Grammy-winning bluegrass artist Laurie Lewis included one of Kate’s songs on her 2024 recording release. As stated by SingOut! Magazine, Kate “channels the spirit of the great Carter Family classics.”
She has toured in the United States, Canada, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Germany, Austria, Italy, and the UK.
In concert, you’ll hear the band’s renditions of classics such as Wildwood Flower, Milwaukee Blues, and some of Kenny Baker’s fiddle tunes, along with Kate’s original songs and instrumental pieces.
