March 1, 2008 – First House Concert Features
Barb Barton
Our inaugural house concert on Saturday, March 1, 2008, featured Barb Barton, celebrating the release of her CD, The River. She played cuts from this new all-instrumental album, plus shared selections from her upcoming CD (due for May, 2008 release).
“ONE WOMAN WITH ONE GUITAR and a boundless repertoire of songs about the lessons that life teaches us. Barb finds the common threads we all share and puts them into verse and music…”
Ten Percent
As a performer with a unique musical style, Barb imparts intimate wisdom, heart and courage into her songs and guitar playing. Offering songs with memorable melodies and lyrical stories, along with humor and tenderness, she transmits an ease to life and sense of independence that is contagious to her listeners.
In honor of her two-handed fingering style of playing, I treated the guests to an array of funky finger-foods to munch on during intermission.
