An Evening with Slaid Cleaves is set to begin at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, May 13, at Christ Church, 2 Dresden Ave. in Gardiner.
The music of the Texas-based singer/songwriter is rooted in traditional country and folk forms, but is distinct enough to have held interest amidst a sea of singer/songwriters since the 1990s. While he released a handful of recordings during the early ’90s, he gained significant notice with No Angel Knows, which was released on Rounder’s Philo subsidiary in 1997.
Joined by Lucinda Williams guitarist and producer Gurf Morlix, Cleaves combined his interest in folk songs, early rock and roll, and traditional country music into an amalgamation of styles becoming known at that time as Americana.
This show is part of the Johnson Hall On the Road Series and takes place off-site from Johnson Hall while our theater undergoes a full renovation.
