Songs Of The Folk

Join us for a Sunday afternoon of quality Folk & Americana.

A.T. and Lauren Cason are lifetime musicians who perform original American folk and blues songs that harken back to the roots music of the American South as well as the 1960s Folk Revival artists of NYC’s Greenwich Village. It’s Simon & Garfunkel mixed with early Dylan, with a touch of Leonard Cohen and a helping of true Piedmont blues fingerstyle guitar from North Carolina.

Coming from a family of storytellers, A.T. writes stories and themes of the human condition into relatable songs of the most poetic, yet down-to-earth lyrics. His unique fingerstyle guitar-playing displays both sophisticated and ragtime techniques, and played on his 1935 Gibson L-00, is a most authentic accompaniment to the songs. A Suzuki-trained pianist since the age of three, Lauren enriches the tunes with beautiful countermelodies and pleasing harmonies while sometimes contributing elegant piano parts to certain songs.

A concert of Songs of the Folk is a concert of well-crafted music and lyrics, flawless harmonies, intricate instrumentation, and original storytelling. Audience members will leave impressed by the songwriting and fingerstyle guitar-playing, entranced by the refined vocal harmonies, and enamored with the exceptional lyricism, but most importantly, each person in the audience will leave full of enjoyment, feeling like an old friend of the Casons and a part of their Songs of the Folk.
