Singer/songwriters Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O’Donovan and Sara Watkins have each entertained our audiences at the Appell Center in recent years. This fall on November 9, the trio brings their luminous harmonies together for the first time in the Strand Theatre with favorite folk tunes and new material exploring themes of ancestry, lineage and the collective human experience.
Special guests Ye Vagabonds will open the show. This Irish folk music duo has been described as “being at the fore of a new wave of Irish folk.”
More about I’M WITH HER
With the 2014 formation of I’m With Her, singer/songwriters Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O’Donovan, and Sara Watkins introduced an essential new force into the world of folk music: a close-knit alliance of highly esteemed musicians, each graced with a deep understanding of folk tradition and unbridled passion for expanding its possibilities. Since delivering their critically lauded debut See You Around and standalone singles like “Call My Name” (winner of the 2020 Grammy for Best American Roots Song), the trio have routinely taken time out from their individual careers to dream up songs together—eventually arriving at a new album exploring themes of ancestry, lineage, and the collective human experience. On their long-awaited sophomore LP Wild and Clear and Blue, I’m With Her now bring their luminous harmonies to a soul-searching body of work about reaching into the past, navigating a chaotic present, and bravely moving forward into the unknown.
