About this event
A native of Newfoundland, Keith's traditional song repertoire is based in Eastern Canada and Quebec as well as his current home, Vermont, suggested donation $25-30 (all proceeds go to Keith).
Registration is required. To register: email Betsy at fiddlefrau@gmail.com or text to 971-570-2078.
A multi-instrumentalist, he is well known for his creative ensemble work which often features his driving style of guitar playing, as well as mandolin, piano, and French Canadian foot percussion (Nightingale, Childsplay, Popcorn Behavior, Hanneke Cassel Band).
As a solo performer, Keith's music is a showcase of wonderful versions of traditional songs collected in his native Newfoundland as well as great ballads and songs found in New England, particularly by the famous collector Helen Harkness Flanders. It's a captivating repertoire of songs, often underpinned by a subtly percussive finger style of guitar playing, using a multitude of open tunings.
