7pm Doors / 7:30pm Show Friends and former Red Molly bandmates, Abbie Gardner & Carolann Solebello trade songs and stories in this intimate listening room. ABBIE GARDNER is a fiery dobro player with an infectious smile. Whether performing solo or with Americana harmony trio Red Molly, her acclaimed tales of love and loss, both gritty and sweet, are propelled by her impeccable lap style slide guitar playing. Solo performances feature the dobro as a solo instrument, bouncing between a solid rhythmic backbone and ripping lead lines, all in support of her voice and songs. Her latest recording DobroSinger hit #11 on the Billboard Blues Chart. It’s intimate, real and raw - her dobro and voice recorded at the same time at home, without a band or any studio tricks to hide behind. You can hear every breath, every chuckle, as if you are in the room with her. CAROLANN SOLEBELLO is a performing songwriter born and bred in New York City. Best known to folk audiences as a founding member of Americana trio Red Molly, she now tours as a solo troubadour and with modern folk foursome No Fuss and Feathers. Carolann’s smooth, compelling voice and warm acoustic guitar style nod to rural folk traditions while her decidedly urban sense of rhythm and sophisticated vocal phrasing plant her firmly in the present. An award-winning songwriter and proud member of AFM Local 1000, Carolann has five solo albums to her credit and is working on a sixth.
