NEVADA CITY, Calif. February 8, 2019 – In a special Valentine’s Day collaboration, Kelly Fleming (vocals, guitar) and Sally Ashcraft (vocals) will present “Celtic Songs of Love & Longing” at Nevada City’s Broad Street Bistro, 426 Broad Street, on Thursday, February 14, starting at 7:30 pm. The duo will sing some of their favorite traditional Scottish and Irish songs, plus a few of Kelly Fleming’s finely crafted originals, and invite the audience to join in.
“Kelly and I both love Celtic music and delight in bringing people together to sing,” says Ashcraft. “Especially for Valentine’s Day, we’ve chosen songs that have a certain sweet quality, plus good choruses.” She continues, “Given the repertoire, it’s a challenge to entirely avoid themes of unrequited love and shipwrecks! Still, we’re hoping people come away uplifted, with a sense of joy and shared community.”
Doors will open at 7pm. The Bistro will have beverages and tasty items available for purchase. There will be two sets of music, starting at 7:30; the event will conclude about 9:30 pm. Seating is limited. Admission is $15; get tickets at https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/4071522
