The NightCat hosts a folk double bill this Friday, September 16 with San Diego singer/songwriter Jenn Grinels and Duluth – based contemporary folk artist Charlie Parr.
“Grinels began to sing and the whole room stopped breathing … the words fell from her mouth like gems. A woman in the corner of the cafe cried.”
– Southeast Missourian
“Grinels’ natural strength and talent guarantees superstardom in her future”
– The MCLA Beacon
Charlie Parr is honest blood & guts.
There’s a reason why Greg Brown says, “I think he’s just wonderful and he really reminds me of a young Dave Van Ronk
… he’s got that kind of solid deal to him.”
Charlie Parr captures the intense sound of the folk music of America’s frozen north. His raw voice, lightning finger picking and plaintive but wry songs have made him one of the most important contemporary protagonists of the American folk tradition. (Bath International Music Festival)
