Harpists defy categorization

Posted

HAWLEY, PA — Harmony Presents will showcase harpists Addi and Jacq on Saturday, October 24 at 8 p.m. “Their music tremors with Parisian Café Pop, subterranean classical, R&B and soul, resisting traditional standards,” said Jill Carletti, managing director of Harmony Presents. “Just very recently Addi and Jacq have been crowned the ‘best emerging band in NYC’ when they won the 2015 NPR-WNYC Battle of the Boroughs. The variety in Addi and Jacq’s output can be partly attributed to their wide range of musical influences, which they said include everyone from Mozart to Radiohead, Rufus Wainwright to Paul Simon. While some buzz with quick vocals and smart rhymes, others bubble slowly with blended voices. All are grounded by skilled writing, singing, and playing.”

The show takes place in the underground theater of the Hawley Silk Mill located at 8 Silk Mill Dr. Tickets cost $16 to $20. Call 570/588-8077.
