What:
If you want a lesson in organic chemistry, take notes as you watch the sparks fly between the acoustic down home duo, Coyote Grace. This folktastic phenomenon is the result of combining one guitarist Joe Stevens, a transman from Northern California, with one upright bassist Ingrid Elizabeth, a sassy femme originally hailing from the hills of Southeastern Ohio. Together, they capture the eyes and the hearts of live audiences nationwide with their bluesy folkroots sound, sweet harmonies, poignant songwriting, and mid-song dance moves. [Tickets go on-sale August 6th for this performance.]
