Sisters In Song, the kickoff concert for The Sanctuary Series on Thursday July 13th at 7 pm, will feature Grammy-nominated Sarah Siskind, Amanda Ann Platt (Of Amanda Ann Platt & The Honeycutters) and Jane Kramer in an intimate, in-the-round style performance of their original songs, stories and harmonies. Ticket sales will benefit Asheville nonprofit, Sistas Caring 4 Sistas Siskind, Platt and Kramer have heaps of songwriting acclaim, decades-long careers and thousands of miles toured between them. Each are mothers, full-time artists, pillars of the regional americana / folk music scene and masters of their craft. Their songs, and the delivery of them in each of their uniqe voices, take listeners on a poignant journey into the core of what it truly means to be human; the beauty, the humor and the ache. This is a first-time co-billing and collaboration for the trio, and their musical chemistry and complimentary voices are both memorable and magnetic. (See video below.) You won't want to miss this powerful evening of songs and stories.
