SUMMARY:SOLD OUT!! An Evening of Music with Mark & Raianne
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy the original folk-style performance and vocal harmonies of Mark Mandeville & Raianne Richards in an intimate listening room setting. General admission seating. Beverages and snacks will be available for purchase. No outside food or drink.\n \nLittle by little\, you will get to know Mark Mandeville & Raianne Richards through their unmistakable vocal harmonies\, poetic lyrics and down-to-earth personae. They are a married musical couple based out of Webster\, Massachusetts. These prolific and hard working Massachusetts-based artists have contributed over seventeen albums within their first decade and toured consistently throughout the US and Canada. \nTheir songs poetically reflect personal experiences as factory workers\, teachers\, community organizers\, and natives of post-industrial mill towns in central Massachusetts. The memories of days gone by and toils of history can be better remembered through songs such as “That Old Machine” or “Winds of Change.” Listeners feel refreshed lyrics with references to elements in nature. \nAccompanying themselves on guitar\, harmonica\, ukulele\, penny whistle\, electric bass\, and most uniquely clarinet\, their live performances are both musically captivating and spiritually uplifting as audiences are carefully balanced between serious songs and humorous commentary – concert goers will leave feeling a bit more human\, as if they have experienced something genuine. \nWatch a music video for “Winds of Change” HERE \nTHIS EVENT IS NOW SOLD OUT!! STAY TUNED FOR FUTURE SHOWS.
