Miss Emily Brown with Corwin Fox as Morlove: June 26
Miss Emily Brown with Corwin Fox as Morlove: Saturday, June 26. Doors at 7:30pm. Concert 8:00pm. $10 ($7 student/artist). Local musician Matthew de Zoete opens. Morlove is the banding together of songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer Corwin Fox and folk-pop singer-songwriter Miss Emily Brown. Blending autoharp, banjo, guitar, mandolin and hushed vocal harmonies, this experimental folk band was born around the campfire of the 2007 Artswells Festival in Wells BC.
Pieces range from sparse, evocative folk-songs with quiet vocal harmonies and delicate strings to…. pulsing pianos and….banjos in unorthodox time signatures whispering the history of the 1930’s gold-rush town. “The music is thick and lush, reminiscent of amped folk played through an ancient jukebox full of nickels.” (Emily Brown)
Matthew de Zoete: Take a dozen new songs, a whole lot of melody, and a tight touring band. Throw them together in an old barn turned studio, and you’ve got Matthew’s second album ‘Bottom of the World’. ” Fresh, conceptual pop-rock, containing the talent of a singer-songwriter wise beyond his years.” (Emily Utter)
