WYEP Presents:https://wyep.org/ Sat Nov 21st Doors 7PM | Show 8PM $25 ADV | $30 DOS 21+ Rolling Stone has called Charlie Parr's music , "rdquo" -> a gritty blend of Delta blues and Depression-era roots music soaked in his hardscrabble voice. It's a sacred realm of folk wisdom and sorrowful vulnerability." NPR said he offers , "rdquo" -> expertly-picked resonator guitar and lyrics that puncture the soul." Parr tours prolifically, and has performed at tastemaker events like the Newport Folk Fest and Pickathon. The Duluth-based guitarist, songwriter, and interpreter of traditional music has released twenty albums over two-and-a-half decades and has been known to perform up to 275 shows a year. Parr is a folk troubadour in the truest sense: taking to the road between shows, writing and rewriting songs as he plays, fueled by a belief that music is eternal and cannot be claimed or adequately explained. The sounds from his working-class upbringing---including Folkways legends such as Lead Belly and Woody Guthrie---imbue Parr's music with stylistic echoes of blues and folk icons of decades past. Parr sees himself merely as a continuer of a folk tradition. Parr's mastery of his craft is only more apparent when contextualized within the history of folk tradition to which Parr has dedicated his practice. The land and lives around and intersecting with Parr have always influenced him, from the hills and valleys of Hollandale, Minnesota to the Depression-era stories from his father. Parr's first album with Smithsonian Folkways, Last of the Better Days Ahead (2021), foregrounded his lyrical craftsmanship and sophisticated bluesman confidence, with spare production highlighting Parr's mastery of guitar and elevating his blues poetry. In his 2024 release, Little Sun, Parr weaved together stories celebrating music, community, and communing with nature. In doing so, he put forth an ambitious and raw album that exemplifies the best of Parr's sound: his blend of the blues and folk traditions with the steadfast originality of a poet. Now, he continues that tradition with 2026's poignant and timely Rooming House, which joins the chorus of WPA-era socially-conscious folk operas and outlaw country concept albums of the 1970s to poignantly allegorize his experiences and the experiences of the people around him. Maisy Owen, a Nashville native, has been surrounded by music and the art of songcraft just about all of her life. First came the viola at the age of 9, then guitar where she embraced fingerpicking while soaking in influences from Nick Drake, Bert Jansch, Mazzy Star and David Olney. Raised in a musical family, her father Gwil Owen is an Academy Award-nominated songwriter. Maisy's unique sound, musical truth and stirring vocals inhabit Dark On A Sunny Day, her debut album released in May of 2026 on Tompkins Square and produced by Robin Eaton (known for his work with Jill Sobule). Drawn to melancholic melodies and dark poetic imagery, Dark On A Sunny Day has been garnering accolades from the likes of MOJO, Uncut, The Bluegrass Situation, KCRW, BBC Radio and Nashville Scene among others.
