2 DAYS TO GO ✨

I feel incredibly grateful to work with such thoughtful, talented musicians. Every conversation reminded me why folk music matters so much—it carries stories, connects cultures, and speaks to something universal in all of us.

This concert isn’t just about one tradition; it’s a fusion of voices from around the world, coming together to share what folk music means to each of us.

I can’t wait for you to hear their stories and experience our live concert in two days.

FRIDAY, APRIL 10 2026
