Adler & Hearne – Jazz Folk Duo
Thursday, August 16 @ 8:00
A spirited blend of original Folk Jazz with deep Texas roots.
From
Texas’ upper east side, award-winning singer-songwriters Lynn Adler and
Lindy Hearne are looking to reach audiences from one coastline to the
other. Their music has a little bit of everything for everyone – an
original blend of hearty folk, somber jazz, bluer blues, and wholesome
Texas roots.
With over twelve recordings and decades of touring between this
duo, their repertoire is one that is playful, poignant and poetic –
including sparky love ballads, historically based tributes, children’s
music, quirky story songs, modern-day spirituals, and anthems of justice
and peace.
Raised by musical families and nurtured by choirs through college,
the two met in Nashville, and now pay it forward together in
performances from listening-room venues, festivals and community events
to churches, libraries and schools. Lynn co-wrote the theme song for the
hit PBS children’s TV series “Wishbone.” Her diverse writing background
brings added experience to the duo’s workshops and presentations.
Lindy sang in the famed Texas Boys Choir as a child, and for several
years he and his band were Roy Clark’s backup group performing with Roy
from Las Vegas to Hee Haw to Carnegie Hall. How to describe Adler &
Hearne’s music and vibe? Think ‘song circle’ between Johnny and June
Cash, Antonio Carlos Jobim and Astrud Gilberto, and Gordon Lightfoot and
Joni Mitchell.
