The Bluffton Town Hall Concert Series for 2014-15 will launch with a performance by Andru Bemis and Tomo Brosseau at 7 p.m., Wednesday, Aug. 27, in the town hall, according to Wendy Chappell-Dick.
There will be an opening act by Sam Stuckey, of Bluffton University.
Here's what Wendy says about the performers:
"Andru has performed in Bluffton several times, and his musicianship, unique sound and songwriting genius keeps him one of our all-time favorite performers.
"Andru Bemis is a critically–acclaimed American singer–songwriter and acoustic performer on the banjo, guitar, and fiddle. He’s also an itinerant piano tuner, letterpress printer, public transit advocate, sound engineer, and founder of a community performance center in his hometown of South Haven, Michigan.
"Tom Brosseau is a folksinger and songwriter from North Dakota. His grandmother Lillian Uglem taught him the acoustic guitar while he was in grade school. He has toured Japan, Canada, Portugal, Iceland, Australia; performed in bars, backyards, grand halls, subways, theaters, old folks homes; exchanged songs and poetry with many talented folks, including Susan Orlean, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Patrick Marber, Bonnie Raitt and the late Sam Hinton."
