INTERVIEWS AND CONCERTS FOR THE WEEK
Monday 05/28
A LIVING ROOM CONCERT WITH SUMNER MCKANE
Ambient Americana in a Maine basement
Melodies flow so easily from Sumner McKane's electric guitar that its easy to over-look his extraordinary technique. But you'll hear it when he plays live in his basement studio. Joined by electric bassist Joshua Robbins, Sumner puts a bit of country twang into ambient atmospheres, playing music from his latest album, Two If By Sea.
