INTERVIEWS AND CONCERTS FOR THE WEEK

Monday 10/13
AN INTERVIEW WITH FERNWOOD
Acoustic Americana world chamber music
Fernwood is a group that's hard to pin down. They mix Americana elements with Appalachian strings along with bouzouki's from the Middle East and Ireland and sitars from India. Headed up by Todd Montgomery and Gayle Ellett who also plays guitar in the ultra-progressive rock band, Djam Karet, Fernwood creates a global chamber music with Americana accents and cinematically inclined melodies. Fernwood talks about music made on wooden instruments, on Echoes.

It's space guitars on the next Echoes when we hear musicians stretching the idea six electric strings in new directions. For these musicians, guitar heroes are out, but layered guitars, morphing into new sounds and draped in infinite reverb are in.
