The Honey Dewdrops are an award winning, internationally touring husband and wife folk duo who perform fresh, original songs focusing on vocal harmonies and tight instrumentation. Influenced by traditional Appalachian music as well as contemporary singer-songwriters, the Honey Dewdrops blend old styles with new, creating music that is powerful and heartfelt. The Honey Dewdrops won A Prairie Home Companion's 2008 talent show, and were finalists in the 2009 Mountain Stage NewSong competition. Their latest studio CD, Silver Lining, reached number 1 on the Folk DJ charts in June 2012 and was the number 4 album of the year. Low Lily (the band formerly known as Annalivia) is an American 'roots and branches' string-band which draws from tradition and today to create their own brand of new acoustic folk music. The members of Annalivia are all masterful players and have long histories with traditional music, ranging from bluegrass to Irish, Scottish, New England and Old Time Appalachian music. This background, combined with each member's stellar compositional skills and cutting edge arranging chops, makes for music which sounds rooted yet contemporary. As a special treat, Lissa's husband, Corey DiMario of Crooked Still will join Low Lily on double bass for this performance.
