If you like singing in groups, this will be a fantastic evening for you. This 10th year anniversary celebration of In Harmony’s Way will be part concert and part community sing. Performances by Bay Area folk singers will be followed by a community sing in the lobby, with everyone invited to join in, and even lead a song if you want.

Tonight’s show will feature a wide variety of singers and songs, but all of the songs have been chosen so that YOU, the audience, will be singing, too!

Tonight’s lineup of song leaders will be:

• Black Brothers. Famed charismatic charmers Michael & Shay Black from Ireland.

• Brass Farthing. An a cappella group of "stalwart lads" who focus on music of the Victorian and Edwardian periods.

• Larry Hanks & Deborah Robins. a fantastic duo specializing in old-time American songs.

• Holdstock & MacLeod. Dick Holdstock & Allan MacLeod, singers of the traditional English & Scottish songs of their homelands.

• Ed Silberman. Traditional singer and composer of In Harmony’s Way’s eponymous song.

• Karen Broder. Soulful blues chanteuse.

• Lonesome Chuck Wheeler. Cowboy poet and yodeler.

• Marlene McCall. Enthusiastic IHW organizer and singer in many genres.

• Mary O’Brien. Angelic Sacred Harp singer.

• Megan Messinger. Shanty singer extraordinaire.

• Riggy Rackin. Concertina player and traditional music singer.

Many of our beloved IHW song session attendees will be on stage to sing along on the choruses and refrains, along with the audience, in what's sure to be a joyous evening of song.

After the stage presentation, there will be a community sing in the lobby of the Freight. You’ll get to raise your voices and sing with everyone, and maybe even lead a song of your own! We look forward to an evening of harmony-packed renditions of new and traditional songs ranging from English drinking songs to sea chanteys to gospel to who knows what.
