Erica Brown and Darlin' Corey live at Stone Mountain
Dinner and a show! Come and experience Stone Mountain! If you haven't before now is the time! Wonderful food and staff in New England's best listening room in beautiful Brownfield, Maine near North Conway, NH and Fryeburg, ME
Darlin’ Corey features the singing and playing of three accomplished
Portland, ME musicians known for their engaging live performances and
contributions to the East Coast music scene. Award winning fiddler and
singer Erica Brown on fiddle, guitar and vocals; notable singer-
songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Matt Shipman on guitar, vocals,
mandolin, bouzouki and banjo; and highly regarded bass player, Kris
Day.
Their music draws influences of North American traditional folk, old
time and bluegrass from Appalachia to Eastern Canada. Matt and Erica’s
elegant vocal harmonies are the beating heart of their sound in both their
original songs and unique blend of roots music they regularly showcase.
In Darlin’ Corey’s singing and playing, you can feel the many years of
dedication to these celebrated musical traditions. Soulful, genuine and
full of heart.
Erica Brown’s fiddle-playing is at turns virtuosic and completely
unpretentious. Matt Shipman is an ideal counterpart as his versatility on
a dizzying array of stringed instruments (guitar, Irish bouzouki, 5-string
banjo, mandolin) blend seamlessly, never timid or overpowering. Kris
Day holds it all together with his solid bass playing.
Recent highlights include performances at venues and festivals like the
Blackstone River Theatre, Firehouse Center for the Arts, Chocolate
Church Arts Center, Camden Opera House, Stone Mountain Arts Center,
Ossipee Valley Music Festival. They have collaborated with The Bangor
Symphony Orchestra and were featured on Tom Rush's Rockport
Sundays.
If you like artists such as The Stray Birds, Gillian Welch and David
Rawlings, Tim O’Brien, Salamander Crossing, Alison Krauss, Rani Arbo
and Daisy Mayhem and Sara Jarosz, then Darlin’ Corey is sure to be
your new favorite!
