Darke
County Center for the Arts
Extreme
Guitar Duo to perform at Union City
Arts Depot
Darke
County Center for the Arts will present
Extreme Guitar Duo in concert at the Arts Depot in Union City on
Thursday,
October 25. According to DCCA Artistic Director Keith Rawlins, Keith
Knight and
Don Alder, the energetic guitarists who make up the Duo, play a wide
range of
musical genres including modern finger-style guitar, delta blues,
Appalachian
folk, bluegrass, and calypso on 6-string and 12-string guitars, harp
guitars,
dobros, and mandolin, and frequently add vocals to the mix. The show, a
part of
DCCA's casual Coffeehouse Series, begins at 7 p.m.
“The
Duo's collaboration takes audiences to the
extreme edge of modern guitar finger-picking, thus the name,” Rawlins
stated.
“These two guys are monster players who deliver an unforgettable upbeat
performance peppered with delightfully engaging stories that charm all
ages and
make the Extreme Duo a perfect fit for our Coffeehouse Series,” Rawlins
concluded.
DCCA's
Coffeehouse Series was created to offer
performances by high quality artists in comfortable social settings
where food
and drink are also available. The Coffeehouse Series is sponsored by
Julie and
Tom Graber, Eileen and Steve Litchfield, and Rodney Oda. Darke County
Center
for the Arts also receives support from local businesses, foundations,
and the
Ohio Arts Council, which helped fund this program with state tax
dollars to
encourage economic growth, educational excellence, and cultural
enrichment for
all Ohioans.
