Tall Heights
Feb. 5th @ 7 PM
DCCA Coffee House Series at The Montage Cafe
Tall Heights is a hard-to-classify musical duo which in just a little
more than four years has advanced from busking in Boston to touring
nationally and playing high-profile festivals such as Cincinnati's
Buckle Up and Austin's South By Southwest. Darke County Center for the
Arts will present Tall Heights at Montage Cafe in downtown Greenville
on Feb. 5, as part of its Coffeehouse Series featuring musical
performances in a casual relaxed atmosphere where food and drink are
available for purchase. The show starts at 7 p.m.
Tom Harrington and Paul Wright are childhood friends with differing
musical preferences who honed their songwriting and performance skills
in Boston's famed Faneuil Hall Marketplace. According to DCCA Artistic
Director Keith Rawlins, Tall Heights' delicate vocal harmonies feature
poetic lyrics accompanied by Tom's shimmering guitar work and Paul's
edgy cello. "Describing their music is difficult, especially in today's
genre-driven marketplace," Rawlins said. "Tall Heights contemporary
sound has ageless qualities, and has been described as Americana,
redefined folk, indie chamber music, and New Age Appalachian fusion;
they are just really, really good, and DCCA is thrilled to be able to
present them as they gain acclaim around the country and continue their
rise to the top of the music world," Rawlins concluded.
DCCA's Coffeehouse Series is sponsored by The Andersons Marathon LLC,
Julie and Tom Graber, Eileen and Steve Litchfield, and Rodney Oda. The
Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program with state tax dollars to
encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural
enrichment for all Ohioans. DCCA also receives operating support from
the Harry D. and Esther Stephens Memorial as well as funding from the
Ketrow Foundation and Lydia E. Schaurer Memorial Trust Fund.
Tickets for the Tall Heights show cost $10, and can be reserved by
contacting DCCA at 547-0908 ordcca@centerforarts.net, or purchased at
DCCA's office located within Greenville Public Library as well as
