First Stage For Families, David Holt, Songs and Stories of Appalachia, February 12, 2012

Overview

Cal Performances' new First Stage For Families Series is the ideal introduction to the magical world of music, dance, and theater! A gateway to the Family Fare performances featured on our main stages, First Stage For Families for Families features lively one-hour events in Wheeler Auditorium, offering young people and their grownups an opportunity to experience a diverse range of artistry in an intimate space. Sample something new, meet the artists, and join other budding performing arts enthusiasts for three Sunday gatherings on the 2011/12 Season.

Best known for his folk music and storytelling recordings as well as his television and radio series (including Folkways on PBS and Riverwalk on public radio), four-time Grammy winner David Holt has been collecting songs and stories of the Southern Mountains for over 30 years and is dedicated to performing and preserving traditional American folk arts and stories. Joyful, funny, and highly entertaining, Holt plays 10 acoustic instruments and delivers a memorable show guaranteed to please music lovers of all ages.
