Carolyn Cruso

Greetings supporters and enjoyers of live local music!

Isle be Jammin’ Performer’s Showcase is presenting  Carolyn Cruso and Alison Post in concert Thursday Sept 22 at 7;00pm.  This concert will be sure to please as Carolyn shares her brilliant hammer dulcimer playing and  wonderful voice, guitar and stories.  She lives on Orcas Island and travels the country sharing her spirit and talents. She has received high accolades from cd reviewers and concert promoters.

“Cruso’s work is expressive and fluid…her guitar work is exceptional….this is passionate stuff!….” Victory Music Review, Seattle

Alison Post lives on Waldron Island and is a folk-roots singer with  sweet melodies and  sensitive lyrics. She plays guitar, and for this event, multi-instrumentalist Mark Minkler will be accompanying her. She has sung in rock bands and performed at the Seattle Folk Life Festival as well as small clubs through out the Northwest. Her newest demo cd with Orville Johnson is to be released in the near future.

There will be two individual sets with a combined finale of harmonic sharing.
