Avi & Celia
Okay, if you don't know about these guys, you should. Their music is wonderful, fresh and compelling. . . onstage, they're an irresistable creative force--but you'll need to see them perform to understand why I say that.
Avi Salloway and Celia Woods-Smith. Go see them.
Photos 1-2 are from their performance at the Burlington Waterfront Park in May '07 as part of the
Young Traditions Concert series. Likewise, 3-11 are from the Young Traditions '08 performance a year later
(go to my Young Traditions Gallery to view all the performers in '06, '07, '08 and '09). Photos 12-45 were taken at their CD Release party for
"Let it Rise" at the Flynnspace in Burlington on September 26, 2008. Photos 46-57 are from the Young Traditions Showcase '09 at the Burlington Waterfront, and photos 58-67 are from the Young Traditions Concert on May 16, 2009 at Contois Auditorium, City Hall, Burlington.
Go to
Avi & Celia's website for more information, their performance schedule, bios and music samples. You can also get a copy of
Let it Rise there. It's terrific.
