Description
Old Sloop Coffeehouse is proud to present a concert featuring Ellis Saturday, February 10, at 7:30 PM at the handicap-accessible First Congregational Church of Rockport, 12 School St, with Rachael Kilgour opening.
There’s just something about Ellis. She is at once funny and wise, thoughtful and uninhibited, and her captivating voice is matched by her uplifting lyrics. Ellis’ performances are transformational; she leaves her audiences better than she finds them, with softened edges and opened hearts. She has appeared on A Prairie Home Companion 4 times.
Rachael Kilgour recently relocated from Duluth, Minnesota to Boston, and we are glad to have her! Her writing and delivery cut deep, with resolute simplicity. Sorrow, rage, resilience and compassion exist side by side within a series of honest and memorable melodies.
Coffee, tea, and a variety of delicious (and very popular) home-made baked pie and cake will be sold before and after the concert and at intermission.
