Jim Malcolm
Saturday, January 23, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. in Beckman Institute Auditorium (building 74 on the map)

Admission is $15 for adults and $5 for Caltech students and children.
Tickets may be obtained from the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

Scotsman, Jim Malcolm, former lead singer for the acclaimed Old Blind Dogs, will travel to Caltech from his home in Perth, Scotland. Jim sings traditional songs and is also an extraordinary songwriter, who writes with passion and humor. He plays guitar and harmonica and is a delightful oberver of life on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. He's a fine singer, and as those who heard his previous solo shows or his two visits with the Dogs already know, he is a very engaging performer. His most recent CD, released earlier this year, is entitled The First Cold Day. It begins with Andy Stewart's song, "Valley of Strathmore," and includes six new original compositions, as well as Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken," which he put to music.Dirty Linen wrote called it, "Lively humor, a touch of magic, a nod to Robert Burns and connection with home and loved ones, set in memorable words to fine melodies - it's a thoughtful and generous collection, well worth repeated listening." This will be another fine evening of music and fun with Jim Malcolm!


Steve Gillette and Cindy Mangsen
Saturday, February 13, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. in Beckman Institute Auditorium (building 74 on the map)

Admission is $15 for adults and $5 for Caltech students and children.
Tickets may be obtained from the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

We always look forward to the return of Steve Gillette and Cindy Mangsen to Caltech! Before 1989, Steve Gillette was a fixture in the local California folk music scene, widely known as an exceptional guitarist and a hugely talented songwriter, co-writer of the classic ballad, Darcy Farrow, among many other fine songs, some recorded by major performers like Ian and Sylvia, John Denver, and Garth Brooks. Then, he dropped out of sight, later returning to California from his new home in Vermont, with his new wife, Cindy, when he first brought this eastern singer and songwriter to California on tour. Even at this early stage of their career together, it was obvious that there was a towering amount of talent and chemistry here, and the Caltech Folk Music Society was lucky to be able to present them the next year. It has been a great relationship ever since, and their audience can always depend on new songs, some old favorites, and a lot of fun and stories of what they've been up to in the intervening two years.

Steve is a fine songwriter who has written many great songs over the years. From "Back on the Street Again" to "That Song About the River," he's written a truckload of memorable songs. He's a strong, confident, and innovative guitarist, and a he has a very fine voice. And speaking of fine voices, you won't find a more beautiful voice than Cindy Mangsen's warm, full bodied vocals. She more than holds her own in the elite company of Priscilla Herdman and Anne Hills on the trio albums they have done together. Cindy plays guitar, a bit of banjo, and her concertina adds greatly to their sound. She too is a talented songwriter, though not as prolific. Steve and Cindy are also great song finders, and they bring some exceptional songs written by others, as well as a few older traditional songs and ballads. Don't miss them!


Wailin' Jennys
Saturday, February 27 (8:00 PM)
in Beckman Auditorium (building 91 on the map)
presented by Caltech Campus Programs, along with the Caltech Folk Music Society as marketing partner

Regular prices are $26, $21, $16, ($10 for youth) and there is a $5 discount if you mention the Caltech Folk Music Society when ordering or buying tickets at the door! Advance tickets are available at the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

The Wailin' Jennys started out in Winnipeg, Canada and have made their brand of vocal music a huge worldwide attraction. Soprano Ruth Moody (guitar, banjo, accordion, bodhran), mezzo Nicky Mehta (guitar, harmonica, ukulele, percussion), and alto Heather Masse (upright bass) form this trio of amazing singers who tour the world and have a great following. They draw from folk, bluegrass, old time and jazz, and their harmonies are exquisite. They could easily be an a cappella group, but they are also talented musicians, as well. If you enjoyed Moira Smiley and VOCO, or the Chapin Sisters, when they performed here at Caltech, you'll love the Jennys.

"Like Gilian Welch or Alison Krauss, they make new songs feel traditional and old songs sound brand new" — All Music Guide

Admission is $20 for adults and $5 for Caltech students and children.

Tommy Sands, the great Irish singer, along with his daughter, Moya and his son, Fionan, will be making their first appearance at Caltech. Tommy, from County Down, Ireland, lives the true life of the Irish bard, traveling the world and sharing his music and a message of hope. He has long been active in the effort to reconcile Protestants and Catholics in Norther Ireland and he extends this message in an effort to bring people together around the world. Sing Out! Magazine wrote, "Tommy Sands is one of the most important songwriters in Ireland if not the rest of the world. . ." He has been compared to Pete Seeger in terms of ease with which he brings people together with music. Pete, himself, wrote, "Tommy Sands has achieved that difficult but wonderful balance between knowing and loving the traditions of his home and being concerned with the future of the whole world. . . " Tommy's songs, which have been recorded by the likes of Joan Baez, Dick Gaughan, Robbie O'Connell, and many others, include the outstanding "There Were Roses" and "Daughters and Sons". Radio Leipzig announced, "One moment my tears were of sorrow, the next moment they were tears of joy, his songs are unforgettable stories. . . " Accompanying himself on guitar, whistles, and banjo, the music is wonderfully reinforced by Moya's vocals and fiddle and Fionan's mandolin and banjo. This will be the trio's only concert in Southern California on this tour, so don't miss this show!


Ladysmith Black Mambazo
Friday, March 12 (8:00 PM)
in Beckman Auditorium (building 91 on the map)
presented by Caltech Campus Programs, along with the Caltech Folk Music Society as marketing partner

Regular prices are $35, $30, $25, ($10 for youth) and there is a $5 discount if you mention the Caltech Folk Music Society when ordering or buying tickets at the door! Advance tickets are available at the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

Ladysmith Black Mambazo first came to many American's attention when Paul Simon incorporated their music into his Graceland album, over 20 years ago. This South African ensemble acts as outstanding ambassadors for their country, and they were there on stage singing at Nelson Mandella's historic inauguration in 1994. Caltech Public Events has presented them on numerous occasions, and their vocals and movements on stage are truly inspirational and awe inspiring. Their CD, Ilembe: Honoring Shaka Zulu won the 2009 Grammy Award for Best Traditional World Music CD. Experiencing Ladysmith Black Mambazo is a joyous experience.


Chris Stuart and Backcountry
Saturday, March 20 at 8:00 p.m. in Beckman Institute Auditorium (building 74 on the map)

Admission is $15 for adults and $5 for Caltech students and children.
Tickets may be obtained from the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

After trying for quite some time, we've just signed this fine bluegrass band for a show at Caltech. They are loaded with talent. Chris Stuart is lead singer and rhythm guitarist with the group and he is also an accomplished songwriter whose songs have been recorded by Claire Lynch, Dale Ann Bradley, Doyle Lawson, and other great performers from the bluegrass world. Janet Beazley plays banjo and is a wonderful singer as well. Eric Uglum, veteran of numerous bluegrass bands, plays lead guitar and mandolin and he also sings. His sons, Austin Ward (bass) and Christian Ward (fiddle) recently released "The Old Road to Jerusalem," recorded with their dad. Chris, Janet, and Eric all have solo albums, too, so these guys keep busy.


Priscilla Herdman
Saturday, April 24, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. in Beckman Institute Auditorium (building 74 on the map)

Admission is $15 for adults and $5 for Caltech students and children.
Tickets may be obtained from the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

Priscilla Herdman burst onto the national music scene way back in 1977 with her album, The Water Lilly. Because it included seven songs with words by Australian poet, Henry Lawson, many of us thought initially that she herself, was Austrailian, though she is an American who grew up in New York state. She is only an occasional songwriter, but in the intervening years, she has released an album on an average of every third year, and she has proven herself to be an extraordinary selector of songs . These songs range from well known songwriters, such as John McCutcheon, Stan Rogers, and Utah Phillips, but more often are from lesser known writers, such as Bill Staines and Connie Kaldor. She has made us aware of many fine performers by including obscure, but priceless songs on her CDs and in her repertoire.

Priscilla is an exceptional singer. She has a pure, beautiful voice and sings with conviction to her material that is striking. Opportunities to hear her on the West Coast are rare, and we are extremely proud that she chooses to perform at Caltech on her rare tours here. Don't miss this rare treat!


Laurie Lewis and Tom Rozum
Saturday, May 15, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. in Beckman Institute Auditorium (building 74 on the map)

Admission is $15 for adults and $5 for Caltech students and children.
Tickets may be obtained from the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

We are very excited that Laurie Lewis and Tom Rozum are coming to Caltech! Laurie is one of the finest singers and songwriters around, and Tom is equally talented and essentially shares the top billing in this dream show for us. Laurie is one of those few people who not only embodies the highest talents of bluegrass and folk greats like Bill Monroe, but she forges ahead and continues to shape the bluegrass world and achieve new heights. Along with her singing and songwriting talents, Laurie is a fine fiddle player and guitarist. She's won a Grammy and has twice been named Female Vocalist of the Year by the IBMA (International Bluegrass Music Association). IBMA executive director Dan Hays said, "Laurie is one of the pre-eminent bluegrass and Americana artists of our time. She spreads her talent over several genres – bluegrass, folk, country – and with the recognition she has within all those fields, I would certainly say she's one of the top five female artists of the last 30 years. And she continues to make great music."

Tom Rozum has been performing with Laurie Lewis for 23 years or so. He is an exceptional mandolin and guitar player, and his vocals, both lead and harmony with Laurie, are outstanding. He has a strong interest in old time and swing music, and whether he's singing harmony on "Texas Bluebonnets" or lead on "Without My Walking Stick," the result is magnificent. Tom and Laurie are a delight to watch and listen to. Don't miss this chance to hear them up-close and personal!


Old Blind Dogs
Saturday, June 12, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. in Beckman Institute Auditorium (building 74 on the map)

Back by very popular demand, Old Blind Dogs returns for their third show at Caltech. This Scottish band, from Aberdeenshire, on Scotland’s northeast coast, consists of Aaron Jones (vocals, bouzouki, guitar, electric bass), founding member, Jonny Hardie (fiddle, mandolin, guitar, vocals), Fraser Stone (drums, percussion), and Ali Hutton (Border pipes, whistles and guitar). Known for their dynamic percussion, polished vocals, soaring fiddle, and stirring pipes, Old Blind Dogs this is an exciting band that will definitely have you moving in your seat. Acoustic Guitar Magazine wrote, "Old Blind Dogs have mastered the tricky art of innovating within a musical tradition while faithfully revealing its essence." The Los Angeles Times wrote, "Old Blind Dogs bring freshness and color to acoustic music steeped in centuries of Scottish folklore and history." Make plans early, as the Dogs tend to fill the hall!

Admission is $20 for adults and $5 for Caltech students and children.

Scotland's Tannahill Weavers (Roy Gullane, guitar & vocals, Phil Smillie, flute bodhran vocals, John Martin, fiddle & vocals, and Colin Melville, bagpipes) will be making their first appearance at Caltech. The band first performed in 1968, with Roy and Phil being founding members. Dougie MacLean was a member in the late 1970's. Their diverse repertoire spans the centuries with fire-driven instrumentals, topical songs, and original ballads and lullabies. Their music has that unique combination of traditional melodies, driving rhythmic accompaniment, and rich vocals, that makes their performances unforgettable. Born of a session in Paisley, Scotland and named for the town's historic weaving industry and local poet laureate Robert Tannahill, the group has made an international name for its special brand of Scottish music. Highlighted by Colin's Highland bagpipes, Roy's driving guitar and vocals, John's fiddle, and Phil's ethereal flute playing, the group has breathed new life into Scotland's vast repertoire of traditional melodies and songs. Don't miss the chance to hear the group in the intimate setting of Beckman Institute Auditorium.

Patrick Ball
AGAIN, NOT YET FINALIZED, BUT VERY CLOSE
Saturday, November 6, 2010 at 8:00 p.m. in Beckman Institute Auditorium (building 74 on the map)

Admission: TBA, with $5 for Caltech students and children.
Tickets may be obtained from the Caltech Ticket Office. For information, call (626) 395-4652.

Patrick Ball, multi-talented harpist and storyteller, presents his new show, Celtic Harp and Story, which once again combines compelling stories with incredible harp music. Here's how he describes it on his web site:

Whether in the stronghold of a Galway chieftain in the years before history began or yesterday in the snug corner of a pub in Dublin, the Irish have always delighted in storytelling. Their passion for eloquence and wordplay, their deep devotion to their mythical past, their ability to find joy and humor in a dark world, and their belief that the supernatural world could appear between one breath and the next made their stories and the telling of them unrivaled in the world of the oral tradition. And always, amidst the storytelling, there was music. Jigs, reels and haunting airs graced the spaces between the tales. And first among Irish instruments, and the most honored, was the legendary Celtic harp. With its crystalline, bell-like voice and lavish resonance, it would soothe its listeners and lead them deeper into the realms of the imagination. In Celtic Harp and Story Patrick Ball rekindles the fire and wonder of an evening of Irish storytelling. For in telling the marvelous old tales of wit and enchantment, and in playing the ancient, brass-strung harp of Ireland, he not only carries on two of the richest traditions of Celtic culture, but blends them in concert to create "a warm and magical performance."

About the Caltech Folk Music Society...

The Caltech Folk Music Society was started in 1983 by graduate students Brian Toby and Simon Davies. The intent was to bring well-known performers of acoustic music from around the country, and around the world, to play at Caltech for a reasonable price. Long before playing "unplugged" became fashionable, the CFMS began to seek out a wide range of singer-songwriters, bluegrass bands, British Isles music, blues, Nueva Cancion, guitarists, and a whole array of other musicians that did not fit well into mainstream musical categories. While some of these performers emphasize elements of "folk tradition," others are boldly innovative and truly unique. Social activism, humor, and compassion are commonly present as well.

Concerts are held in beautiful Dabney Hall and occasionally in Winnett Student Center on a monthly basis. The CFMS is an informal group of students and volunteers from the local community who arrange and publicize these concerts. We publish a bi-monthly newsletter that includes an in-depth calendar of folk music concerts, folk dancing, and storytelling events throughout Southern California.

If you are interested in learning more about the Caltech Folk Music Society or would like to receive the newsletter, drop a note to the above mailing address, or contact Rex Mayreis.
