Antje Duvekot Opens For Richard Shindell At TCAN 7/10
Antje Duvekot will open for Richard Shindell at TCAN on Friday night, July 10 at 8:00pm. Antje has been nominated for Best Female Vocalist in the Boston Phoenix 2009 Music Poll.
Revered by critics and fans alike, Richard Shindell's songwriting is truly eclectic, ranging from lighthearted ballads and adulterous love songs, to dirges and diatribes that skillfully skewer politics, prejudice, war and religion. He has a unique ability to morph into the soul of the many and varied personalities he casts as narrators in certain songs--songs that are veritable novellas framed in haunting acoustic melodies, sometimes including cryptic, revelations through the eyes of a woman.
An expatriate New Yorker now living in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Richard Shindell is a meticulous craftsman of song whose six studio albums and one live recording have been revered by critics and fans alike.
Innovative, original and occasionally spiritual, Shindell's songs weave tales that interchangeably champion the downtrodden, exalt the disaffected or wax empathetic to those lost to society's fringes.
From his first record, Sparrow's Point (1992) to the newest album Vuelta (2004), Shindell has demonstrated a penchant for songwriting at once passionate and profound.
In 1998, Shindell formed the acoustic trio Cry Cry Cry with Dar Williams and Lucy Kaplansky, and most recently produced the newest CD by rising star Antje Duvekot. Of this collaboration, Richard is predictably modest: " With a voice like hers, and songs as good as these, a producer (especially a first-time producer!) just tries to get out of the way, to do no harm, and to let the artist speak for herself."
Admission is $28 members and $25 Students/Seniors $1 discount.
