More Barn Concerts proudly presents Martha Bassett on Tuesday, April 19 at The Barn at Reynolda Village.
Martha Bassett’s caramel-toned alto sounds right at home in music of many varieties; from Americana to jazz, folk to country gospel, she always sounds exactly like herself. As a singer, guitarist, and songwriter, Martha’s emotionally honest performances make people feel as if she is singing directly to them.
A native of West Virginia, Martha has made a home for herself in North Carolina’s Piedmont Triad. She has performed at MerleFest, the Eastern Music Festival, the Shaker Hills Grassroots Festival, and concert venues throughout the region, as well as touring nationally. Her bands have been as eclectic as her tastes, combining talented players from classical, jazz, folk, and rock traditions. She has taken great delight in mentoring young musicians, many of whom have filtered through her band before moving off to begin their own projects. Each iteration of her band has reflected Martha’s musical interests at the time. Common threads throughout her career include vim and vigor in her singing and her collaborations with some of the strongest talent in North Carolina.
The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. This will be a seated general admission show with limited reserved table seating. Tickets are $30 in advance and $35 at the door. Reserved tables (four seats) are $160.
