Mary Chapin Carpenter and Shawn Colvin

I haven't posted in a while but this is worth knowing about. I was fortunate enough to go hear this concert the other night in Calgary in an old church. It was outstanding. Just the two singers and their guitars. Their interaction with one another and the audience was great. If you get a chance, and like this music, I don't think you will be disappointed. Here is a link to the tour.

Yes, Mofimadness, i saw this show in my area as well, very very good. I am sorry to have missed Emmylou, Rodney and Richard this time around.

I saw their show last Thursday in Portland. The most intimate show I have ever seen. Like being in their living room. I expected the excellent music, what was not expected was the candid insights into their lives and relationship with one another. It was a show like no other. The show being acoustic without band support probably helped to distill it even further.

It's too bad the tour is so short, but perhaps after they get some other obligations taken care of they can pick it up again. Highly recommended.

Saw the show in Blackfoot, Id. 2.5 hrs of fantastic entertainment. Great acoustic show. Their history together was shared through their music and storytelling. Remarkable at their craft.
