RACHEL SUMNER & TRAVELING LIGHT
February 15th | 7pm | $15 advance, $20 door | Art’s Cafe
Fresh off a first place win at the 2023 Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Festival band competition, Rachel Sumner & Traveling Light have been captivating audiences throughout the northeast. With songs as sweet and biting as the nectar and venom in her voice, Sumner’s lyric-forward writing and chord progressions demand something far beyond folk conventions. Though Sumner has roots in both the bluegrass and classical worlds, this is true-blue singer-songwriter folk through and through, too: “achingly clear, and wide open to the world, with twang and tenderness enough to carry us through the fire of an unusually difficult year” (Cover Lay Down).
