All Day
The Ladles have returned to Springville as artists-in-residence at Springville Center for the Arts. As an emerging group based out of New York City, bandmates Caroline Kuhn, Katie Martucci and Lucia Pontoniere performed at Springville Center for the Arts in January of this year.
Cat Johnson from Goodtimes SC describes them as “Masters of three-part harmony, The Ladles…blend swing, old-time, folk and more to create a handcrafted, down-home sound that brings to mind nights spent making music on the back porch while fireflies flit about and good friends catch-up. The sound is spacious and lovely. With instrumentation that impresses, harmonies that inspire and an ability to capture the richness of the folk tradition without getting stuck in the past, The Ladles is a quiet stand out of the roots genre.”
Over the course of their three-week stay, The Ladles will create songs for a new album using the Carol Mongerson Theater as their backdrop. In addition to writing, rehearsing and recording music, they will also be performing live with a very limited audience capacity in socially distant settings, joining a ukulele jam session hosted by Springville Center for the Arts, as well as creating the compact disc cases for their new album in a printmaking workshop at Springville Center for the Arts.
