She is a leading figure of folk music from back in the 80’s and continues to be the brilliant vocalist she has been for decades. Accompanying her was her guitarist, Gerry Leonard.Last on stage was Martha Redbone http://www.martharedbone.com and her band. Redbone is an American blues and soul singer fused with elements of traditional Native American music. Her soulful voice always blows me away. She was joined by David Amram for part of her set.
