See you tonight at Covenant to see the Kipsies! (fb)

Join The Kipsies for a Festival Benefit Concert this Friday, May 23, at Covenant Presbyterian Church! We'll be gathering this Friday evening at Covenant Presbyterian Church, on Candelaria, west of Eubank, for the versatile and creative Albuquerque folk band the Kipsies. Doors open at 6:30, and the event will begin at 7 p.m, with an Anything Goes jam hosted by the Albuquerque Folk Festival! A gathering of long-time friends and collaborators, the Kipsies formed favoring a new direction after stopping their previous group, Breaking Blue. The band makes modern music on traditional instruments that have been gathered from different musical traditions in the world, such as the cajon from Peru, the harmonium from India, and clawhammer banjo style originating in Africa. The Kipsies concert follows in this series the successful and enthusiastic concert on April 23 at the church by Strange Holler. This is a new the effort by Randy Martin, outreach chairman, to produce one outreach concert a month. #thingstodoinabq #newmexicomusic #albuquerquefolkfest #familyfriendly #livemusic #folkmusic #groupjam (fb)
