EDITH

Tuesday, October 2nd, 12:15-1:15 PM, Coburn Gallery

Free and open to the public, no tickets required.

Local musicians Sarah Hope and Hilary Studebaker will play their individual brand of Indy Folk Pop power ballads for a lunchtime audience in Colorado College’s Coburn Gallery.  Recently nominated for a Pikes Peak Arts Council award, EDITH features acoustic guitar, violin, banjo, and delicious vocal harmonies. 

 

Surrounded by the current exhibit of paintings by Portland, Oregon artist Laura Ross-Paul, EDITH will perform a set that responds to the artwork.

 

Sarah Hope as a teenage poet got wrapped up in the early nineties

Minneapolis Indy music scene, playing in venues such as the Fine Line,

400 Bar and First Avenue’s 7th Street Entry. She formed the band Dog Tooth Violet with her sister Alex Hope, a musician in NYC's West Village. In Colorado Sarah has played in bands the Pretty Pleasers, and the Goods, where she began collaborating with Hilary Studebaker.

 

Hilary Studebaker is a classically trained musician who has been playing violin for twenty-six years. Her delicious vocal harmonies and banjo have been described as Celtic-Appalachian influenced and at times mysteriously dark. She has been playing and recording in folk and country bands for 15 years.
