Dar Williams Concert
Dar Williams will sing a concert at Seabury Center, an intimate space of only 175 seats with exceptional acoustics. A favorite among the adult-alternative set, Dar Williams has a unique voice that can dance from lyrical and ethereal to playful and gritty. Her lyrics are funny, sharp, lively and fresh, yet they include thoughtful insight into life, the environment, gender and other complex issues. Williams is a literate singer-songwriter with a genuine gift as a storyteller. She weaves word-poems with a catchy beat and a catchy tune. She has been described as a synthesis of the Indigo Girls, Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez; in fact, Joan Baez has performed with Dar Williams, as has Mary Chapin Carpenter, Shawn Colvin and Pete Seeger. Light snacks, desserts and beverages will be for sale before, during and after the show.
