We are excited to welcome Zoe & Cloyd back to the High Country along with the Transatlantic folk duo The Foreign Landers on Friday, May 31st at the Appalachian Theatre of the High Country!
The Foreign Landers are mandolinist David Benedict (Mile Twelve, Missy Raines), and Tabitha Agnew Benedict (Cup O’ Joe, Midnight Skyracer). Today Tabitha and David are carving their own path in the acoustic music world together, drawing on their unique international heritage to create something new. In the retrospective words of award-winning mandolinist Sierra Hull, “Tabitha and David simply sound like two people who are meant to make music together.”
High Country favorites, Zoe & Cloyd‘s innovative “klezgrass” music springs from the rich traditions and complementary styles of fiddler/vocalist Natalya Zoe Weinstein and multi-instrumentalist/vocalist John Cloyd Miller. Descending from a lineage of klezmer and jazz musicians, Natalya trained classically in her home state of Massachusetts before moving south in 2004. John, a twelfth-generation North Carolinian and grandson of pioneering bluegrass fiddler, Jim Shumate, is a 1st place winner of the prestigious Chris Austin Songwriting Contest and the Hazel Dickens Songwriting Contest. Based in Asheville, NC, Zoe & Cloyd delight audiences with soaring harmonies and heartfelt songwriting, seamlessly combining original bluegrass, klezmer, old-time, and folk with sincerity and zeal.
