Full Details and Tickets at: https://sfmsfolk.org/concerts/RachelSumner_TravelingLight.htmlSusquehanna Folk is proud to welcome one of the most exciting up and coming songwriters in bluegrass to the Fort Hunter Barn!
Rachel Sumner (formerly of Twisted Pine) and her new bandmates take folk far beyond the conventional, with lyric-forward songwriting, snaking chord progressions, acrobatic fiddle and bass, and songs both sweet and biting.
Fresh off a first place win at the 2023 Thomas Point Beach Bluegrass Festival band competition, this trio has been captivating audiences throughout the northeast. Bandmates Kat Wallace (fiddle) and Mike Siegel (upright bass) join singer and songwriter Rachel Sumner to take folk music beyond its known boundaries.
Sumner spent her early career on the bluegrass circuit, singing and writing with the genre-bending roots group Twisted Pine. Since setting out on her own, Sumner’s songs have been critically acclaimed: winning the 2021 John Lennon Award in the folk category for her song “Radium Girls (Curie Eleison)”; earning a spot in the Kerrville New Folk Competition; and being chosen four consecutive years as one of the top Massachusetts entries in NPR’s Tiny Desk Competition. Rachel Sumner & Traveling Light released their debut LP in the summer of 2022.
