Bristol’s Stone Church Coffee House at the First Congregational Church welcomes for the first time, Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem, on January 25th. Harmony, rhythm, indelible songs – these are the hallmarks of Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem, the New England based folk quartet now in its 20th year. From the Newport Folk Festival to California World Music Festival and beyond, this band’s steadfast brew of wit, camaraderie, and musicality leaves audiences everywhere humming and hopeful, spirits renewed.
In the lineage of string bands who blur the boundaries of American roots music, Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem have always been standard-bearers, with a particular knack for pairing words and music. From bluegrass barnstormers to sultry swing, old-time gospel to bluesy folk-rock, they consistently turn in lush arrangements with “stylish, unexpected choices” (Acoustic Guitar).
Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem have six albums on Signature Sounds; and three special programs in addition to their general repertoire show. Wintersong explores joy and reflection at the roots of Christmas and winter solstice celebrations (a party, with poetry!). American Spiritual is a varied program of songs that uplift, connect, and carry the human spirit. The band's CD Ranky Tanky (2010) won a Parents’ Choice Foundation Gold Award.
Bristol’s Stone Coffee House is an affordable, family-oriented, handicap-accessible musical venue. Doors open at 6:45PM and the show starts at 7:30PM. Seating is limited and reservations are recommended. Light refreshments will be available. Tickets are $25.00 per person (students are half price; children 5 and under are free).
