Danny Schmidt & Carrie Elkin Danny Schmidt and Carrie Elkin "Danny Schmidt is a force of nature: a blue moon, a hundred-year flood, an avalanche of a singer-songwriter. His songs are a flood of poetry, mythology, folk wisdom, and surprise." -- Sing Out! Magazine "I have never seen a performer so in love with the act of singing. That's the gospel truth, and from what I've subsequently learned I'm not the only one to believe or state that. Onstage Elkin was simply a force of nature. … ” -- Maverick Magazine It's a special treat when Danny Schmidt and Carrie Elkin, who normally tour separately and solo, get to share the stage together. Schmidt is best known for his riveting poetic lyrics, which have drawn favorable comparisons to Leonard Cohen and Townes Van Zandt for their depth and complexity. And gypsy spirit Carrie Elkin is best known for her incredibly soulful and dynamic vocals, which have drawn favorable comparisons to Patty Griffin at her most powerful, and Nanci Griffith at her most intimate. dannyschmidt.com, carrieelkin.com Songs To Check Out: "Company of Friends,” "Little White Angels," "Stained Glass" (Schmidt); "Landeth by Sea," "Jesse Likes Birds," "Lift up the Anchor" (Elkin) For Fans Of: Mark Erelli, Townes Van Zandt (Schmidt); Corinne West, Marybeth D’Amico (Elkin) We Recommend The Nields
