He’ll play 3 sets from 1-4.
Lewis’ signature sound combines the precision of the acoustic guitar with the sustained elegance of the violin. He performs on stage by the live-looping of guitar and violin overdubs, allowing him to move in unpredictable directions, often spontaneously, to reprise or eclipse the music from his internationally known 21 album catalog that amasses over 100,000 digital streams a year. As a folk-singer-songwriter, he writes original ballads and anthems that are transcended from old time and folk rock sensibilities, filled with spiritual optimism and confessional intimacy and introspection.
The concert is also designed as a meditational experience, to absorb the quietude of his music, along with songs of those he has honored in song.
Reprising the successful series of 4 solo guitarists on one bill, Spencer will perform his 1/2 hour set with 4 of his own guitars to illustrate the many styles and directions his music takes him. He’ll perform pieces designed to highlight his inimitable cross-flatpicking style, his finger-picking with and without steel finger-picks, open-tunings and the improvisational pieces that are the foundation of his 22 official instrumental album releases on his Quartz Recordings and Woodstone Mountain labels.
