THE YAYAS
A celebrated "New Wave woman folk singer," Patty Larkin is one of the finest contemporary singer-songwriter-musicians of a generation. Her first studio effort won Best Folk Album and Best Folk Artist at the prestigious Boston Music Awards. She won another with her next album, proving she is not the type to rest on her laurels.
Over her 10 CD history, this favorite among critics has honed a reputation as a "musician's musician," working with some of the brightest talents in American music, and performing in such celebrated venues as the Philadelphia Folk Festival, Newport Folk Festival, Falcon Ridge, Kennedy Center and Boston's Symphony Hall.
An ever evolving artist, Patty has continued to search for new colors from a fresh palate for her latest release, Watch the Sky, in which she achieves a personal best with a raw, intimate, gorgeous sound that is all her own.
Her provocative, eclectic & compelling music, along with her often spontaneously hilarious performances make this a show you shouldn't miss.
More about Patty Larkin
It's difficult to put a label on The YaYas' music ... modern folk is a good start, but their songs can range in feel from folk-pop to country-tinged to singer-songwriter-with-groove. What remains constant are well-crafted songs with deceptively simple lyrics about people you feel you might know, people who view themselves and the world with both honesty and compassion.
Brought together by fate while performing with an independent theater company in the late-'90s, these three soon realized there was a special chemistry in their quirky blend of personalities and musical influences. "Singer Catherine Miles' vocal style is simultaneously voluptuous and ethereal, drawing the listener into the full emotion of the stories she sings. Guitarist Jay Mafale and keyboard player Paul Silverman deftly weave their instruments together in a richness that belies the fact that there are only two instruments in the band. Their original material showcases their considerable talent, exquisite melodies and intelligent lyrics." -Amy Tuttle, Folk Music Society of Huntington.
"This modern folk trio has a gorgeous sound – from Catherine's beautiful lead vocals to Jay and Paul's stunning accompaniment... a joy to work with these guys and help them realize their musical vision." Ben Wisch - Producer, Engineer, Mixer.
