AAAC Concert to be Friday

The Albion Area Arts Council will present the internationally acclaimed musical duo, Acoustic Eidolon, Friday, April 15, at 7 p.m. in the  Zion Lutheran Church in Albion.

Comprised of Joe Scott on double-necked guitar or “gitjo” and his wife, Hannah Alkire on cello, Colorado-based Acoustic Eidolon has performed in major venues around the world, including St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, Spandau Theatre in Berlin and the Mackay Theatre in Australia.

Dubbed “world music for the soul,” Acoustic Eidolon blends Celtic, Folk, World and Latin music.  Respected music publication Dirty Linen has described Acoustic Eidolon as “a sumptuous musical feast” while Good Life Magazine said they perform “some of the most powerful and intriguing music on the scene today.”

Admission is $12.50 for adults and $5.00 for students with members admitted free of charge.  Anyone having questions may contact Paul or Lori Hosford at 402-395-6727 or at arts2008@frontiernet.net.
