The Honey Dewdrops Perform at The Wells Public Library

Virginia Duo Sings Sweet Harmonies and Heartfelt Songs

Native Virginia married duo, the Honey Dewdrops, will perform Monday March 21st at the Wells County Public Library in Bluffton, IN at 6:30pm.

The Dewdrops are Laura Wortman and Kagey Parrish, an award-winning duet that makes music and a living on the road, playing over 140 shows per year traveling from coast to coast and north and south. The Honey Dewdrops logged 35,000 miles in 2010 touring nationally and playing festivals, folk clubs, arts centers, churches, and house concerts.

On stage, the Dewdrops are compelling performers and storytellers with a repertoire of original folk songs that bend an ear to American traditional and roots music. They sing harmonies that bring to mind steep mountains and deep hollows, and accompany each other with guitar, banjo, and mandolin.
“Our songs are about the human experience and we try to write and perform in that spirit – it’s an expression of life, songs that people can see themselves in,” says Wortman.

Wortman and Parrish gained national recognition with award winning performances on NPR’s A Prairie Home Companion (2008) and Mountain Stage’s New Song Contest (2009). Their new record, These Old Roots, was the #1 album on the Folk DJ Charts for October and November 2010.

The Dewdrops will appear at the Wells County Public Library for an evening of duet singing featuring original songs and their signature harmonies.
