Laura Boosinger and Josh Goforth Friends of Music

Acclaimed traditional musicians, Laura Boosinger and Josh Goforth, will grace the stage at a
Friends of Music presentation on Sunday, February 19 at Flat Rock's St. John in the Wilderness
Church, at 4:00 p.m.  The concert is free and open to the public, with no reservations required.
Laura Boosinger has won glowing reviews wherever she appears and is blessed with an
"essence of the mountains" spirit that can take one back to the good old days when folks used
to huddle around the radio. It's said that people who haven't seen her live should prepare
themselves for a "goose pimples experience."
Josh Goforth is an outstanding musician, acclaimed fiddler, guitar picker, mandolin player and
storyteller, from Madison County, North Carolina.  Josh has already garnered a Grammy
nomination and has established himself as a great producer as well as stunning instrumentalist.
"Sing Out" magazine called Josh and Laura's latest CD, Most of All, "simple, direct and as good
as it gets."  It encompasses sweet harmonies and sympathetic accompaniments.
“It’s always a treat for us to play together in our own community.  We are looking forward to
introducing the audience to some traditional North Carolina music.  Josh and I love playing
together and we guarantee a good time,” said Ms. Boosinger.
Dewitt Tipton, founder of Friends of Music, added, “An exciting and engaging duo of highly
experienced traditional musicians. I promise you’ll have a satisfying and toe-tapping afternoon. “
