Melissa Carper and Theo Lawrence barely knew each other when they started singing songs together in the fall of 2023. Little introduction was needed to get down to action (get down to business or get into the action) because what these two were supposed (intended or meant?) to do together went without saying : songs needed to be written, harmonies had to be sung and an album must be made.

This visionary trio is back in Asheville by popular demand to deliver another round of virtuosic performance with its signature humor and insight. Be sure to get your tickets early for this audience favorite, consistently praised for their masterful sensitivity and nuance, ultra-refined musicianship, tight ensemble work and musical intelligence.
