Evie Ladin Trio at the Corralitos Cultural Center

Evie Ladin brings an evening of contemporary clawhammer banjo, singing, and clogging to the Corralitos Cultural Center this Friday night. 

The polyrhythmic heat of Evie Ladin‘s clawhammer banjo, resonant voice, real stories and rhythmic dance – have been heard from A Prairie Home Companion to Celtic Connections, Lincoln Center to Hardly Strictly Bluegrass. Known as a driving force behind San Francisco’s Stairwell Sisters, Evie’s solo debut Float Downstream (2010), co-produced by Mike Marshall and Keith Terry, was quickly followed by Evie Ladin Band (2012), nominated for Americana Album of the Year by the Independent Music Awards.

You don’t often hear words like “traditional,” and “authentic” paired with “innovative” and “unique,” but Evie Ladin has brought them together brilliantly in the self-titled, debut album of the Evie Ladin Band, and the result is truly a high point in new old-time music. 

Doors open at 7:00 pm. Show starts at 7:30 pm. Suggested donation $10-$20. Reservations: corralitosmusic@gmail.com or call 831-588-9354.
