Kelly Hunt Top of the World Tour Live at Hidden Trail Featuring Sara Morgan

Kelly Hunt, daughter of an opera singer and a saxophonist, was raised in Memphis, TN amidst a motley mélange of musical influences ranging from Rachmaninov to Joni Mitchell to Mississippi John Hurt. She grew up singing in choirs, poring over poetry books, and writing her own music as a matter of course, first on piano then on 5-string banjo. After being introduced to the banjo in college while studying French and visual arts, Hunt began to develop her own improvised style of playing, combining old-time picking styles with the percussive origins of the instrument. Her debut album, Even the Sparrow, reminiscent of modern traditionalists such as Gillian Welch reveals an ineffable quality that hovers beyond the constraints of genre, à la Anais Mitchell and Patty Griffin. Over the span of a dozen songs, Hunt’s penchant for storytelling and intriguing arrangement cast a spell. Her second album, the recently released Ozark Symphony, continues her musical standard for excellence. This is an artist you do not want to miss!

Opening the show is Sara Morgan, an artist celebrated in her own right! Sara Morgan has been hailed by critics all around who throw flowers of praise Sara’s way such as Robert Leggett an LA Music Critic who said, “Sara Morgan brings a freshness to country music that hasn’t been there since the debut of Reba, Shania Twain, and Carrie Underwood.”

Sara’s album debuted at #4 on Billboard’s Heatseekers list! Sara’s praises continue with Joseph Hudak of Rolling Stone putting it simply, “Sara Morgan is the one to watch!”

This is your chance to see two artists poised to blow up to everyone else in the near future, in our eyes they’ve already arrived!
