Description
Lanesboro Arts presents the final concert for Rhythms on the Root 2021 series, folk songwriter Pieta Brown on Friday, September 10th at 6:00 pm in Gateway Park.
The daughter of two preacher’s kids, Pieta Brown’s early upbringing in Iowa exposed her to traditional and rural folk music through her father, Greg Brown, the now beloved Midwestern folk singer. Later, Pieta drew on and expanded these influences and began writing poems and composing instrumental songs on piano. Pieta started experimenting with the banjo and a 1930's Maybell arch-top guitar and never looked back. BBC had the following to say about Pieta: "Self-styled poetess, folk goddess and country waif, Pieta's music resonates with a seductive simplicity and lyrical grace."
