Featured Musicians: Cliff Perry & Laurel Bliss
Creating timeless music in the Pacific Northwest for over two decades, Cliff Perry and Laurel Bliss are a dynamic duo not to be missed. Check them out this Sunday, 7 p.m. at the Tractor Tavern for the Roots & Branches Vol.2: Live from the 2010 Festival CD Release Party!
Cliff and Laurel began as a singing duo in the late 80’s and are now recognized veterans in the bluegrass and old-time music communities. Together they formed the heart and soul of Southfork, a legendary Northwest bluegrass band in Washington and up and down the West Coast.
Respected by their peers and beloved by their fans, Cliff and Laurel always deliver a wonderful collection of old-time country duets. When listening to them, you can tell they are greatly influenced by the Carter Family, however, they’ve also internalized and taken their own approach to the material. Old-time country music encompasses a myriad of styles and Perry and Bliss opt for a composed, straightforward approach that, like the Carters’ music, suggests an earlier era.
