Music '08 The concert tour of Leeward Rail sets sail.....


Accomplished local musician Keith Allen has teamed up with yours truly, Capt. Kev, to perform the music that is interwoven into "The Freedom Plant". Not your father's folk music, the nautical concert by Leeward Rail will take you out on the Grand Banks, put you on the deck of a derelict freighter and leave you at the port of new understanding. At times ethereal, toe-tapping, contemporary and traditional, but never ordinary.
Leeward Rail. (Nautically speaking, it's pronounced "loo-ward".)
The multi-talented Keith also peforms as a solo artist for weddings and social gatherings, and, along with fiddler and mandolinist Mike Forney, plays in the acclaimed Waterfront Park String Band. You can contact him at kallen429@yahoo.com

Kev;
What an incredible night! Thank you so much for including me. Playing with you and Keith was one of the most memorable gigs I have done. The music is so moving, and your words and stories touch the heart.
