COUNTRY ROADS: Carter Lou McElroy / Will Proper
Carter Lou McElroy and Will Proper are bringing their rootsy Greene County charm over the Rip Van Winkle for an evening of stripped-down bluegrass favorites! In partnership with @unquietupstate, “Country Roads” aims to speak to the part of you that wants to drive the long way home with the windows down.. that prefers creeks to swimming pools & savors a stump by the campfire at the end of a long day. Grab a friend or three and join us as we bring both sides of the river together to celebrate the ruff and tumble of our Hudson Valley Home!”
Carter Lou McElroy makes music for building fires by – sounds both wild and tranquil, worlds both real and imagined, stories that hang around like smoke in your hair. Her songwriting is rooted in meaning-making, with intimate and complex narratives revealed through the folk traditions of her southern upbringing and the boundary-bending prose of her New York home. The result is music that’s both referential and deeply personal – the heart of Patsy Cline with the grit of Patti Smith, with a raw, heady spirit all her own.
Will Proper is a country singer/songwriter, based out of Athens, NY. Born & bred on a small Greene County farm, his style of music matches the life he leads. Inspired by bluegrass, traditional country and the blues.. Will polishes the boot of an old genre, with the kind of shine that lasts a long time.
