Before adding their harmonies to the choir of other bluegrass-folk performers at the 2019 Byron Bay Bluesfest, the three-woman act I’m With Her will share their new album with Sydneysiders. Four years since their first impromptu collaboration, these three independently successful American artists will perform their 2018 debut album See You Around at Sydney’s City Recital Hall.
See You Around is storytelling music that is raw and intimate, played on guitar, fiddle, banjo and mandolin with seamlessly blended vocals – they seem, at times, like a one singer with three voices. The women behind the strings, Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, and Aoife O’Donovan, each bring their own tone and experience to the tightly-knit group, and they have a bundle of awards among them: Watkins from her time spent fiddling for band Nickel Creek, while O’Donovan performed on the critically acclaimed Goat Rodeo Sessions, and Jarosz taking home a Grammy for best folk album.
See them combine all their strengths on April 16, 2019, as they celebrate the 30th anniversary of Bluesfest.
