Mark Erelli + His String Quintet Friday in Newport
A rare and breathtaking performance, Mark Erelli brings his string quintet to Newport for one of only three concerts this year in support of his new album, "Live In Rockport." This is also the first-ever Newport Live show at the Great Friends Meeting House, making it a truly special evening of music and storytelling.
The show begins at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, May 2. Doors open at 6:30 p.m.
Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Mark Erelli, known for his distinctive blend of folk, rock, and Americana, joins forces with a world-class string quintet to reimagine his celebrated songs. The result? A cinematic and breathtakingly intimate performance that never fails to leave audiences spellbound.
Erelli’s string quintet is helmed by double bassist Zachariah Hickman (Ray Lamontagne, Josh Ritter) and Annie Bartlett on viola (ROSIN, Hank Wonder). The reinterpretations of songs from throughout his catalogue present him in an expansive, visionary light, allowing Erelli’s voice to shine like never before.
