Next Stage Arts & Twilight Music present:
Dar Williams has been called “one of America’s very best singer-songwriters” by The New Yorker. Known as much for her staunch progressive ideals as her raw acoustic energy, Williams has been captivating audiences with her sheer elegance and honesty in her folk-pop songwriting since the ’90s. Williams’ growth as an individual over her two-decade-long career has gone hand-in-hand with her evolution as an artist, touring along the way with such distinguished peers as Joan Baez, Patty Griffin, Ani DiFranco, Loudon Wainwright III and Shawn Colvin among others. “Dar Williams, one of America’s very best singer-songwriters… Her songs are beautiful. Some are like finely crafted short stories. They are, variously, devastatingly moving, tenderly funny, subtle without being in any way inaccessible, and utterly fresh—not a cliche or a clunker in her entire songbook.” -The New Yorker
Already being hailed as “the next Woody Guthrie,” DC resident Crys Matthews is among the brightest stars of the new generation of social justice music-makers. A powerful lyricist whose songs of compassionate dissent reflect her lived experience as what she lightheartedly calls “the poster-child for intersectionality,” she and her new, hope-fueled, love-filled social justice album “Changemakers” are made for these times.

ROOTS MUSIC FROM THE NORTHEAST OF BRAZIL
Rob Curto’s Forró for All is a band dedicated to Forró, the accordion-driven party music of Brazil, and the legacy of its primary innovator, the great Luiz Gonzaga.
Rob Curto is an artist deeply passionate and knowledgeable about the accordion, and its relation to the American experience. He is a master of forró – dance music that is the background for Northeastern Brazilian social life. Originally from New York City, Rob is widely considered Forró’s main ambassador in the United States. He is one of the principle musicians responsible for introducing North American audiences to Northeastern Brazilian music, and was an original member of the band Forró in the Dark, along with Mauro Refosco (David Byrne, Red Hot Chili Peppers) and Smokey Hormel (Beck).
Forró For All evokes the experience of a Saturday night at a club or backyard somewhere deep in the northeastern state of Pernambuco, home of Gonzaga. The band thrills audiences with an experience both uplifting and enlightening. San Francisco Bay Guardian declares that the band is “America’s finest purveyors of the Forró sound.”
