This season’s concert will be a fun-loving intergenerational twist on the fabulously singable tunes of the Traveling Wilburys! Come lend your voice to the rich sound of Family Folk Chorale’s varied voices blended joyfully in harmony.

“With such an array of rich harmonies among friends and palette of solo voices–a full spectrum from Roy Orbison’s stratospheric crooning to the grit of Dylan and Petty–it is easy to hear the Traveling Wilburys music as a natural, stylistic match for what the Family Folk Chorale does.  These are great songs for a heart-full and energizing afternoon of singing, dancing, enjoyment!”  

–Chris Eastburn, Family Folk Chorale Artistic Director

Many will sing along easily to the well-known “Handle Me with Care,” and likely hum and sing the infectious “End of the Line (It’s All Right)” for days afterwards!  We’ll move with the kids as they perform the ultra fun “Wilbury Twist.”  Emotions will move as well, with moments of profound depth such as during George Harrison’s “Heading for the Light,” further brightening the overall sunny fun of the program.  

The set includes some other gems: Orbison and Petty’s “You Got It,” Harrison’s tribute to John Lennon, “All Those Years Ago” (sung by the Wisdom group), and “Got My Mind Set on You” from the Harrison-Lynne recording.
