Meeting in 2012 via a chance YouTube sighting and fueled by a once-in-a-lifetime musical chemistry and friendship, Canadian-American husband-wife Roots-Folk duo Dan Frechette and Laurel Thomsen are “prodigious players with songwriting that sets them apart.”

With soaring violin, diverse guitar styles, compelling storytelling, a dash of harmonica and humor, and unique vocal rapport, they deliver a dynamic, engaging, polished performance.

Doors at 7 pm, show at 7:30 pm.

Beer and wine will be available for purchase.

More about Dan and Laurel

Based in the mountains above Santa Cruz, California, Dan and Laurel have toured North America and Europe extensively and released five albums as a duo. Touted for being both "lyrically refreshing and musically diverse,” their original songwriting spans the range of Roots based genres, “pondering contemporary subject matter with vintage sensibility.”

Joined by bass player Dan Robbins, who "brings a fiery improvisational spirit and energy to all the projects he is involved with,” and Bruce Handloff, that rare breed of drummer who listens with the ears of a songwriter, artfully crafting percussion we can feel and groove to, the quartet flows seamlessly through genres, tempos, stories, and moods, embodying each style with virtuosic command and keeping music fans on the edge of their seats.

Enjoyment is palpable.

Welcome!


Organized by

The Henry Miller Memorial Library is a public benefit, non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization championing the literary, artistic and cultural contributions of the late writer, artist, and Big Sur resident Henry Miller. The Library tries to do as little as possible since we are in Big Sur a place very well suited for doing nothing. It turns out to be difficult however because Henry Miller is egging us on to promote the things he believes make life worth living like good conversation, freedom of thought, good food, sex and art in all its forms; old, new, weird and varied! Welcome!
