"YOUR NAME IN LIGHTS" !
This event is part of a series developed by the Susquehanna Folk Music Society and the York County Convention & Visitors Bureau, made possible by a grant from the Pennsylvania Humanities Council.
National touring artists Joe Jencks, Greg Greenway and Pat Wictor have made their mark as veteran touring singer-songwriters. But Brother Sun is no songwriter's round. The trio's harmonies, as much as their lyrics, tell what they are about: warm as a campfire, stirring as a gospel church, rousing as a call to arms. Fusing folk, Americana, blues, pop, jazz, rock, and a cappella singing, Brother Sun is an explosion of musical diversity and harmony, in the finest of male singing traditions. From three major points on the map — Chicago, Boston, and New York — Joe, Greg, and Pat celebrate the amazing power of singing together, their rich voices blending on a well-crafted foundation of guitar, slide guitar, bouzouki and piano.

Workshop: Community Singing Traditions
3:30-5:30pm
Brother Sun will lead a community sing with songs of social conscience. The long tradition of American grass-roots movements for inclusion, including the civil rights and labor struggles, inspires the music of Brother Sun. Come and sing in harmony with Brother Sun -- some of the songs will also be included in the evening concert.
