Red Molly combines the forces of three songwriters with unique character and
style, creating a show that is larger than the sum of its parts. Known for their
3-part harmony, their songs and arrangements lay bare a love of vocal blend.
The band weaves together threads of American music—from country and blues
to folk and bluegrass. Their innovative instrumentation is suited for roots-rock
and heartfelt ballads alike, and the alchemy of their personalities onstage
draws even back-row listeners into a sense of intimacy. Red Molly is simply a
joy to experience.

Singing spine-tingling high notes, Abbie Gardner is a dobro player and
improviser from a musical family. A consummate performer, her songs
and performance have the punch of rhythm and blues. Playing guitar and
tambourine, Laurie MacAllister draws inspiration from classic folk and singer-
songwriters. Her voice stretches octaves, warm and romantic one moment,
playful and subversive the next. Molly Venter, also on guitar and tambourine,
has a smoky voice that is unforgettable, and a moody approach to song-
smithing.

Since 2004, Red Molly has inspired countless female trios. In 2017, they
reinvented themselves as a high-octane five-piece band. They remain a
dominant force on the Americana/folk scene due in part to their laughter and
spontaneity onstage. Upright bassist, Craig Akin, and percussionist and electric
guitarist, Eben Pariser, fill out the sound, giving the show a broad range of
musical options—from complex and har8d-hitting to sparse and delicate.

By the time she arrived in Tucson in 1992, Heather was already a seasoned
performer having played violin since the age of 9. But it was her time with
legendary blues man, Sam Taylor, that helped transform this New York City
transplant into a true musical force of nature. This budding apprenticeship with
Sam in the 1990s, eventually grew into a partnership of sorts, and forever
changed the arc of her career and her relationship with the blues.

By 1996, Heather had formed her own Lil’ Mama Band, blowing away the local
crowds at her club dates and performances. In 1997, she took the band to New
York, where they still play 3 months a year. In 2000, she was inducted into the
Arizona Blues Hall of Fame.

Currently, Heather tours internationally and has released 5 albums of original
songs and where her strong vocals are beginning to rival her considerable
violin chops. She has recorded on over 200 albums of various artists in Arizona
and around the world and she continues to thrill audiences with her unique and
soulful style on the violin, sultry vocals, and original interpretations of her
beloved blues.

The Lil’ Mama Band includes Alvin Blaine on Guitar, Larry Lee Lerma, bass
and Dani Ponce on drums. All three are remarkable players in their own right

and are much sought after for recording sessions and live dates alike. Heather

will also be joined on stage by frequent collaborator and former Tucson Folk

Fest headliner Sabra Faulk, as well as Lane Harman, lead singer for the band
Reverie, and also known for her many years fronting Tucson’s legendary band

Street Pajama. 9

THE Winner will perform Saturday

Ten finalists (chosen from a field that typically is more than 40)
will each perform two original songs for the Folk Festival
audience and a panel of judges that includes fellow songwriters.
Contestants will be evaluated on originality & uniqueness, song
structure & arrangement, and talent & stage presence.

1. Jessica Shumate is a 25-year-old singer/songwriter originally from Phoenix.
Her original music has influences of folk, pop, and indie. She enjoys writing
about all sorts of topics, from how much she loves local kombucha -- to her
Dad's urologist. Jessica's day job is in a classroom for children with special
needs.

2. Mark Holdaway is a talented singer, songwriter, kalimba player and multi-
instrumentalist from Tucson, Arizona.

3. Leslie Latour is a folk/pop singer/songwriter, born in NYC, lived and worked
in Maine, and now living in both Maine and Arizona. She splits her time writing
and co-writing with her husband Larry Latour, writing and performing songs in
the traditional folk/pop spirit, channeling such performer/writers as Pete

4-leggeds in the Verde Valley.

soothing baritone or his slick guitar work, but be warned—with Jerry, it’s all
about the stories.

6. Nick and Luke - Nicholas Horner and Lucas Chohany have a musical
kinship unlike any other. With a love for traditional music and honest
songwriting presented with the spontaneity of jazz and the reckless abandon of
rock music, Nick and Luke have cultivated a musical language all their own.
While playing a combination of Americana-rooted original music, jazz standards
and the bluegrass/old-time liturgy, their performances ebb and flow to create a
playful blend of the visceral and the virtuosic.

the year. He's been writing songs for many years and has performed with
music and life partner Carol Teal at folk festivals, coffee houses and house
concerts. David is equally at home on claw-hammer banjo, fingerstyle guitar

active musician in the region for 18 years. He is an alum of Pueblo High School
and a 2006 graduate of the University of Arizona’s creative writing program.

Singer-songwriter David Hawkins found Pittsburgh by way of Chicago, New Orleans,
Tulsa, and Detroit, and he has picked up musical flavors wherever he has lived. His

songs are both tough and gentle, born in a place where flesh and spirit meet and
where one’s soul is on the line. They are songs of love, hope, death, loss, a splash of
whiskey, and an echo of the divine. He has released three CDs: Driven to the Strings,
Hello Mr. Death & Other Love Songs, and Everything That Brought You Here.
