Mark Mandeville & Raianne Richards and Green Heron at Stage 33 Live
BELLOWS FALLS — Mark Mandeville & Raianne Richards’ unmistakable vocal harmonies, poetic lyrics, and down-to-earth personae are soul-soothing, even when they’re singing about difficult things. Their songs poetically reflect the experiences of factory workers, teachers, community organizers, and natives of post-industrial mill towns. Accompanying themselves on guitar, harmonica, ukulele, penny whistle, electric bass, and most uniquely clarinet, their live performances are musically captivating and spiritually uplifting, carefully balanced between serious and humorous. These prolific and hardworking artists have contributed over seventeen albums and tour consistently throughout the US and Canada.
Each summer since 2010, Mandeville & Richards have organized the Massachusetts Walking Tour where they hike the roads and trails of the Commonwealth, more than 100 miles in less than two weeks, in support of the arts in local communities along the way. Each evening they stop over in another Massachusetts town and put on a free concert along with local performers and fellow artists.
The music of Green Heron stretches across the folk landscape… old-time, folk, bluegrass, country, and blues are all represented as they bring the back porch to the stage. Betsy Heron on fiddle, banjo and vocals, and Scott Heron on guitar, banjo and vocals weave contemporary with traditional in their high energy performances. Green Heron has shared stages with The Del McCoury Band, The Seldom Scene, The Way Down Wanderers, and Them Coulee Boys in prestigious venues.
Betsy, brought up playing country music with her family’s band, still plays alongside her three sisters in The Green Sisters. Scott spent several years in metal bands touring much of the country before discovering folk and bluegrass. Despite their very different backgrounds in music, the pair draws from their roots when writing and performing and have found a common love for Americana and folk music.
