Check out Les Shelleys on Daytrotter!
The Athenaeum A List (our membership group for young professionals) presents an evening of music by Les Shelleys. Les Shelleys are an acoustic guitar/vocal duo from Los Angeles, consisting of folk singer Tom Brosseau and his singing partner Angela Correa, better known as the indie-pop singer/songwriter Correatown. Tom Brosseau has been featured on NPR's Weekend Edition Sunday and Prairie Home Companion. Les Shelleys self-titled debut album together is a collection of tracks taken from a vast body of recorded works—beautiful, harmony-heavy voice and guitar arrangements of American standards and folk traditionals from various points of the last century.
“a charming meander through Guthrie, Dylan and vintage pop”After the concert, guests are invited to take a peek at Kathleen Marshall's Main Gallery exhibition: Still in Paris, have their portrait sketched by bohemian Niles Fairman and enjoy left-bank themed refreshments. We look forward to seeing you there!
- The Guardian UK, Hidden Gems of 2010“Their sweet, quiet songs conjure the same lovely, swoony magic as watching a kiss in a 1940s movie—you know, when onscreen seduction meant something quite different and rather lovely.”
