Van Orman and Helwin

July 23, 2022 @ 8:00 pm - 11:00 pm

$15 – $20

The music of John C. Van Orman & Adam Helwin blends textures and texts of antique and modern soundscapes, familiar enough to be warm and welcoming, adequately exotic to be fresh and surprising. Two singers accompanying themselves on guitars, harmonium, concertina, hurdy-gurdy, and other instruments, they share traditional and contemporary songs of a world populated by cowboys, sailors, hoboes, and many sorts of lovers.

Their most recent album was largely inspired by the Driftless Area of Wisconsin, Van Orman & Helwin’s eponymous CD celebrates the local and the traditional. Featuring music gathered by Dodgeville song collector Helene Stratman-Thomas, the album highlights songs and tunes which resonate with the hills, streams, and big skies of our home.
