SUMMARY:Rachel Sumner & Traveling Light (opener TBA)
DESCRIPTION:Doors 7pm / Show 7:30 pm                        $17 (incl fees) advance // $20 day of show \nBuy tickets here: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/harmoniehall/2381870 \n  \n \nRachel Sumner & Traveling Light (website | spotify | instagram ) is an acoustic folk trio bringing Sumner’s original songs to life. Blending bluegrass\, folk\, and close three-part harmony\, the trio pairs virtuosic musicianship with fearless storytelling\, creating concerts that are as entertaining as they are thought-provoking. \nSumner writes because she’s working something out—or because she’s found a story she can’t stop thinking about. Her songs wander through labor history\, folklore\, the American West\, and the lives of women history has too often overlooked. Again and again\, they hold the past up like a mirror\, asking what it still has to teach us today. She believes curiosity leads to empathy\, and that stories remain one of our oldest ways of changing how we see one another. Her songs are written to meet listeners where they are: some simply enjoy a great tune; others leave eager to crack open an encyclopedia. Both feel like success. \nRachel Sumner & Traveling Light won the 2025 Telluride Bluegrass Band Contest\, and Sumner is also a winner of the Kerrville New Folk Competition. She has performed at the Library of Congress\, where five of her original songs are preserved in the American Folklife Center archives\, and her songwriting has been recognized by the John Lennon Songwriting Contest. \nHer song “Radium Girls (Curie Eleison)” has been streamed hundreds of thousands of times\, tattooed on arms\, sung in audition rooms\, taught in classrooms\, and quietly passed from one curious listener to another. Like much of Sumner’s work\, it doesn’t simply tell a forgotten story—it asks why we forgot it in the first place\, and who benefits from that forgetting. \nTouring nationally\, Rachel Sumner & Traveling Light has appeared everywhere from Telluride Bluegrass Festival\, Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival\, and Earl Scruggs Music Festival to beloved listening rooms like Caffè Lena\, Club Passim\, and Sweetwater Music Hall. Whether on a festival stage or in a backyard house concert\, the trio brings the same joyful musicianship\, effortless chemistry\, and spirit of discovery to every room. Audiences leave laughing\, singing\, and carrying the stories with them long after the drive home.
