Red June to Play Black Mountain Center for the Arts

Post Date: 02.01.2011

Red June, the Asheville-based acoustic Americana trio, recently released their debut album titled Remember Me Well. Funded in part by a grant from the Asheville Area Arts Council, the album leads listeners on an emotional journey, highlighted by the band’s thoughtful and innovative songwriting, heartfelt vocals, tasteful instrumental work and soaring harmonies.

Red June is made up of three talented, veteran musicians, singers, and songwriters: Will Straughan (formerly of the Emma Gibbs Band), John Cloyd Miller (formerly of Lo-Fi Breakdown) and Natalya Weinstein (of Polecat Creek and Lo-Fi Breakdown). The Red June sound is as versatile as the musicians themselves -- they touch on bluegrass, roots rock, old-time, and traditional country music.

They have been invited to perform at the International Folk Alliance Conference in Memphis before returning home for an intimate show at the Black Mountain Center for the Arts, located at 225 W. State Street, at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, February 26. There are no ticket reservations, and admission is a suggested donation at the door of $10.
