'First Friday for Folk Music'
The 140th edition of "First Friday for Folk Music," the Savannah Folk Music Society's monthly gathering of the folksy and those so inclined, will feature Tracy Rice, Four Shillings Short and Michael Amburgey. Rice is the Canadian daughter of a Barbadian mother and Scottish father. After moving to Nashville from Ontario, she has released several albums, highlighting her considerable skills as a guitarist and songwriter. Four Shillings Short - the husband and wife team of Aodh Og O Tuama and Christy Martin - perform everything from traditional Irish songs to Indian ragas and medieval instrumentals. They play everything from sitars to banjos to dulcimers and mandolins. Michael Amburgey has long been a First Friday favorite, popular both for his songwriting skill and understated humor.
