Following a series of shows on the road, Cincinnati-based Folk duo Gypsy
and the Tree returns home for a live performance Saturday evening at
The Underground (1140 Smiley Ave., Forest Park). Comprised of
songwriters Kelly Miller and Noah Smith (founder of Live Love Studios in
Amelia), Gypsy and the Tree exhibits hallmarks of traditional American
Folk music, strumming humble, chord-driven tunes that come to life with
lyrics of love and free spirits, embellished by Appalachian-style vocal
harmonies that ring with a soothing sense of open-road freedom.
Their
songs are illuminated with tales of broken hearts and lovers out to
change the world, shifting between moody choruses and verses that canter
like the strides of a hitchhiker wandering down the side of an empty
highway. Alongside Gypsy and the Tree, acoustic artists Marissa
Rhinehart, Joe Plante and Kile Yurchak are on the bill for this evening
of warm-hearted Folk anthems. Doors open at 7 p.m. $8 admission. Find

Gypsy and the Tree plays The Underground 8 p.m. Saturday Jan. 8.
