This dynamic duo brings their soulful vocals, awe-inspiring talents as multi-instrumentalists, and warm, wry personalities to a newly created evening that celebrates the songs of James Taylor and Joni Mitchell. They will be performing favorite hits including “You’ve Got a Friend,” “Carolina in My Mind,” “Your Smiling Face,” “Both Sides Now,” “Circle Game,” “California,” and “You Turn Me On I’m a Radio.” Trevor’s mellow voice and Sylvie’s pure tones come together to produce achingly beautiful harmonies. Trevor and Sylvie are known and loved by Rubicon audiences for their starring roles in Lonesome Traveler (also Off-Broadway), I Dig Rock and Roll Music, the American premiere of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, King Lear, and numerous other shows and concerts. 

“Trevor and Sylvie’s music is honest and timeless, hand-clapping and heart-tugging. From the unquenchable thirst of a Dust Bowl era love song to the gritty anonymity of a big-city dive bar, Trevor and Sylvie pull at the strings of familiar stories, following them to their hearts.” – divideandconquer.com  

ABOUT TREVOR & SYLVIE:

Rooted in the folk tradition, Trevor Wheetman and Sylvie Davidson create a musical sound that combines the poetic storytelling of songwriting greats like Joni Mitchell and James Taylor with the down-to-earth approachability and fun of Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers. Their debut album of original music “Time is Free” has been called “a breakout album” of “authentic, effective, and gorgeously rendered Americana” (Kitsap Sun).  Lonesomehighway.com calls the CD, “Engaging and impressive in equal measure . . . Definitely a recommended release that continues to reveal new treasures on repeated listening.” 

On stage, Trevor and Sylvie bring an irreverent sense of humor to match and temper their sweetness.  A duo in life as well as in music, they spend their free time cooking and eating with family, finding treasures at thrift stores, loving on their toddler and dog, and making goofy videos which you can find (along with their music) on their website, www.trevorandsylvie.com.
