Where’s Aubrey will perform all original music from their brand new ninth record, Hole, at a benefit concert November 11th at the Barns of Rose Hill in Berryville.  All proceeds from the concert benefit the Shenandoah Riverkeepers.

Here is a rough mix of track six on Where’s Aubrey’s new record Holes.  The record is currently in final production.

 

About: Local violinist Gary McGraw (The Bitter Liberals) and New Hampshire songwriter Rhine Singleton are Where’s Aubrey.  Where’s Aubrey will be joined at this show by Richmond multi-instrumentalist Charles Arthur (featured at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts) and Winchester jazz drummer Nick Shrenk.  Where’s Aubrey is releasing a new record at the show called Holes.  Where’s Aubrey has performed since 1985, releasing nine records and raising $17,000 for charity. Singleton’s original songs, cloaked and hooded by McGraw’s improvisation on the fiddle and mandolin, range from old-timey folk music to modern jazz.

Gary McGraw has played the violin since he was just three years old (54 years for those of you counting), and has performed at Carnegie Hall, the Kennedy Center and the Barns of Rose Hill. McGraw met Singleton at the University of Virginia and Where’s Aubrey gradually coalesced into existence in the mid-90s and began recording all original music in 2001.  Gary is also a member of The Bitter Liberals.

Rhine Singleton played piano and violin as a teen, before switching to the acoustic guitar. In his time at the University of Virginia with McGraw, Singleton started singing and was inspired to write his own music. Soon after compiling a strong repertoire of original tunes, the duo began recording under the name Where’s Aubrey.

Although McGraw and Singleton regularly write and record music, it’s rare to see a live performance by Where’s Aubrey.

30 years?  How did that happen?

Here’s what we looked like ten years ago.

Floating with Friends

So hard to get everyone together anymore.  Here is a subset of everyone.  The float was relaxing and gorgeous.  Only one canoe was tumped over.

It was a thoughtful and very peaceful float.

Excellent cocktails, interesting food, and world class jazz.  If you get a chance to catch a Sunday show in Cambridge at the Mad Monkfish, just do it.

Regina Spektor plays circles around Aimee Mann at Wolf Trap

I mean, Aimee Mann was really good.  But Regina Spektor is in a completely different league.

Still, Aimee Mann played some greats.

Like “Save Me”

But Regina was better and she played some favorites too.

Like “Fidelity”

And “Samson”

But above all, this magical “Becoming All Alone”

We had a great evening with Donnie and Geri, sneaking bourbon mint fizz cocktails into Wolf Trap.
