SUMMARY:2022 Deep Roots Summer Series - Tricia Walker & Danny Abraham @ Ellis Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Tricia Walker is a singer and songwriter whose songs are steeped in the passion\, pain and grace of the American South. Born and raised in Mississippi\, Tricia has become one of the clearest voices of her own time and place. Her music has been recorded by Faith Hill\, Patty Loveless and Alison Krauss\, whose performance of Tricia’s Looking in the Eyes of Love earned a GRAMMY® award. A recording artist herself\, Tricia’s CD\, “The Heart of Dixie\,” thoughtfully captures the songwriter’s view of the South with well-placed lyrics and music reflecting her folk\, R & B and storytelling influences. \n“Culture is a precious\, living thing\,” Tricia says. “It has to be nurtured if it’s going to survive. Any artist or creative thinker has a responsibility to help chronicle his or her own time\, place and people. That’s the surest way to keep a culture from disappearing.” \nTricia’s instrumental skills earned her a spot backing Grand Ole Opry star Connie Smith\, with whom she played for six years. She also toured extensively with Shania Twain and Paul Overstreet as a keyboard player and vocalist. Along with Pam Tillis\, Karen Staley and Ashley Cleveland\, Tricia was a founding member of “Women in the Round\,” one of the most celebrated foursomes at Nashville’s prestigious Bluebird Café. \nTricia returned to her native Mississippi in 2006 to become director of the Delta Music Institute\, an entertainment industry studies program at her alma mater\, Delta State University. After retiring from DSU in the summer of 2019\, she was awarded the title of Director Emeritus and have been developing new musical and creative projects such as the Deep Roots music initiative for Big Front Porch Productions. \nDanny Abraham\, well-known Cleveland men’s clothier\, started playing piano when he was six years old and played in bands and as a solo artist throughout his youth. “I played when I was at Ole Miss with a group that went all over recruiting students and was able to share the stage with celebrities like Bob Hope and others\,” says Abraham. When I returned to Cleveland\, to attend Delta State\, I joined the campus music group Renaissance\, and we literally toured all over the world. Even after I opened my store\, Abraham’s\, I continued to play with people whenever and wherever I could.” \nDanny’s first CD\, Don’t Worry ‘Bout Me\, was a labor of love and faith. The gospel collection of all original compositions was produced by the legendary Gordon Mote and recorded in Nashville. Abraham said he was blessed to be surrounded by a number of talented and well-known musicians on his CD. From Cleveland/Delta business legend to gospel performer\, Danny Abraham’s life is proof that with faith and hard work\, anything and everything is possible.
