Overview
This concert is part of the Indy Folk Series 25th anniversary season.
When two master storytellers like Joe Jencks and Deidre McCalla share a stage, it’s more than a concert – it’s a revelatory experience. With voices that carry generations of truth and melodies that stir the soul, this pairing is a rare and radiant convergence of artistry and authenticity.
Each artist brings a distinct voice, yet together they weave a tapestry of song that bridges cultures, communities, and traditions in the most heartfelt way.
Joe Jencks, celebrated for his lush baritone and emotionally resonant songwriting, draws on his Irish heritage, classical training, and blue-collar roots to craft music that is at once grounded and transcendent. A veteran of stages from Lincoln Center to folk festivals across North America, Joe’s music speaks to both the personal and the political – with a compassion that invites listeners to feel deeply and think freely.
Deidre McCalla, with her fearless presence and soul-stirring lyrics, brings a legacy of lyrical truth-telling and cultural celebration. Her award-winning album Endless Grace solidified her place as a force in contemporary folk, and her ability to channel joy and resilience into song has inspired generations of music lovers.
Together, Joe and Deidre promise an unforgettable evening of song, story, and shared humanity – the kind of night that lingers long after the last note fades.
