EARLVILLE – The Earlville Opera House is pleased to present Neptune’s Car at 7 p.m. on its historic stage Saturday, November 9.
The Earlville Opera House is located at 18 East Main Street in the quaint Village of Earlville, NY 13332 and is handicap accessible.
Event representatives said based out of Massachusetts and New Hampshire, Neptune's Car, according to Maverick Magazine, has “hints of Nickel Creek and Alison Krauss … a strong musical duo whose music can stand on its own two feet.”
Their unique name comes from the true story of a clipper ship captained by Mary Patten. In 1857, despite being pregnant, caring for her sick husband, and fighting off mutiny from the first mate, Mary successfully navigated the ship, Neptune's Car, around Cape Horn to San Francisco.
After Holly Hanson wrote "Lighthouse Keeper" to help her boys with homeschool lessons, she decided they should live in Rhode Island.
Steve Hayes is the other half of this personable contemporary folk duo, contributing his own well-crafted songs, as well as some darn good guitar work.
This duo offers music in a down-to-earth style that is so good the prestigious Great American Song Contest called their "Fly Fishing the Big Hole" ". . . vivid, focused and engaging," and added, "It's a pleasure to hear songs of this caliber."
Event representatives said Steve comes from a musical family, from a grandfather who played guitar, banjo and ukulele, to his brother, a founding member of Old Crow Medicine Show. They said he is an award-winning guitar player; from his first gig at age thirteen, to his thirteen-year association with Holly, he's played all kinds of music including rock, country, jazz, funk, blues, and, of course, folk.
Holly played music all through school, then took a twenty-year hiatus to raise her kids. She started writing music for her children's lessons and "In the Blue Room" (Letters from the Road) grew out of a lesson about the constellations. After a successful open-mike appearance, she jumped back into performing. You can hear several influences in Steve and Holly's music, from vivid story songs like John Prine's, to intricate guitar work inspired by Tony Rice.
Whether they're playing an intimate house concert or on the main stage at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, you'll love their welcoming presence and song variety. They've shared the stage with Archie Fisher, Bill Staines, David Mallett, and many others.
Their songs have charted on the Folk-DJ list and “The 45th Parallel” was number twenty on the CD chart; quite impressive when you realize DJs receive hundreds of CDs a year. Public radio's popular Car Talk has featured their songs on four episodes.
