The historic Newtown Theatre will present its second annual “Artistry of the Acoustic Guitar” concert featuring internationally known guitarists Tim Farrell and Dirk Quinn at 8 p.m. Thursday, May 9.
The one-night-only concert will feature Farrell and Quinn playing acoustic versions of rock, pop, traditional, and original music on a variety of guitars. They will also share stories about the instruments, the music, and their experiences.
Farrell, a Council Rock graduate, is one of only four guitarists to be honored as one of the 100 Greatest Acoustic Guitarists who have also won Best Instrumental in the International Acoustic Music Awards. He has entertained audiences internationally.
Quinn is the guitarist for the Philadelphia-based jazz/funk band that bears his name. After more than a decade of performing throughout the U.S. and Canada, the band has developed a unique and sincere style – one that appeals to a wide variety of music listeners ranging from beard-stroking jazz aficionados to jam-band hippies.
Tickets are available at TheNewtownTheatre.com for $32 per person or $27 for theater members. Any remaining tickets will be sold for $42 at the door on the night of the show (if available). All seating is general admission.
The theater is located at 120 N. State St. in Newtown Borough.
