Folk festival hosts breakout artist

The Sisters Folk Festival presents breakout artist Christopher Paul Stelling in concert at The Belfry on Sunday, October 25, at 7 p.m.

"This guy is really exceptional," says SFF board member Jim Cornelius. "Everywhere we turn we hear "You've gotta book this guy!' We're really glad we could make a show at The Belfry happen."

Christopher Paul Stelling isn't the first musician to take the stage with just an old guitar and the stomp of his foot. What sets him apart is an imagination that is completely his own, yielding stories that feel like parables that you slowly realize have never before been told.

His imagination also lives in his fingertips as he traverses from country blues to flamenco to claw-hammer banjo, all on his trusted "Brownie," an old nylon-stringed guitar that's been traveling the globe with him for years.

Advance tickets are $15 for adults at www.

sistersfolkfestival.org ($20 at the door) and $10 for youth and students. In addition to the show, 'Sup Dog will host a fundraising dinner, starting at 5:30 p.m. The dinner is a full-plate meal featuring 'Sup Dog's famous sausages. Proceeds from the meal will go to the Sisters Folk Festival Americana Project.

The Belfry is located at 302 E. Main Ave.
