Mar 10 Moors & McCumber LIVE at KAFM Radio
James Moors and Kort McCumber are an acoustic duo specializing in Americana, folk, melody, and stories. They craft beautiful story songs that walk the line between rootsy folk and melodic pop. While both men are successful solo songwriters, Moors being an official recipient of the McKnight Foundation Emerging Artist Grant and McCumber having won the Flat Rock Festival Songwriting Competition, when they come together their sound becomes larger than life. Moors and McCumber create that rare chemistry that happens when two gifted singer- songwriters and multi-instrumentalists perfectly complement each other’s strengths, a modern day version of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door and can be purchased at kafmradio.org. Doors open at 7pm show starts at 7:30.
