Performance Date

Friday, May 25

In her first Kerrville appearance since the untimely passing of her musical partner Dave Carter, we welcome Tracy with open arms and open hearts.  We will always miss Dave, but we're happy that Tracy is continuing to perform.

Grammer's brave response to her own loss was to embrace the musical community's collective loss. In the following weeks, she anchored musical tributes at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, the Philadelphia Folk Festival, and the official Portland memorial service. With a composure informed by emotional depth, Grammer lifted her lone voice with grace and power -- ensuring Carter's legacy and her own solo journey in music.

Just days after Carter passed away, Grammer foretold her musical future in a letter she posted on their web site: "We need to keep this music alive, it was always my mission that the world hear and know the poetry and vision and wonderful mystical magic of David Carter. This path is broad and long; I hope you will stay the course with me."
