Newport Live Presents: Cary Morin Duo

Indigenous Voices Series
Friday, May 12, 2023

7:30—9 pm
$35 General Admission

Described as “one of the best acoustic pickers on the scene today,” Cary Morin brings together the great musical traditions of America like no other. With deft fingerstyle guitar and vocals that alternately convey melodic elation and gritty world-weariness, Morin crafts an inimitable style often characterized as roots-infused Native Americana with hints of bluegrass, folk, blues, and rock. He has performed at renowned venues across the globe, including the Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center, and is the recipient of numerous awards and accolades.

Along with his life partner, Celeste Di Iorio, together they form the Cary Morin Duo.  Celeste has her own history in the world of performance, having been involved in dance, theater, and music for many years.  She is a vocalist and, as she would say, “a strummer on guitar.” Celeste has played and sung with Cary for over 11 years.
