STRANGEBYRDS

Little Tree House Concert Series. 6:30 p.m. Saturday, July 18, littletreeacoustic.com.

Cari Minor and Ray Smith have flown together as Strangebyrds since 2010. They’ve developed a following with songs built on poetic lyrics, penetrating harmonies and approachable personas. Their brand of “blue collar folk,” as they like to call it, weaves together the powerful acoustic traditions of folk-Americana rock and blues. Donations for virtual concert seats are $12 and up on a sliding scale (so pay what you can). Little Tree asks that you donate early — instructions on how to join the concert will be provided after donation. Following the concert will be a Zoom meeting to discuss the show and socialize.
