Williams College hosts Free summer concert: Sean Rowe performs 6pm, THU, AUG 3 on Prez. Lawn, 863 Main St.

Sean Rowe is an American singer-songwriter, musician, recording artist and forager. The concert will be held outdoors on the President’s House lawn. Guests are welcome to bring picnics, blankets, and lawn chairs; however, tents or large umbrellas are discouraged. Ice cream will be available for purchase. In the event of rain, concerts will be held at Goodrich Hall, 863 Main Street (near the eyeballs and WCMA).

Rowe has a powerful sound with an emotional conviction that demands attention. NPR’s All Songs Considered says of Rowe’s vocals, “He can just crush granite with that voice. It’s so powerful.” The Wall Street Journal proclaimed, “Mr. Rowe’s ringing baritone is as timeless as his approach, recalling the ecstatic intensity of late-’60s Van Morrison and stark subtlety of late-era Johnny Cash.” Rowe has graced the stage of Mountain Jam, Wilco’s Solid Sound Festival as well as opening for Robert Plant and the Alabama Shakes. Both an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and having his song, “To Leave Something Behind” featured in the film “The Accountant” have expanded his voice to an international audience.
