Van Orman & Helwin in Concert

Van Orman & Helwin, an acoustic music duet who perform a wide variety of traditional and modern folk songs, will appear in-concert at The Focal Point in Maplewood on Saturday, July 23. John C. Van Orman and Adam Helwin are a music team whose singular music blends tunes and texts of antique and modern soundscapes, familiar enough to be warm and welcoming, adequately exotic to be fresh and surprising. Accompanying themselves on an array of instruments, they share traditional and contemporary songs of a world populated by sailors, gamblers, working class heroines, moon goddesses, and many sorts of lovers.
