Description

Join us for an evening of music with Chris Bathgate - an established singer/songwriter with a strong local following throughout Southeast Michigan. His sound is rooted in bluegrass and folk, and is known for using a wide range of techniques, instruments and supporting musicians during live shows.

Chris, along with a live accompanying band, will be performing songs from his latest album The Significance of Peaches. For this performance, he’ll be utilizing an antique parlor organ (aka Pump Organ), which is the primary base and inspiration for his latest album.

Bathgate describes his first album in five years, The Significance of Peaches as "an experiment in thematic writing and recording with limitations … the significance of peaches is not necessarily the thread or some keystone idea. It is like a loose fishing net that I can cast into my life and see what I harvest."
