Everyone knows the rule is that
you are supposed to be quiet in
libraries. But the Hull and Hawarden
Public Libraries are suspending
that rule for a night.
They are going to be hosting free concerts
for all who would like to attend.
The folk duo Hungrytown will be
performing at both venues. They will
first be performing in Hull on Monday,
Aug. 1 at 6:30 p.m. and Hawarden on
Wednesday, Aug. 3, at 7 p.m.
Matt Hoehamer, the director of the
Hull Public Library, noted that this
isn’t the first time that they’ve suspended
the quiet in the library rule.
“Hungrytown is a folk music duo
and we’ve done a couple of music
programs in the past year. We’ve had
some really good turnouts for those,”
Hoehamer said. “Since we had such a
good response to those types of programs,
we were looking to host some
more music performances.”
He received an email from the band
announcing that they would be in the
area.
“I listened to some samples of their
songs and I, myself, enjoy folk music
and based on the response from the
people who have come to the performances,
I thought that Hungrytown
would be a band that people would
enjoy,” Hoehamer said.
Hungrytown is composed of Rebecca
Hall and Ken Anderson. They
were introduced to folk music when
a friend died and left Hall her collection
of folk albums and a guitar. Hall
went on to write lyrics and songs for
two solo albums, “Sings!” and “Sunday
Afternoon.” Both of those initial
albums were produced by Anderson.
In 2003, the two decided to quit
their jobs and move to Vermont to
pursue music as a full-time job.
They’ve been touring ever since. They
have released three albums together
including; “Hungrytown,” “Any Forgotten
Thing,” and “Further West.”
They tour more than half of the
year and have spent time in North
America, Europe and New Zealand.
If you are hungry for some fun music,
then make sure to head to Hull or
Hawarden to hear Hungrytown. F
