A free public concert featuring CARRIE NEWCOMER

Highland Community College Student/Conference Center, H-201 | 2998 West Pearl City Road, Freeport, IL
We are pleased to once again sponsor a free concert featuring the fabulous folksinger Carrie Newcomer with pianist Gary Walters.
Carrie is a songwriter, recording artist, performer and educator. She has been described as a “soaring songstress” by Billboard and a “prairie mystic” by the Boston Globe. The Austin Statesman described her as having “a voice as rich as Godiva chocolate” and Rolling Stone once said, she “asks all the right questions.” Most simply put, the Dallas Morning News said, “she’s the kind of artist whose music makes you stop, think and then say, ‘that is so true.’”
The Student Conference Center, Building H, is on the northwest corner of the Freeport campus. Parking is directly north of the building entrance in lots A (East and West); the building is fully accessible.
