Description:
Community Change Collaborative at Virginia Tech presents an Acoustic Performance with Elizabeth Laprelle on Thursday, September 5, 2019 at the Brush Mountain Reading Room inside the Squires Student Center at Virginia Tech.

Enjoy Appalachian Ballads and Old-Time Songs with Elizabeth Laprelle.

Elizabeth LaPrelle has been performing Appalachian ballads and old-time songs since she was 11. Her magnificent voice, her respect for the songs, and her authentic mountain sound and style brought her to the attention of first Ginny Hawker and then Sheila Kay Adams.

Raised in Rural Retreat, Virginia, Elizabeth attended old time fiddlers’ conventions and sang harmonies with her family, who taught her traditional singing styles and encouraged her to sing their own favorite American folk music. She received her undergraduate degree from the College of William and Mary with a major in Southern Appalachian Traditional Performance and now tours the United States regularly both performing and teaching.

Elizabeth is a part of the duo Anna and Elizabeth.
