The December 9th Local Brew Coffeehouse brings The Atwater-Donnelly Trio back to our stage. The East Bay's own Aubrey Atwater and Elwood Donnelly are a highly acclaimed husband and wife duo, well-known up and down the eastern seaboard for their entertaining performances of traditional American and Celtic folk songs, a capella pieces, old-time gospel songs, dance tunes, and original works. Their musical talents are showcased on a host of instruments including guitar, Appalachian mountain dulcimer, mandolin, tin whistle, harmonica, banjo, bones, spoons, limberjacks, and other surprises including Appalachian clog dancing and French Canadian footwork. When Cathy Clasper-Torch adds her magic to the mix on stage, the group becomes The Atwater-Donnelly Trio. Cathy's talents have mesmerized audiences at venues throughout New England and beyond including a long history of appearances at Local Brew Coffeehouses and Local Brew Fiddle 'n Folk Festivals. In addition to Atwater-Donnelly, she has performed with Shelley Katsh, Kim Trusty, Mary King, Ed Sweeney, Mark Cutler, Dan Lanier, Kevin Fallon, and Saddle Up the Chicken, just to name a few. Many people recognized her from her contributions on fiddle, cello, Chinese erhu and vocals to the world music group, The Gnomes.
