Ian Fitzgerald & Rachel Sumner

Ian Fitzgerald & Rachel Sumner

If songwriters were paid by the word, Ian Fitzgerald would be set for life. He’s happy instead to craft songs as well as he can and share them with appreciative audiences. Ian has been fortunate to find those audiences in performances across the country, even if they’re sometimes one or two people at a time. If you enjoy the music of Bob Dylan, Townes Van Zandt, or Gillian Welch, you may just find something you’ll connect with in Ian’s songs.

Like a masterful painting or a well-crafted film, Boston-based songwriter Rachel Sumner transports audiences into the world of the songs she sings. Borrowing from the storytelling traditions of Appalachian and British Isle folk songs, Sumner's haunting melodies, unexpected harmonies, and lyrical prowess refresh the genre altogether, leaving listeners spellbound.
