BETHEL – The acoustic folk music of Anni Clark will be featured at 4 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 28, on the Common as the Bethel Bandstand Concerts series wraps up its summer offerings.

With thousands of gigs and miles, and six solo albums under her belt, this Maine native’s passion for communication through music continues to build a widespread and loyal audience.

Her infectious style might be described as “original folk, pop and blues with a dash of Maine hume-ah.”

Clark’s many accolades include both Female Artist of the Year and Folk Artist of the Year in Jam Music Magazine’s Readers’ Pix Awards. She was also a two-time finalist in the well-known New Folk Songwriters’ Competition at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas and was invited to be one of three judges in this event.

She has collaborated with other well-known songwriters, such as hake Russell and Dana Cooper.

She has shared stages from Maine to Texas with the likes of Shawn Colvin, Richie Havens, Patty Larkin, Leo Kottke and Cheryl Wheeler.

Clark has also teamed up with Maine songwriters Dan Merrill and Lynn Deeves, forming the trio known as Under the Song Tree, named Folk Artist of the Year by Jam Music Magazine.

Bethel Bandstand Concerts begin at 4 p.m. and run 60 to 90 minutes. The rain site is Bingham Auditorium on Church Street at Gould Academy.
