Eliot Street Soirée presents "Ladies of Autumn, Women of Winter"
Eliot Street Soirée presents "Ladies of Autumn, Women of Winter", featuring Haley Hewitt, harpist and singer-songwriter, Molly Pinto Madigan, singer-songwriter, and Janna Maria Fröhlich, singer-songwriter with harp and guitar.

Haley Hewitt (www.haleyhewitt.com)--Hewitt is one of the most exciting, innovative, and gifted harp players of the up-and-coming generation. Playing Scottish music, but also interested in traditional music from around the world, Haley has been breaking boundaries and pushing the limits of what is possible for the instrument.

She is interested in producing and promoting new compositions for the harp, recently releasing an EP-length recording of her collaboration project with composer Michael O'Sullivan, The Valentia Suite. She is currently working on a recording project of her own newly composed material and looking forward to a full-length album release.

Haley has always loved to play the harp, since her start at the age of 9. She took to the instrument and its music, and competed extensively throughout her early years. At the age of 12, she began studying the classical pedal harp as well. After several years of performing with professional, community and school orchestras and smaller ensembles, working with composers and performing new work, she attended the Hartt School of Music on full scholarship and obtained a Bachelor in Music Degree in Harp in 2011.

Haley moved to Scotland in September 2011 to study lever harp as a Masters Degree student in the Scottish Music Department at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland under the tutelage of Scottish harp phenomenon Corrina Hewat. She graduated at the top of her class in 2013, and returned to the U.S. to pursue her career in playing, teaching, and writing music on the harp.

Upon her return, she founded the Celtic Harp department at Neighborhood Music School and the Connecticut Harp Circle, which has since developed a faithful following. In September 2013, she was crowned USA National Scottish Harp Champion by the Scottish Harp Society of America, sponsored by the Clan Currie Society. In July 2014 Haley moved to Boston, MA to grow and develop as a traditional musician. It is her dream to form a program for the advanced study of the lever harp in the United States.

Molly Pinto Madigan (www.mollypintomadigan.com)--Hailed for her angelic voice and haunting compositions, Molly Pinto Madigan won first place in WUMB's Boston Folk Festival Songwriting Contest and was named "Artist of the Year" at Salem State University, her alma mater.  Since her debut as the lead singer for the teen bluegrass band Jaded Mandolin, Madigan has submerged herself in the dark, luscious world of ballads, drawn to their magic, and her original songs echo with the whisperings of the American and European traditional music.

Madigan has performed extensively around the Boston area at venues like Club Passim, The Boston Celtic Music Festival, First Night Boston, Cantab Lounge, notloB Parlor Concerts, Campfire Festival, The Lizard Lounge, and The Bull Run, sharing the stage with some big names in folk music, including Claire Lynch, Scott Alarik, Bridget Fitzgerald (of Cherish the Ladies), Robbie O'Connell (of The Clancy Brothers), Susan Cattaneo, Tracy Grammer, and John Carter Cash. Molly has been featured on WUMB's Local Folk, WATD's Almost Famous, as well as WBRS's Off the Beaten Path.  She recently won first place in the Family Folk Chorale Songwriting Contest, and was awarded a prestigious Passim Iguana Music Fund for her album, "Wildwood Bride."

Janna Maria Fröhlich (www.soundcloud.com/janhapharp and www.jannamariahappy.wordpress.com)--is half of the duo HeartSoulVoice (usually appearing with Joy Grimes, fiddle as well).  Janna performs with voice, harp, guitar, and keyboard. She performs a varied repertoire of folk, folk-inspired and contemporary songs and tunes, many of which are Janna's originals. Janna (pronounced "Yanna") is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who draws her material from the stories and resilience of her own life and from the archetypes of experience that we all share. Her evocative soaring voice expresses passion and transformation. Her training includes a master's in medieval and renaissance music and another in expressive therapy and she is a board-certified music therapist.  Janna appeared with HeartSoulVoice at the Jamaica Plain PorchFest 2016 and Roslindale PorchFest 2016, and solo in the West Roxbury Fall Festival 2016.  Janna is also coordinator of the Eliot Street Soirée.
