Backstage with New Long Road

The Cain Park Backstage Series Presents: New Long Road

New Long Road is a unique band, a folk-rock-jazz-classical group, consisting of five music-business veterans combining their talents: David Budin (vocals and guitar), Celia Hollander Lewis (vocals, Celtic harp, 12-string guitar, and banjo), Robin Stratton (vocals and ukulele), Gayle Klaber (cello) and Sara Lambert (flute). The group performs songs you’ve never heard, including both originals and songs you haven’t heard in a very long-time, all performed in ways you’ve never heard them done, with David Budin providing humor and music history between songs. www.newlongroad.com

New Long Road members have performed onstage with, or opened for, an array of world-famous artists, including Linda Ronstadt, Graham Nash, Peter Yarrow, Jeff Beck, Jefferson Starship, Poco, Flying Burrito Brothers, Jimi Hendrix, and others. Gayle and Sara, specifically, play or have played with the Cleveland Pops Orchestra, the Firelands Symphony Orchestra, the Erie Philharmonic, Arcadia Orchestra, Great Lakes Theater Festival, the Broadway Series at Playhouse Square, the Erie Waters flute ensemble, Heavenly Winds, and the San Luis Obispo Symphony and Redlands Orchestra.
