The Green Guitar Folk House Presents:
The Black Feathers
Saturday, August 24, 2024 – Doors open 6:30 p.m.
The Black Feathers write songs that are both modern and ancient, weaving traditional influences thoroughly into fresh creations.
Made up of Ray Hughes and Sian Chandler, they first became aware of the magic between them while collaborating on several musical projects. The Black Feathers became life partners in 2012.
Americana, Folk, and Acoustic Indie Rock sensibilities coexist comfortably in their musical world. Hughes’ guitar work buoys the kind of harmonies often only heard in family bands. Their music draws listeners, but it is the stage chemistry keeps them riveted.
Having already built up a loyal following in the UK, The Black Feathers have been spreading their wings across the United States. They have performed at Philadelphia Folk Festival, Kate Wolf Music Festival, and AmericanaFest, and have also been awarded official showcases at the International, North East Regional and Far-West Folk Alliance conferences.

Where is the Green Guitar Folk House?
Green Guitar Folk House events are sponsored by Shawnee Mission Unitarian Universalist Church and held in its sanctuary, next to the railroad tracks in old downtown Lenexa, Kansas.
If you are looking for the “church” look for a school! SMUUCh is in a converted elementary school (yay recycling!) The sanctuary — you might notice — is in a beautiful converted, former school gymnasium.
Although our venue is sponsored by SMUUCh, it is not a church event.
The series is open to the public. Youth are welcome to attend. These are all-ages shows
