When strings play off each other and combine in an extremely natural complex fashion, they pull you into a peaceful/spiritual vortex. During those brief moments of stirring, spiraling musical exploration as you temporarily shed the weight of daily responsibilities and concerns, giving way to a beauty that eases the tension consuming your undivided attention. When the duo Jesse Sparhawk and Eric Carbonara masterfully combine forces the results are on that level, as their playing seems to gracefully weave around each other cultivating musical landscapes into works of art. Tonight Folkadelphia presents another fine evening at Studio 34, where this pair of accomplished musicians plans to unveil their latest piece. The evening also includes Bad Braids, the moniker Megan Biscieglia, whose talk on folk scratches beyond the traditional surface highlighting her captivating, soul-searching vocals amid an array of instrumentation. Bad Braids sophomore album the follow-up to 2010’s Arrow and Orb, is scheduled for release via Hot Magie this spring. Studio 34, 4522 Baltimore Ave., 8pm, $10, All Ages – Michael Colavita
