Arts For The Schools presents Gaelynn Lea, the winner of the 2016 NPR Tiny Desk Concert competition. The performance is at 7 p.m. Friday, April 7, in Bar One at the Olympic House at Squaw Valley. Out-performing more than 6,100 other entries, Gaelynn’s beautiful lyrics and violin captured the hearts and ears of all of her judges. Gaelynn combines popular folk and rock sounds with traditional Celtic and American fiddle to produce a sound all her own. As a sufferer of Brittle Bones Disease, Gaelynn uses her music and its success as a platform to advocate for people with disabilities and to promote positive social change. Come out to see this Star-on-the-Rise and support not just her haunting music, but also her cause.
