There are no bad seats at the Birchmere and it's a perfect venue to listen to folk music. I didn't know much about Dar Williams before going but thoroughly enjoyed the concert. She has a great voice, wonderful band, lovely connection with the audience, and her set list was varied and interesting.
Love the Birchmere and being part of it's history. GA was easy , we got there about 2 hours before show time and found excellent seating 1.5 before opening act, I bet every seat in the house is excellent. The food and drink service was outstanding. The whole experience was a wonderful treat.
First show of the tour and it sounded great. Heather the warm up act was great. Dar was fantastic as always. The only downside was someone brought a baby to the show which was very distracting for everyone around
One of the best singer songwriters of the contemporary folk scene. Great storytelling with Song
Dar Williams live is as beautiful and heartfelt as her music. I would go to her show every weekend if it was an option.
Thank you so much, Dar, for another wonderful evening of your storytelling.
You really have to be sitting in the center of the room for good sound when a sing/songwriter like Dar plays. I talked to several friends who sat in different places. Center front and sides were so boomy we couldn’t hear the words. Those who sat in the middle of the room and right in front of the sound booth said that the sound was off at first, but was fine later.
First time at The Delmar Hall and really enjoyed it. Very intimate setting which is great to see an artist like Dar Williams. Concert was good, Dar was very entertaining and her songwriting is absolutely beautiful. Great evening!
Dar is not only a brilliant singer-songwriter, but has a great sense of humor and rapport with the audience as well. Both her albums and her performances are not to be missed!
great performance, nice atmosphere and affordable,
Dar is an exceptional musician, lyricist and story teller. I have seen her several times, but what made this concert so special is I went with my 23 year old son who also loves her music.
Wonderful interaction with the audience and story telling combined with songs we treasure
Excellent song mix. Not a big fan of the Duck Room because of distracting sounds, like water running through pipes in the ceiling,
Dar Williams was amazing! However, she was not given enough stage time!! I was quite disappointed with how very short the show was! She only played for about an hour! But in the hour she did perform, she was WONDERFUL!! I love her!!
Dar was in very fine voice and form. Witty and generous and wise as ever in her on-stage talk, and her voice was lush and lilting. Very fine accompanying musicians - keyboardist and electric guitarist. The material from this latest album really blooms live. Dar is just one of my absolute favorites. Had never seen Jill Sobule, the opening act, perform, and I really liked her. The venue - Somerville Theater - is great: good acoustics, friendly atmosphere, nice size, decent selection of beers on tap. We sat in the balcony, and I had to either lean forward or to the side to see the performers.
Had a good time. Enjoyable banter. Wonderful songs. I teared up more than once.
Not to be missed. If you have a chance to see Dar Williams perform, you need to go, no question about it.
GREAT...awesome show. She really gives back story on her songs in funny, engaging show.
Dar paired her amazing music with the wonderful stories behind some of the songs she played. This was as much like a lovely talk with an old friend as it was a concert.
Had a blast, as always! Dar was a smidge chatty but it was right after her birthday (we sang her happy birthday) and her new release. I'd already purchased the album but missed hearing more of her older stuff. The Aladdin is always fun, good vibe. Last saw Dar there in 2010. Only downside- really drunk, loud, and obnoxious women in one of the back rows.
