Wonder and William Smith: Acoustic-Electronic Chamber Folk + 100 Years of Guitar

Wandering troubadour Wonder and dapper BART six-stringer William Smith usher in Daylight Savings Time with two distinct flavors of guitar. Wonder makes her Poppy debut with a set of original songs and stories brought to life by vocals, acoustic guitar, ukulele, and effects pedals, while Smith’s “100 Years of Guitar” project explores the last century of acoustic and electric guitar tradition.
 
FEATURING:
Wonder – guitar, ukulele, vocals, effects
William Smith – acoustic guitar, electric guitar
 
ABOUT THE ARTISTS:
After performing internationally with Carnival Cruise Line, Wonder broke into DIY artistry in 2015 with a debut house concert winter tour, and she has been touring the U.S. almost nonstop ever since. Preferring to keep her music accessible to all listeners, Wonder remains low to the ground, making CDs and T-shirts by hand and surviving–as well as thriving–on a humbling pay-what-you-can donation model.
