Ryan Alfred and Katherine Byrnes will play a show at Hotel Congress’ at 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 23. Americana singer-songwriter opens the show.
Tuesday’s concert is something of a belated makeup for the spring 2021 Hotel Congress Plaza CD release show for their second album, “An Endless Blue,†which was canceled due to rain. The pair had hoped to do the CD release show months earlier in late 2020, but a COVID outbreak convinced them to hold off.
Alfred said after 3½ years, “we’re super excited†to be back on stage. Their band on Tuesday will include pianist Angelo Versace, who teaches jazz studies at the University of ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥, and Colin McIllrath on bass.
