James Gilchrist & Julie Sherwood perform as the acoustic duo "AWEN." Their shows feature original folk/rock, with tight vocal harmonies, acoustic guitar and percussion combined with Broadway favorites, popular standards, and romantic duets (backed by tracks or piano) chosen to thrill theater-goers. "AWEN" is a Welsh word meaning "inspiration from spirit" - but they are not a Celtic band (although they love to play foot-stomping Irish tunes now and again!) James' lyrics are inspired by nature and the mystical, with songs about fishing towns on rocky coasts, ghostly visions of lovers gone, winds that bring with them memories of celebrations past, and the strong feelings that surface when the heart finds - or loses - love.
