The sanctuary in a Downers Grove church gave a spiritual tone to a folk music show on May 17. The Potter’s Field, en route to a music festival in Kerrville, TX, where the duo is set to perform two songs selected as finalists in the competition beginning May 23, strummed and sang its brand of original, covering-the-classics and interpretive folk music in front of a backdrop of bricks, a crucifix and the other furnishings of a religious altar slid to the side.
The Two Way Street Coffee House, 1047 Curtiss St., which hosts live folk music performances and other events throughout the year, was displaced due to the heavy rain and flooding that occurred on April 18. The church project is temporarily holding shows in the sanctuary while the basement is repaired from flood damage.
