We’re delighted to have Ty Burkhardt return to our tropical space here in Free Union. He’ll be treating us to his amazing acoustic sounds. Ty performs solo, though if you close your eyes you’ll think there are more than one musician and more than one instrument. Sunday, June 30, from 2 to 5pm. No cover. Open to all.
Bio:
Ty Burkhardt is an instrumental fingerstyle guitarist from Richmond, VA who creates the sound of a full band by playing all the parts simultaneously on his acoustic guitar. He first started playing jazz guitar in his middle school jazz band, and eventually found himself playing at the college level. In high school, he started experimenting with the fingerstyle acoustic guitar, and began to hit, tap, and slap the guitar while playing to create the drumbeat of the song. He began playing at restaurants starting in his sophomore year of high school, and later, he found himself playing all over Virginia. He is currently a jazz student at UVA and Miller Arts Scholar who enjoys tennis and volleyball. His inspirations include Andy McKee, Mike Dawes, Calum Graham, and Antione Dufour.

Band Bio:
Boxed Lunch is a Charlottesville VA based indie pop/rock band led by the melodic songwriting duo of Justin Storer (drums/vocals) and Joel Streeter (guitar/vocals), along with Emily Gardiner (vocals), and Zack Beamer (bass/vocals). Boxed Lunch is known for their high-energy live shows and killer harmonies.
Justin and Joel have been following each other around the country for years without knowing it, finally meeting and joining forces in 2018. Both formerly of San Francisco and Brooklyn, they share a love for The Beatles and a gift for classic songwriting. Justin has released two albums of original music — a solo record (Hot Water Sunday) and a record with his Americana quintet, The Working Effective (Dear Brooklyn) — and has toured both nationally and internationally. Joel has two albums of his own, Hear Me Out and Matador, the latter of which features contributions by members of Counting Crows and Train, and was hailed by CD Baby as “a classic sounding pop album full of bounce, melodic arch, and lyrical substance.” As a solo artist, Joel has played iconic venues such as San Francisco’s Fillmore Auditorium (opening for Phil Lesh and Friends) and The Great American Music Hall.
