Mad Agnes In Concert At South Church

By South Church

Mad Agnes is coming to South Church to perform on Sunday, November 8 at 1:00 p.m. Who is Mad Agnes? It is a genre-bending trio of seasoned and talented musicians—Margo Hennebach, Adrienne Jones, and Mark Saunders—whose intricate harmonies, compelling songwriting and passionate delivery have established their fan base on two continents.

In their current iteration, Mad Agnes uses primarily one microphone around which they form and re-form, early-radio style. Their ease with one another on stage invites the audience into their world of human connection and spontaneous fun. Well-crafted instrumentation – using guitars, mandolin, ukulele, piano, melodica, an inventive keyboard and three-part harmonies as tight as jeans from the dryer – enthralls audiences again and again.
