Emily Eagen whistles her way to South Bronx NeOn on April 16.
Emily is a musical innovator who sings and whistles everything from early music to traditional Americana. Eagen, a two-time international whistling champion, is a singing, whistling, and ukulele-playing member of the popular roots band The Whistling Wolves.
Emily and bandmate Spiff Weigand’s original songs explore children’s flights of fancy, their dreams, and the way they turn familiar concepts on their head. Joined by friends from the Wolves, Eagen and her string band also toss in spoons, bones, jaw harp, and jug for a sound that has audiences stomping, clapping, and whistling.
Emily Eagen and the Whistling Wolves, April 16 at 3 pm. Free
