- Hello, and welcome to "Expressions."
I'm your host, Adara Alston.
For tonight's episode, we are featuring a performance from singer-songwriter Evan Horne.
Originally from East Tennessee and now living in Ithaca, Evan's unique sound is like a walk through the woods, peaceful and contemplative, with new sounds around every bend on the trail.
All of the songs we hear tonight are from Evan's debut studio album, "Witness", and we start the show with "Foxfire."
