Barb and Tom WebberSinger-Songwriter, Folk/Traditional
Veteran singer/songwriters on the Milwaukee music scene for over 20 years, Tom & Barb Webber have received recognition from the Wisconsin Area Music Industry (WAMI) and Great River Folk Festival.
Barb is a natural storyteller. She writes a capella, letting the words choose their own notes without constraints. It is in singing that the story finds its voice. "Words have been kind to me. But words are tools. The bigger gift is engaging in life and people's stories, listening for the universal essence of love, truth, and compassion.”
Tom, born and raised in the Texas Panhandle, began jamming in grade school. He developed a unique 2-finger Travis picking style, contrasting dramatically with his country-rock strum. Tom arranges Barb's music to give voice to each song's personality, and sometimes pens his own songs.
Tom's voice carries the rumble of the Texas Panhandle, a beautiful contrast to the angelic clarity of Barb's. Together their harmonies blend like heaven and earth.
