The First Family of Female Folk will be in Madison Square Park on Wednesday night for an evening of original and traditional songs as part of the Mad. Sq. Music Oval Lawn Series. For thirty-five years, sisters Suzzy and Maggie Roche have been performing together, either in a trio with sister Terre, with brother Dave, or singing backup with Paul Simon, the Indigo Girls, and others. They’ve also teamed up with the next generation, joined by Suzzy’s daughter, Lucy Wainwright Roche, whose father is Loudon Wainwright III, and keep it all in the family with Loudon’s younger sister Sloan as well. On Wednesday in the middle of beautiful Madison Square Park, Suzzy, Maggie, Sloan, and Lucy will come together for a free show that should be filled with warmth, humor, and great music.
