Program Description
Event Details
Michael Reno Harrell will be telling stories in his signature Southern Appalachian style at the Pack Library. "Easy” is as good an adjective to describe Michael’s style as any. His personal experience based stories certainly are easy to listen to. And easy depicts his style of telling as well. He gives his audience space to absorb and to savor… and to laugh! Michael is a master of taking his listeners back to when we all remember life as easy…back to childhood. Back to the days of bicycles, fireworks, piano lessons, good dogs and bad school lunches. Join us for an afternoon of stories and music, listeners of all ages are welcome. Register in advance to reserve a seat.
Michael Reno Harrell is an award winning songwriter, a published author, a nationally known storyteller and a visual artist. And he’s from the Southern Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina where all those things are as much a part of life as breathing. Michael’s talents in the aforementioned Fields have taken him to forty-four states and several foreign countries over his over Fifty plus year career. His work is based in life experiences that reflect the culture of his mountain roots, which go back eight generations. But, Michael’s stories, songs and artworks reflect not only the southern experience, but also American’s story. His work, in whichever form it may take, all comes down to one thing...story.
