SUMMARY:Bright Series: Question of the Century with opener Cora Burch
DESCRIPTION:Folk Global Singer Songwriter		\n\n		\n			Share:\n			\n								\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n\n				\n				\n					\n				\n			\n		\n\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	Question of the Century is a rising folk duo with gorgeous harmonies\, a vintage spirit\, and a sound that feels both timeless and immediate. Made up of Skidmore College students Ellie Ushakov and Francis Davies\, the duo grew out of a shared love of 1960s folk music and an instant musical chemistry. Their songs are warm\, lyrical\, and heartfelt—built on close harmonies\, acoustic textures\, and a simplicity that lets the writing shine. It’s music that invites listening\, connection\, and a little leaning in. Both artists bring their own distinct voices to the collaboration. Francis Davies is a Saratoga Springs–based singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose work blends folk\, indie\, and classic influences with a strong storytelling sensibility. His songwriting carries a quiet confidence and a deep respect for tradition\, while remaining firmly rooted in the present. In addition to his musical work\, Francis is a former Caffè Lena intern and a current volunteer—making this show a true homecoming. Ellie Ushakov aka Amélie is an indie-folk singer-songwriter whose music is intimate\, thoughtful\, and emotionally precise. Writing and recording original songs at Skidmore’s Grossman Recording Studio\, she brings a gentle clarity to her work as both a vocalist and guitarist. Her recent release\, “Drones in New Jersey\,” highlights her knack for melody\, atmosphere\, and honest expression. Ellie is also part of the Caffè Lena family\, having recently joined the staff part-time. Together\, Question of the Century creates music that feels rooted in the past while speaking directly to the present—songs shaped by harmony\, care\, and curiosity. Their performances are understated but compelling\, perfectly suited to a listening room where every note and lyric can land. SAMPLE SONG  We’re proud to welcome these two young artists—both deeply connected to Lena’s community—to the stage. Come hear what happens when tradition\, friendship\, and thoughtful songwriting meet. Opener Cora Burch’s style is primarily indie-pop and singer-songwriter. Her tracks\, such as "Sugarpill" and "Butterflies\,"often feature acoustic-driven arrangements and emotive\, clear vocals that highlight her lyrical storytelling. Originally from Los Angeles\, she began writing music as early as age three\, with her first song titled "Rolly-Pin". Her song "Sugarpill" was featured in the Song Academy "Top 30 Songs" for international songwriters aged 13–18 in 2024. Cora is also a current student at Skidmore. Come experience an evening of bold voices\, joyful noise\, and new folk energy at Caffè Lena.
