Saturday at Gladiolus Music Festival, catch an intimate acoustic journey with Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter Sasha Kuznetsov. Sasha takes the stage with an original program that moves between raw intensity and quiet introspection. His poetry lives in contrasts — dread and hope, the everyday and the extraordinary, darkness and light, unfolding in moments that feel deeply personal and strikingly universal at the same time. Sasha’s recognizable fingerpicking style and unorthodox chords provide for a distinct and captivating musical experience.
