Possessed of a far better voice than most of today’s more renowned singer-songwriters, Chris Webster never seemed interested in pursuing fame. So fans have caught her playing rub-board and sax with Davis dance band Mumbo Gumbo, or singing with just guitar backing as an opening act at the Freight & Salvage. A few years ago she teamed with classical singing sister Cassie for some duo shows. But now she returns with a new CD, Something in the Water, and headlines the Freight, backed by guitar master Scott Nygaard and harmonica ace Bill Edwards. Wednesday, May 16. 8 p.m., $19.50.
