Upcoming Performances
Crosby Tyler
|
Saturday March 13th 2010 7:00 PM A naturally gregarious character, Crosby Tyler involves his audience from the moment he sets foot on stage, inviting them into the neighborhood he lives in, sharing his enthusiasm for Big Bill Broonzy and Leadbelly, getting them to sing along to songs about cotton and other crops, and mixing the light-hearted with the sincerely and movingly personal. A storyteller (in his own words, a balladeer), his songs in the style of old folk blues artists regales with hard times, car hopping and running from the law. With guitar and harmonica and a splendid well-worn voice Tyler buzzes on the feedback from the crowd. Flyer Tickets: $15 / $20 at the door Buy Tickets More information at: www.crosbytyler.com 
Bill & Kate Isles

James Hurley
|
Saturday April 10th 2010 7:00 PM Described by one fan as "Sting meets the Beatles, Clapton makes the introductions"! James writes songs that have the sophistication of jazz, the immediacy of blues, the imagery of film, and the intimacy of a lover held close. With a smooth, passionate voice and tastefully understated guitar playing (called "jazz-like virtuosity" by minor 7th Magazine) he leads the listener through tales of whimsy and romance, celebrations of life lived, and stories of love, and love lost. With wry humor and unflinching honesty, he follows his own muse and invites the listener to come along for the ride.

Amanda Pearcy & Louis "Cowboy" Johnson

Saturday April 24th 2010 7:00 PM “It smacks of authenticity and a bit of road weary living. Something that should resonate with most of us in these times when the road of life is anything but smooth.” Dan Alloway, “Folk Fury” - KTEP-FM, El Paso, TX "Amanda is musically somewhere between Emmylou Harris and Dolly Parton to my ears. Her mood is all Emmylou, but her voice has some Dolly in it. If Lisa Hannigan was raised in the South, not in Ireland, she'd probably sound like Amanda. ...Amanda obviously knows country music, and plays it straight, but the stories lean toward the outlaw category...a solid performer and songwriter..." - Tyler John Arnold, MohawkRadio.com Flyer Tickets: $15 / $20 at the door Buy Tickets More information at: www.myspace.com/amandapearcymusic
