THE SONGWRITER'S BEAT 8:30PM
(Kathleen Pemble; Joe Cerisano; The Wiggins Sisters; Marianne Bennett)
Now in its 10th year, The Songwriter's Beat is New York's premiere performing songwriter series.

Hosted and founded by Valerie Ghent, four up-and-coming songwriters perform new material in a supportive and intimate atmosphere.

This month's Songwriter's Beat features Marianne Bennett, The Wiggins Sisters Joe Cerisano and Kathleen Pemble. Founded in 2000, The Songwriter's Beat has presented over 280 songwriters from the Tri-State area as well as visiting songwriters from other parts of the United States, Canada, France, the UK, Ireland, Australia, South Africa, Cuba and Japan. Every third Wednesday of the month, four songwriters of varying musical styles perform original songs and are encouraged to try out their newest material and arrangements. The series culminates in a week-long songwriters festival each July, featuring performers from throughout the years.

The Songwriter's Beat welcomes songwriters from around the world, so when planning your trip to New York, allow time for The Songwriter's Beat!

The Songwriter's Beat is honored to receive support from The ASCAP Foundation.
