John Gorka | $35
Nov 12, 2010 @ 8 pm
An honored icon of folk tradition, John Gorka plays energetic acoustic music that is not a trend, not a fad, but an expression of everyday life. Gorka's rich baritone voice, masterful songwriting, and dry sense of humor prompted Rolling Stone to call him "the preeminent male singer/songwriter of the new folk movement."

Christine Lavin | $30
Jan 22, 2011 @ 8 pm
Clever, hilarious and fearless, Christine Lavin "is as captivating an artist in solo performance as there is today" (Billboard). A classic modern troubadour, Lavin makes our ordinary lives extraordinary and extraordinarily funny. The New York Times calls her "a garrulous comic observer of contemporary manners."

Wailin' Jennys | $35
Mar 25, 2011 @ 8 pm
The Wailin' Jennys are Nicky Mehta, Ruth Moody and Heather Masse-three distinct voices that together make an achingly perfect vocal sound. All established singer-songwriters in their own right, The Wailin' Jennys are winning fast fans all over the world with their powerful singing and thoughtful rootsy songwriting.

Patty Larkin | $30
Apr 29, 2011 @ 8 pm
Patty Larkin redefines the boundaries of folk-urban pop music with her inventive guitar wizardry and uncompromising vocals and lyrics. Winding her way through soundscapes of evocative vocals and imaginative lyrics, Larkin has earned comparisons to Bonnie Raitt and Lucinda Williams for her superb slide guitar playing.
