Previews: STORIES, EXCUSES AND ALIBIS at Theatre 29

A very eclectic weekend of fun and creative energy and original music is in store at Theatre 29 when Kurt Schauppner and his friends take the stage at 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 11 and 2:30p.m. Sunday, January 12.  Schauppner, best known as editor of The Desert Trail, will bring a collection of songs he wrote or co-wrote over the past four decades in, “Stories, Excuses and Alibis.”

Music will range from the rock of “Nothing in Common,” to the blues of “Red Beans and Rice,” and from the folkish tones of “Parallel Paths,” to the introspection of “Blue Roses.” Audience members will get snippets of stories about each song.

Schauppner will be joined on stage by members of Psychic Black; Evan Hoffman Jastermsky on bass and violin, David Diaz on guitar, Lisa Diaz with backing vocals and Paco Diaz on drums. Also helping bring songs to life will be special guest Thom Merrick, best known as one half of the musical duo “Hunter and the Wick’d”.
