This Monday evening, Oct 20, we are delighted to welcome, all the way from Nashville, BUDDY MONDLOCK! Buddy is a SONGWRITER – his songs have been recorded by people like Guy Clark, Nanci Griffith, Janis Ian, Joan Baez, Peter, Paul and Mary, Garth Brooks, David Wilcox and more… He has co-written with Janis Ian, Garth Brooks, and others. He co-wrote and played and sang on an album with Art Garfunkel and Maia Sharp. He is a Kerrville New Folk winner, and also has a Kerrville award for Song of the Year… What does all this tell you? He is an A-List touring singer-songwriter and we are lucky to have him drop by to feature for us on Monday! This is a show you do not want to miss! When people whose names you recognize record someone’s songs, and they are songwriters themselves, it usually means the songs are EXCEPTIONAL! They are! Come and listen! www.buddymondlock.com
The piano prelude this week is from ROCKIN’ RAY JOZWIAK, who for many years has visited us every month to demonstrate how to get out of corners he seems to have painted himself into. Just when you think he has finally trapped himself – a deft flurry of the cape and he has escaped again! If you have never heard Ray before, he has often been compared to Keith Jarrett. He is also part of our ad hoc house band at the end of the evening, when he lets his rock’n’roll out… Come early to be sure of good seats (don't forget we start at 7:15 pm now); you may come up after 7:00 pm so long as Katherine is ready, and performers may come upstairs as soon as they arrive.
Three-song cameos this week are from REID SCHOENFELDER, whose rock background occasionally pokes through his excellent singer-songwriter material, show promoter and Alt-Country/Americana fiend DOMENIC CICALA, and Todd’s Pick this week, BRIAN KEITH. As usual, poet JOHN HOLLY will be reciting a couple of poems and I'll throw in a poem and some songs later on. TOMY WRIGHT was supposed to be with us this week but was unfortunately called away again, so we hope he'll be able to make it next week.
MISTER RON GOAD will be filling the drum and percussion chair as usual, so performers please feel free to call on him. He is beautifully trained and extremely intuitive, so he won't trample all over your songs – well, he usually doesn't, anyway. Please don't say the word “Toad” when asking him to play, or you may have to wait 11 minutes before you can continue…
