Nostalgia for drive-in theaters. The angst of driving Highway
17. The wrath of bad karma. Just a few of the topics you can expect in a show
from songwriter Michael Gaither. Probably best known as a solo performer
with five CDs of original material, Michael has most recently added a full band
to the mix. |

Soquel Local songbird, Sharon Allen's musical path
started in Maryland, amongst a family of fireside musicians. The calling was in
her blood, and she found her way, dancing, singing, clogging and picking to
California, where, for many years, she fronted a blues rock band, The
Firebirds. Working with B.B. King, Etta James, Robben Ford, Elvin
Bishop, and Lonnie Mack only honed Sharon's musical chops. Fifteen
years ago Allen found her writer's voice and an ongoing collaboration with
Sherry Austin and a renewed appreciation of acoustic music. For the past
several years The Sherry Austin with Henhouse group found a natural home
in the folk music family of California's central coast. Sharon is currently
investing her musical efforts with her own band, Sharon Allen and The Dusty
Boots (Sharon vocals and guitar; Mike Mongiello, guitar; Jerry
Bradley,vocals and bass; and Jimmy Norris, vocals and percussion).
In this show Jim Hannibal, saxophone, will join as a guest and Sharon
promises to mix it up with some folk, country and toe-tapping blues!

Chris Webster & Nina
Gerber |
|
|
Chris Webster is a soul singer beyond genre. In the
course of recording over 20 albums on her own and with others, she has drawn
equally from classic R&B thumpers and gospel-grass prayers, from rockabilly
rave-ups and singer/songwriter confessions. Webster's work is rooted in the
classic American tension between a yearning for transcendence and a lusty
connection to the here-and-now. Her voice conveys a passion that connects with
the longings of her audience. She expresses sometimes-troubled feelings that
everyone understands. But Webster goes beyond pain to hope; her voice can be a
compassionate balm to the troubled soul. Performing live, her intensity brings
a hush to every room she plays. Those who see her hear it: Chris Webster is the
real deal. http://www.chriswebstermusic.com |

Incendio |

Incendio has once again summoned the muse and created a new album of incendiary, passionate, breath-taking, original music. Appropriately-titled Summoning the Muse, the recording features all the beloved attributes of this Latin-based world-fusion band — exemplary guitar playing, catchy melodies, dynamic arrangements and fiery performances. Incendio has legions of fans throughout the United States from two decades of extensive touring and they have a strong international audience from their previous eight best-selling albums. The guitar-playing members of the group — Jim Stubblefield, Jean-Pierre Durand and Liza Carbe — have their own recordings released, and all three (as well as their drummer Timothy Curle) have performed and recorded with many others acts. http://incendioband.com |
