Thursday, September 29th – Adler and Hearne – 7:00 p.m.
Hailing from the Spring Hollow Organic Song Farm in the piney woods outside Winnsboro, Texas, performing songwriters Lynn Adler and Lindy Hearne serve up a bountiful harvest of folk-jazz and blues-grass music. The two met in Nashville while on solo musical journeys. Years later, their paths merged in Texas, where they formed the duo Adler & Hearne. Adler & Hearne’s songs reflect glimmers of their life stories, and their home – considered hallowed ground by the stream of friends and family who gather there for the reverie of music making.

Joshua Davis Album Release Party: Friday, September 30th 8:00 p.m.
Opening band: Younce Guitar Duo at 6:00 p.m.
Joshua Davis is a seamless union of both city and country. The music is steeped in ragtime blues, sweet jazz, real country and cajun. Davis blends these traditions with his love for gritty rock n’ roll and old soul. The result is what Performing Songwriter Magazine calls, “Some of the liveliest and most rocking roots music around”.
Davis travels across the country playing at concert halls, old theatres, festivals, clubs, dives, classrooms and parks. He’s released a number of albums, including his 2005 solo effort, “Fool Rooster”, which earned the album of the year slot from “Progressive Torch and Twang”, a cult favorite Americana show on WDBM. He’s released four albums with roots-rocking quartet Steppin’ In It, one album of jazz standards with Shout Sister Shout, and has appeared on too many albums to count.
Saturday October 1, Nervous but Excited 7:30 p.m.
The Michigan-based folk duo Nervous but Excited is an incredibly unique harmony built upon songwriters and multi-instrumentalists Kate Peterson and Sarah Cleaver. Road warriors to the core, their endless passion has landed them on stages with folks like Ani Difranco, Iron and Wine, Utah Phillips, Catie Curtis, Toshi Reagon, Ferron, Girlyman and Cheryl Wheeler, to name a few. Backed up by an arrangement of guitars, banjo, mandolin and bass, their live show will take you on a journey through a variety of emotions and genres, always keeping you guessing which is next. You might cry, you’ll definitely laugh, and they hope you’ll leave feeling that your heart has grown just a little larger.
