We only taped on show in January because Michael Braunfeld had to cancel his appearance the day before the taping due to a health problem. But Tim Grimm's show was great!

Upcoming:

660) 1/26/17 Tim Grimm - a Rennaisance man in the performing arts world… He has for the past 15 years, blended his love for songwriting, travel, and the storytelling of acting (theatre, film and television). His most recent recording, THE TURNING POINT, produced the #1 song on Folk radio in 2014-- KING OF THE FOLKSINGERS. It was a particularly gratifying honor given the song is a tribute to Tim's friend and musical icon, Ramblin' Jack Elliott. http://www.timgrimm.com

662) 2/22/17 Helen O'Shea & The Shanakee Project - In 2016, at the release party for her first EP "Mama Told You...", Helen O'Shea put together a 10 piece band to perform her original songs, merging existing rock & bluegrass bands to achieve her unique "AmeriCeltiCana" sound. A smaller version of that band went on to become "The Shanakee Project" - the name derived from the Gaelic word "seanachai" meaning "storyteller", featuring Garry Pearsall, Drew Turock, John Mazzeo & David Ross. https://www.facebook.com/helenosheamusic

Tentative (Cablevision hasn't answered our request for the date. Assuming we get the studio Heather Pierson Trio is requesting accomodations for the night.)

663) 3/16/17 Heather Pierson Acoustic Trio - www.heatherpierson.com

3/16/17? Michael Braunfeld - Michael Braunfeld is, first and foremost, a storyteller. His songs capture the everyday triumphs and struggles of ordinary people. His dynamic guitar style, trading off between percussive strumming and intricate finger picked melodies, has been compared to that of John Fahey. His powerful vocals have been likened to those of Bruce Springsteen. As a songwriter, Michael evokes the very best of Springsteen, Townes Van Zandt, Steve Earle, John Prine and his hero, Bill Morrissey. www.MichaelBraunfeld.com

6/15/17 Fendrick & Peck - Full of wonderful spirit, creativity, and heart, Fendrick & Peck’s neo-traditionalist folk music is a brave concoction of mature lyrics with delicate melodies, exquisite harmonies, and a dash of old school. “Talent by soul mates,” said one audience member. With a constantly evolving performance experience, filled with old poems that stir the heart, evocative songs played on aged acoustic instruments, and charming stories, an evening with them is food for the soul. They live and thrive in the awkward space between deep questions and deep knowing with sparkling humor and enthusiasm. www.fendrickandpeck.com
