Hi Folks, If you'll excuse a shameless plug, just wanted to mention -- especially to any Detroit-area Catters -- that I'll be performing a short set at the "Tin Whistle Concert" put on annually by Paint Creek Folklore Society (my old folk club!) on Sat, Nov 10th. They have an excellent line-up, which I'm delighted & excited to be a part of! Here's the info from their website: This is our 41st concert, and we've snagged a couple great headliners this year: STELLA! American roots band from Michigan; singer-songwriter super group with three-part vocal harmonies. Songwriter Jo Serrapere, blues powerhouse Jen Sygit, and Gospel songstress Laura Ann Bates. JAN & JIM Jan Krist and Jim Bizer's intricately layered instrumental parts and stunning vocal harmonies soar. At the heart is the profound respect and playful interaction they bring to each other's songs, the spark of two remarkable artists working and playing together. With a Paint Creek Sampler, Featuring MANDOLIN SOJOURN Local artists Jack Erickson, Phyllis Isabel and Marty Buchanan play a amazing range of styles, from popular to folksy, and from classical to country-western. VIKKI APPLETON All the way from England! Vikki brings with her the tradition of English Pub Singing and presents it with her trademark infectious energy and enthusiasm. Saturday, November 10, 2012 Doors open at 7:00 PM, concert starts at 7:30 PM Tickets $15: call (248) 889-3013 to reserve yours! Fellowship Hall at University Presbyterian Church in Rochester Hills (map here) The hall is handicap-friendly and smoke-free.
