Subject: Kray Van Kirk @ The Borderline Sun 8/1
The Borderline Folk Music Club of Rockland County is very proud indeed to present a special house concert on Sunday afternoon, August 1st with singer-songwriter KRAY VAN KIRK from Juneau, Alaska.

For those of you who are not familiar with his music, Kray Van Kirk is nothing short of phenominal. He has such a sweet and pleasant voice and his songs are very moving. He has the uncanny ability to combine melodies and lyrics in a way that few other singer-songwriters can match. If you don't believe me you can go to his website www.krayvankirk.com and listen to complete songs for yourself. You will literally be astounded by this man's talent and ability. He is Stan Rogers, Gordon Lightfoot, and Richard Thompson, all rolled up into one. Kray is also a superb guitar player and his instrument is composed entirely of graphite (except for the strings).

Kray Van Kirk is very well known in Alaska but rarely ventures into the lower 48 as Alaskans say. We at The Borderline were very fortunate to catch him for a performance. He will be on his way to visit friends in Ireland and happens to have a one day layover on Sunday, August 1st, between planes. You will not be able to catch him anywhere else in our area for the forseeable future.

The concert will take place in Steve Shapiro's Living Room located at 7 - Trailside Court in New City (Rockland County), NY and begins at 2 PM. Admission is $20 per person ($15 for Borderline members) and we ask that you bring a cold pot luck dessert dish to share with 4 other people.

Because this is a house concert we have a limited seating capacity of 50. We expect to sell out very fast. We therefore strongly reccomend that you make advance reservations by e-mail at solz1@optonline.net or by calling (845) 354-4586.
