May 25th – BOB FRANKE
His extensive collection of original songs has been appropriated by a legion of well-known performers. He is unique in his craft of writing songs which are profoundly touching and ethical without dogma or proselytization. “While fans from Claudia Schmidt to June Tabor may have…incredible taste in picking songs…when they sing Massachusetts-based Bob Franke’s tunes, neither they nor anyone else can come close to the emotional (and spiritual) depth Franke brings to his understated songs of the heart, from ‘Hard Love’ to ‘The Great Storm Is Over’. He continues also to dig into Robert Johnson’s blues, and songs that offer hilarious uses of everything from bicycle repair to computers as metaphors for sex. In the folk singer-songwriter realm, Franke is simply the best.” EXPRESS, Berkeley Ca. $12.00 suggested donation www.bobfranke.com
June 29th- HARVEY REID & JOYCE ANDERSEN
