Shakatak
Show Time 8:00pm / Doors Open 7:00pm
Shakatak have enjoyed a level of success and career longevity rarely paralleled in contemporary music – but then Shakatak is a particularly unusual group. Because of the nature of their music, their fan base is one that is far reaching while always retaining an “underground” element. This paradox sees the band, who are known primarily as serious jazz/funk musicians, enjoying both high “cult” status and instant recognition as a household name.

Kim Richey
Show Time 8:00pm / Doors Open 7:00pm
"[Kim Richey] would rule the charts in a land where Marshall Crenshaw was king, Aimee Mann queen, and the The Beatles never put out another record after Revolver" – Steve Horowitz, popmatters.com.
"Richey entices you with sad and unembellished music that reveals an original spirit - and then she ensnares you for keeps by making you consider all the noiseless sensations that no songs can ever contain" – Timothy White, Billboard Magazine.
The 15-year musical journey that has led Kim to her latest album, "Wreck Your Wheels" has been a dream run. Aside from two Grammy nominations, she has released five critically acclaimed albums; been listed in the Top 10 Albums of 1999 in US Time Magazine for her album "Glimmer", and been given 4 stars in Rolling Stone and named Alt-Country Album of the Year in People Magazine for her album "Rise".

Gwyneth Herbert
Show Time 8:00pm / Doors Open 7:00pm
Gwyneth Herbert is an artist who continues to redefine (and defy) our expectations. A singer-songwriter with one foot in the jazz world and one somewhere in the future, with pierrot-dotted eyes, polka-spotted shoes and swanny whistle in hand she may appear as whimsical as a Bonzo Dog, but writes beautiful melodies and has a poet’s grasp of the world around her. Her songs are populated by a living, breathing cast of beaten-down dreamers, jaded city-dwellers, and women in a quandary, and have the critics in a fizz, scrambling for comparisons with Lennon and McCartney, Nina Simone, the Kinks and Tom Waits.
