Thanks again to Dan Navarro, Dan Schwartz and Doan Brian Roessler for a great show! We couldn't do this without the numerous friends and family members who help make things run smoothly so thanks to everyone involved. And of course a big thank you to everyone who came to the show! See you again next year.

For more than 20 years, Dan Navarro has written, recorded and toured to a fiercely loyal, energetic national audience. Starting his career as a songwriter, his songs have been covered by Pat Benatar (The Top Five "We Belong"), the Bangles, Dave Edmunds, The Tempatations, Dionne Warwick and a host of others.
Best known for his long partnership in the acoustic folk-roots duo Lowen & Navarro, Dan has recorded and toured solo since June 2009 after Eric Lowen's retirement due to the progression of his affliction with ALS (aka Lou Gehrig's Disease). Eric ended his battle with ALS on March 23, 2012.
Dan's solo performances are marked by the same hallmarks as his work with Lowen & Navarro — songs of rich insight and experience, delivered straight-up, with honesty, grace and heart, in his moving and expressive baritone voice.
We hope that you will take this opportunity to part of something special at our house this September. You can also follow Dan on Facebook at Dan Navarro Music.
If you're planning to attend, here's how we do this ...
Unfortunately we are cancelling the August 17th show with Clarence Bucaro due to scheduling problems. While this doesn't happen often, please understand that for this to make financial sense for the artitsts that we bring in, they need to have enough shows in the area to make the trip and in this case, Clarence had some cancellations that he was having trouble replacing.
Since we only host shows when the weather is nice (so we can be outside), we'll be looking to try and reschedule him next year. In the meantime, check out Clarence's music at http://clarencebucaro.com/ (where you can also keep an eye on his tour dates in case he makes it to this area over the winter).
As we approach summer, it's time to mark your calendars for 2014. We have two shows on the schedule for this summer/fall so invite your friends and plan on attending as both are sure to be a great time!
A big thank you to Dan Navarro, Dan Schwartz and Doan Brian Roessler for a great show. Another outstanding performance!
The fundraiser for the Eric Lowen Trust was successful (about $1100 raised) so thanks to all for your support.
A special thanks to numerous friends and family members who help make things run smoothly.
And of course a final thanks for everyone who came to the show! Hopefully we will see you all again next year!

As promised here's a preview of Sunday's surprise as part of our fundraiser for the Eric Lowen Trust. Plan on showing up to see the final product (as we're still tweaking the label). Fans of Eric and Dan won't want to miss out on this!
