Sat. Aug. 17 @ 7:30pm Concert. KENNY WHITE Hailed by reviewers from New York Times to San Francisco for his “thrilling” and “unique” piano playing, Kenny White is a talented singer-songwriter and a successful NYC-based record producer. He has written, performed, and produced music for hundreds of TV and radio commercials and film soundtracks, and has worked with stars like Mick Jagger, Merle Haggard, and Keith Richards. Although he is an accomplished and sought-after pianist, White has recently become known for his clever lyrics, compared to songwriters as diverse as Randy Newman and Leonard Cohen. His performances include original music, with songs ranging from humorous to heart-breaking, with White accompanying himself on piano and guitar. He often tours with Cheryl Wheeler and with Judy Collins. White is currently touring in support of his new album, Long List of Priors, which features guest musicians such as David Crosby, who says that “Kenny has earned a place among my favorite singer-songwriters—a true wordsmith and musician who reveals a fine sense of humor as well.”

Sat. August 24 @ 7:30pm Concert. IMAGINE: The Beatles Solo Years
In 1969, The Beatles walked across Abbey Road and away from the studio where they created the most important body of work that any rock band has before or since. Throughout the 1970’s and into the 1980’s John, Paul, George and Ringo each continued to write and record countless iconic songs keeping them front and center in the eyes and ears of the world. IMAGINE, brings together the solo hits of the individual Beatles as they might have sounded had they continued together and if their legendary producer George Martin would have crafted these songs along with them.
