Joe Isaacs' Music Matters Showcase
featuring Mark Sylvester, Joe Isaacs, Greta Ehrig and Rick Callendar

Premier English Coffee
8827 Centre Park Drive, Columbia, MD 20740
(443) 367-0105

I'm looking forward to rotating sets with these three guys. Rick's a somewhat edgey, lyric-rich songwriter. Joe's a generous performer, presenter, and nurturer of new music. And Mark's an expressive instrumentalist and composer, who'll also be accompanying me. I'm not familiar with this venue, but with us -- and you -- there mixin' it up, it should be a fine place to graze after church, recover from your Equinox Bacchanalia, and/or get going on your taxes!

**Saturday, April 21st at 6:00 pm sharp!**

"An Evening of Poetry: the Global Community"

Join poets Merle Collins, Donna Denize, Carlos Schroder, Greta Ehrig, and Virginia Bell for an evening of poetry at The Culture Shop, a unique store and gathering place in Takoma, DC, dedicated to fair trade and community education. The poets will explore the notion of "a global community," reading poems about borders, frontiers, translation, citizenship, migration, race, gender, and sexuality. . Please come out for this lively, provocative, and important event!

Kit combines classical and traditional techniques in fiddle and folk-dance music, and is experimenting with using the cello as an accompaniment to singing. I'll be performing some of my poetry and songs on guitar.

Space 7:10 at Kefa Cafe is "an organic art space exhibiting an evolving mix of contemporary, outsider, visionary, and world cultural artwork." A gallery, a salon series, an intimate performance space. Coffee, gelato, quiche, soup, sandwiches, pastries. Meet, eat, and greet starts at 6:30.
