Hi everybody

  Thanks to everyone who came to our shows in NYC and Stoneybrook last month.

   Here in south Florida, Thursday 3/9 7 pm is my 2d concert of Songs Of Greenwich Village, a solo concert of great songs from the Village through the years. It’s at Osher/FAU Lifelong Learning in Jupiter, and it’s live only, not streamed, and open to the public. Please call 561-799-8547 for info and tickets. We had a blast in Boca Raton!

    It’s a busy month, with shows at the Brewhouse Gallery in Lake Park 3/10, Jupiter Irishfest, 3/11, and St. Patrick’s Day 3/17 at Carson’s in Stuart (full band), and Sunday 3/19 12:30 pm, at Bayjam in islamorada, Those are with Tracy Sands and Rex Blazer.. On March 25 Big Brass Bed is at Rudy’s in Lake Worth.

At the end of the month I have concerts 3/31 at The Blue Tavern in Tallahassee, FL and 4/2 at Sundays at Stetson’s  in Fruit Cove, FL. FYWDAK (that’s For You Who Don’t Already Know) Stetson Kennedy was a key figure in bringing down the KKK years ago, and his home has been preserved as a historic site.
