FiddleSticks will join local energetic acoustic singer-songwriters Dave

is aptly classified as "electric folk," his tunes are hip and danceable with
a unique earthy quality. Jason's element is solo acoustic performance.
He's a lively vocalist, guitarist and pianist. His songs are unique with a
modern folk flavor, and a kind of poignant, universal, take-home message. $3
at the door. Bring a pillow!
