JULY 2006 (Austin, Texas) – A series of five concerts will be
presented this fall by the Live Oak Coffeehouse, offering a wide
variety of performing artists. Each show will benefit a local charity
or service organization.

Three-quarters of the gate goes to the performers, and one-quarter to
the selected charity. Since the coffeehouse is an all-volunteer,
not-for-profit organization, all of the money from admissions paid at
the door and season passes goes to the performers and the charity.

This is the line-up of performers for the fall season. All shows will
be held on Friday evenings at the Live Oak Unitarian Universalist
Church in Northwest Austin/Cedar Park, which presents the coffeehouse
as a community outreach program. In the "UU" tradition, there is no
proselytizing or recruiting at the coffeehouse; the church is giving
back to the local community in general and to the Austin music
community in particular.

AUGUST 18: Albert & Gage; George Ensle to open
SEPTEMBER 8: The Malvinas; Mary Melena to open
OCTOBER 13: The Grassy Knoll Boys
NOVEMBER 10: Terri Hendrix with Lloyd Maines
DECEMBER 8: The Freddie Steady 5; Edge City to open

Individual admissions to each show are $10 (except for the November 10
show, which will be $15), and students are admitted for half-price.
Season passes are available for $40 and will include all five shows.

The August 18 season opener will benefit Swan Songs, an Austin-based
project designed to organize private concerts for individuals and
families living with life-threatening illness. Patients have the
opportunity to request a favorite style of music or local area
musician. By bringing live music directly to the home, hospital, or
hospice facility, Swan Songs helps to create a healing and comforting
environment through the fulfillment of musical wishes at the end of
life. For more information, visit the organization's Web site at
www.swansongs.org.

Doors open at 7 p.m. on Friday, August 18, at the Live Oak Unitarian
Universalist Church, located at 3315 El Salido Parkway, Cedar Park.
For driving directions, visit the church's Web site at
