Saturday Nights on Phinney Ridge
Jim Malcolm
Phinney
Neighborhood Center (Brick Building), 7:30PM
General Admission: $15 Jim Malcolm has been called one of the finest Scots traditional singers of
his generation. The former lead singer for the power group Old Blind Dogs has
long shown his admiration for the Scottish national poet Robert Burns, and
recently released a stunning tribute CD. With his rich voice, confident
guitar work and subtle harmonica, he stamps his unique identity on the songs.
2009 marks the 250th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, and in celebration
Jim will be dressing up as the poet himself for the second set of his
concert, to pay tribute in song (and in humour, of course) to Scotland's most
outstanding cultural figure. It will be highly entertaining and may never be
repeated. The first half of the evening will feature some of Jim's best-loved
songs and a handful of beautiful new songs from his latest CD, The First Cold
Day, which will be on sale for the first time on this tour. Reserve online, or
by calling 206/528-8523. |
