This week is one of our favorite writers, great songs
for us all!


September 17 Peter Mayer ($12) 8 PM

Peter is an audience favorite and we're sure this will
be a sold out show for this, one of contemporary
songwriting's top ranked members. His rich voice sounds
a bit like a young James Taylor and his thoughtful
eclectic songs, peppered with down home wisdom, are
borne of a bright and hopeful world. Peter's humor is
of a gentle good nature and we are very pleased to
welcome him back to our house.
