One homegrown (Cary)... one transplant (TPR)...
one heck of a good time!!


April 22 The Dreamsicles ($12) 8 PM

This delightfully groovy duo brings it all: Great
grooves on original and fave R&B; anthems of social
and political insights; hip pop songs of romance
and humor. Award winning songwriter Tom Prasada-Rao
is a top notch instrumentalist on familiar and
exotic stringed instruments and keyboard and he
sings with a warm silky baritone. Cary Cooper has
an impish quality in her lithe veil-like vocals and
her songwriting is recognized by a Kerrville New Folk
award. Their performance together is upbeat and
engaging and we predict you won't be able to sit
still!

Opening: Johann Wagner

Recent winner of the Kerrville Collegiate Songwriting
competition.
