NEXT SHOW - Karyn Oliver & Dan Pelletier
Award-winning songwriter, Karyn Oliver is part Joan Osborne, a touch of Janis Joplin and a bit of Emmylou Harris - her seductive voice effortlessly oscillates from bluesy soul to country and back. Her musical inspirations come primarily from the eclectic mix of music to which she was exposed while growing up in the musically diverse culture of Washington DC. Her influences include Duke Ellington, Emmylou Harris, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Eva Cassidy, Marvin Gaye and Roberta Flack.

Dan Pelletier, also an award-winning songwriter, is an attractive and refreshingly original performer with an entertaining and quirky sense of humor. Sit an hour with Dan and you'll walk away chuckling, shaking your head, wanting a long, cool drink and the tender lips of someone to love. He will show himself, yourself, your lover, your family and friends and quite a few characters you may not know, but will instantly recognize. They jump out of his songs full of beauty and blemishes, brilliance and foolishness, insanity, humor, intensity and tenderness.
