Appearing Next at Uncle Calvin's

Friday, July 17, 2009   8:00 PM   ($12/$15)
 Giving a beautiful voice to modern country-folk.
Flowery prose, fake sentiment and artful angst won’t be heard in Gretchen’s songs. What is in there are personal and confessional conversations of romance, despair, encouragement, reminiscence and resolve wrapped in eloquent melody and sung in a comforting, crystalline voice, warm as a friend’s hand on the shoulder. This two time Grammy/CMA recognized songwriter’s works are recorded by many of her peers: Etta James, Bonnie Raitt, George Strait, Neil Diamond, Faith Hill and The Neville Brothers among them. Gretchen has released 5 of her own award-winning CDs and tonight she brings us two new ones: “Circus Girl”; and a collaboration with Tom Russell, “One To The Heart/One To The Head.” Her European tour shows always sell-out so order your tickets while you can.

Uncle Calvin's News

Calvin sez it's a new quarter! [Posted 6/28/2009]

This quarter we are bringing back a few performers who’ve previously opened shows for us, folks you’ve enjoyed and asked to see again. We’ll be doing more of this in the coming year with hopes that these “newbies” will become “faves.” There will be a few surprise samplers, too. As always, the first 30 tickets sold for each show will be Early Entry passes so that fans can get prime seats for their faves. Also, as always, we welcome your participation by volunteering. Just sign up on our volunteer list or email us of your interest. We are closed for some vacation days this quarter and hope you’ll use that time to support other local live music venues, but remember: Friday—Uncle Calvin’s!
