Thursday October 17 RICHARD SHINDELL<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=dcf9d53415&e=a932f187c5> Buy tickets here<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=22224e772a&e=a932f187c5>
Originally from New York, now dividing his time between Buenos Aires, Argentina and New York’s Hudson Valley, RICHARD SHINDELL is a writer whose songs paint pictures, tell stories, juxtapose ideas and images, inhabit characters, vividly evoking entire worlds along the way and expanding our sense of just what it is a song may be<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=7d80bceccf&e=a932f187c5>. From his first record, Sparrow’s Point (1992) to his current release, Careless (September 2016), Shindell has explored the possibilities offered by this most elastic and variable of cultural confections: the song.

Friday October 18  WHAT"S HIS NAME & the OTHER GUY  are Greg Valde & Brian “Looper” Lucas. They are the only surviving members of “Dr. Rhythm & the Harmless Heterosexuals,” the critically ignored and marginally musical 1990s blues rock band.

Buy tickets here<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=f27f07a1e5&e=a932f187c5>.

Originally led by Dan “My Way” Haney (soulful vocalizing) and Dave “the Psycho” Griff (too loud guitar), they missed practices and argued like children. Dan, previously of the Platteville Singers, toured nationally when his family visited U.S. historical markers during the summer of ‘68. Found dead in his apartment in 1996, his career lagged. Dave, discovering he had no mojo, entered the Al Gore Clinic for the Charismatically Impaired, where he is used as a teaching tool for psychotherapists.

Greg “not cool enough for a nickname” Valde(guitar, banjo, mandolin, vocals) joined the group after they played at Happy Acres Home for the Emotionally Challenged, where he was “visiting.” Previously in the trio “Peter, Greg, & Mary,” Greg was unceremoniously ousted by Mary after she had an extended fling with the flashier Paul. Left homeless, Greg took work as an itinerant preacher until joining Jimmy Swaggert’s Holy Rollers, where he began his song-writing career, penning such evangelical classics as “God is Broke,” “Send Us Your Pension” & “Even Jesus Don’t Love You.”

Brian “Looper” Lucas(harmonica, bass, guitar, mandolin, vocals) was born into status and wealth in London. The son of a shipping magnate and mining heiress he traveled to Chicago to study cello. Moving to Milwaukee to study brewing, then to Oshkosh to study alcohol consumption, he steadily worked his way down. Left without a harmonica player when Dan died suddenly, the band was desperate. Brian’s big break came when his summer job mowing lawns branched out into raking and bagging.

The rest, as they say, is history.

Saturday October 19 THE EMMYLOUS<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=f3599054c5&e=a932f187c5>/ JASON LYNK & FRIENDS

First forming in 2014, THE EMMYLOUS<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=6ce15efc43&e=a932f187c5>broke into the Madison, Wisconsin music scene as a trio of female acoustic folk/rock musicians. Their acoustic, singer-songwriter vibe quickly gave them a home at area wine bars and coffee houses in and around the area. With three layers of vocal harmonies on a backdrop of acoustic guitars, keyboard, and accordion, band members Katie Lowery, Ryn Thoen, Kristi Blitz, and Ed Boswell (referred to jokingly as the “Lou” of the Emmylous) create tiered blends to songs both well-known and self-written. The Emmylous’, self-titled, debut album, released in June of 2019, is a careful arrangement and collaboration of points of view by this Madison-based group. The album spans themes of despair, redemption, gratitude, and unrepentance.

JASON LYNKis a contemporary folk singer whose clear, driving vocals lend themselves to modern reinterpretations of various music styles, from classic rock to pop, folk, and country-western. Jason hung up his guitar for the better part of a decade to experience the joys of climbing the corporate ladder, but he has tuned up his strings and is ready to share his music with you. Jason will be joined by STEVE TESMERon Dobro. Steve is an accomplished Dobro player and is a member of the popular local groups Three Thin Dimes and Jill and the JAX. Though their musical styles are diverse, Steve and Jason have found a perfect harmony to showcase exciting renditions of many of your favorite songs. Other friends may join in.

Please call 920-563-9391 to reserve seats.

Thursday October 24 CHRISTY HAYS<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=85804d805c&e=a932f187c5>

“Like Lucinda Williams in a Carhartt jacket, CHRISTY HAYS works rugged metaphors into emotionally charged country folk.” (Austin Chronicle).

Christy Hays’ music has folk and country tinges<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=41b548c115&e=a932f187c5>, thoughtfully penned stories and a full band sound that is both driving alt country and moody folk rock.  Compared to Brandi Carlile, Lucinda Williams, Rhett Miller, Kathleen Edwards and Patty Griffin, Hays has a sound uniquely her own.

Friday October 25  KAREN JOHNSON<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=fc0d9ff1b1&e=a932f187c5> grew up in West Allis, WI, holding dear to her heart the old country songs she’d hear while riding along in her dad’s old Chevy truck. At a young age, Karen learned to play the Tamburitza and sing harmony as a member of the American Croatian Silver Strings Tamburitzans. Now playing the guitar, she has sung and played professionally since 1998. One of her first and most memorable performances was playing guitar and singing in her own hometown for West Allis Western Days. She has also performed at the Jefferson County Fair, Whitewater 4th of July Festival, and the Rock County Fair, to name a few. In Fort Atkinson, you might catch her at the Farmers Market, but her most favorite place to perform is in the wonderful listening room of the Cafe Carpe. Karen sings songs of her favorite artists including Joan Baez, Nanci Griffith, and Alison Krauss. She chooses songs that touch her heart and hopes they will touch yours also.

Saturday October 26 CRAIG CARDIFF<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=ef2ccdfca7&e=a932f187c5> – one of those Canadians
Armed with an extensive catalogue of songs, his Book of Truths, sharp wit and soft voice, Cardiff is considered a pioneer in alternate venue touring, often appearing in churches, camps, prisons, basements, festivals, kitchens and even taking to the streets, bringing his fans with him.

With a voice described as “warm, scratched, sad and sleepy,<https://cafecarpe.us2.list-manage.com/track/click?u=046d0b1b507f98ba48d1434b4&id=7be8f67f25&e=a932f187c5>” Cardiff sings songs that expose the human condition, putting a magnifying glass to the clumsier and less proud moments. He can turn any setting into an intimate affair, infusing his music and lyrics with an uncompromising humanism.

“From the majestic loops of The Very Last Night Of The End Of The World to the feel-good caress of Safe Here, the cello-enhanced lullaby Gate and a sprinkling of starting-over songs, it’s a gorgeous album that seems to find a balance between heartbreak and joy. Listening to Cardiff’s gentle, expressive voice, you can imagine that Paul Simon is whispering in one ear and Van Morrison in the other.” Lynn Saxberg, Ottawa Citizen
