SPECIAL SHOW ANNOUNCEMENT FROM Jim Patton & Sherry Brokus
|
Who: Jim Patton & Sherry Brokus When: Mon
Feb 18 2013 @ 07:00 PM Where: Brewer's Alley, Frederick,
MD
|
We'll be in Frederick next
Monday evening at Brewer's Alley, 124 N. Market St., upstairs as part of the Frederick
Acoustic Music Enterprises Songwriter Showcase. The show begins with piano at 7:30,
and we're the featured act, playing about a 45 min. set beginning around 9:00. It's
a fun show, so much so that when we're in the area, we go play a three song 'cameo'
even if we're not the featured act. Good food, and Rod, Ron, & Todd are excellent
and talented hosts, doing a real good thing for songwriters in the area. Come see
us. Last time we were there, we had 3 percussionists, Jim on guitar, and Rod on
'ghost harmonica', an unusual lineup for us, to say the least, but it worked. See
you there. J&S

"Patton’s theme is characters
trying, often failing, to draw the card that will make everything all right, but,he
reveals his ace in the hole with the closing I Turn To You, on which Brokus affirms
that at the end of the day, they’ll always have
each other." — John Conquest, Third Coast Music Magazine
"Polishing
the various guises of coupling most honestly and authentically ... Ray of Hope doesn't
sugarcoat and doesn't wander, qualities often underrated in songwriting and performance" — Margaret
Moser, The Austin Chronicle
"“Plain, simple, unadorned, unpretentious
lyrics and singing that weave their tales of universal life, love and woe with the
slyness of Hemingway and the convoluted depth of William Faulkner."
" — John Hammel, Homegrownradionj.com
