Jul 10, 2009 Livingston Taylor
8:00 p.m.

Livingston Taylor's career as a professional musician has rattled along for over thirty years.
He has toured-some might say, perpetually-with such major artists as Linda Ronstadt, Jimmy Buffett, Fleetwood Mac, and Jethro Tull. He has recorded thirteen albums, and there are with three retrospectives as well. He currently maintains a performing schedule of more than a hundred shows a year, which include club, theater, college, and full symphony repertoire. Describing himself as a pop singer, Livingston also includes his guitar, and piano in his performances. The piano has supplanted the five-string banjo as the difficulties of air travel have forced him to leave it at home. He says it is a nice idea to be able to sit down to play as one grows older.

Jul 17, 2009 Enter The Haggis
8:00 P.M.

"There aren't many groups in North America who could lay claim to possibly 18 different genres of music, but Toronto's Enter The Haggis is one of them. To engage this quintet is to indulge rock, fusion, bluegrass, traditional Celtic fare, agitpop, folk, even Latin flavors. Sounds awfully confused, right? Wrong. ETH is one of those rare jewels that actually pulls it all off as if to own everything." (UFO Music)

Aug 15, 2009 Richard Shindell
8:00 P.M.

"Shindell is a master builder of songs, yet always leading listeners toward the emotional essence of the moment or character he is evoking. As with all master craftsmen, knowing what to leave out is as important to him as what he puts in. Shindell has uncanny sense of the theater of a song, building his ballads sparely and subtly, set to sweeping graceful melodies." ( SCOTT ALARICK, The Boston Globe)

Aug 19, 2009 Suzy Bogguss
8:00 p.m.

Back for a repeat performance, Suzy Bogguss will be at Jonathan's Ogunquit on Wednesday, August 19th!

For those of you unfamiliar with Suzy;

Bogguss was "discovered" by talent scouts from Capitol Nashville while singing at Dollywood, Dolly Parton's theme park in East Tennessee's Smokey Mountains. A tape of her music that she sold at the park got into the hands of a label executive and three weeks later she was signed.  Suzy has collaborated with some of Nashville's most infl uential songwriters -- Chet Atkins, Steve Dorff, Matraca Berg, Pat Bunch ... however, it should come as no surprise that her favorite co-writer is husband, Doug Crider. In ‘93, the two penned her top-fi ve single "Just Like the Weather."

Aug 22, 2009 CHERYL WHEELER
8:00 p.m.

Back for 3rd year in a Row! “From her albums you can tell that she is a gifted songwriter with a beautiful voice. From other people's comments about her you can learn that she is a natural story teller with a fantastic sense of humor. But until you see her in person, you never really believe what you've been told about her. Besides, almost half of the songs she does during her shows haven't been recorded! Cheryl's songs are often emotional portraits of people, leaving you with the impression that you know the characters. You find yourself being dragged into the song rather than standing outside and observing. Other songs by Cheryl are hilarious situation comedies”

Sep 26, 2009 Tret Fure
8:00 p.m.

Tret Fure continues to turn out marvelous albums, her latest being "True Compass" (Tomboy Girl). Who else could have written a love song such as "Look What Love Has Given Me"? It's a song that is at once personal and universal in its affectionate expression of happiness. Fure keeps it coming in the jazzy flourishes of the title track, the acoustic twang of "Six Beers," the heartache of "32 Years," the political voice of " Try" and the rhythmic "Leap of Faith."
