Saturday, August 7 8:00 pm
Venue: Sycamore
1118 Cortelyou Road, Brooklyn, New York (Check the upcoming Shows page for a MAP)

8pm - I'll be opening with a solo set of fingerstyle guitar pieces off of the newly released EP, some tunes from my first record, and even some songs with words (perhaps a few from the Bowery Boy Blue catalog). And I'm super excited that Timothy Quigley will be joining me onstage to provide some percussion for a song or two.
Then, be sure and stick around for the following - They're going to be amazing: 

9PM Kane Mathis Duo with Timothy Quigley
KANE MATHIS. Kane Mathis plays the kora, the 21-string West African harp. His music is well known in Gambia, where he has appeared on national television and has played for the Gambian president. Kane will be joined by percussionist Timothy Quigley, on calabash. "His sound is both authentic and spontaneous, good enough to sound like an insider, but relaxed and personal enough to be far more than polished mimicry. It is rare indeed for a non-African to reach this level in any African tradition, particularly such a subtle and demanding one." -Banning Eyre, Afropop Worldwide
