Hello All,

I've got an incredible line-up for my Berkeley, CA house concert
series this fall:

Monday, Sept 7(Labor Day):	Tony McManus.
Scotland's most awesome guitarist.� Tony will be in the area as an
instructor at Valley of the Moon Fiddle Camp, and this will be his
only solo concert in the Bay Area!� If you saw Tony backing up Brian
McNeill and Natalie MacMaster on the Celtic Fiddle Festival tour, then
you have a small taste of Tony's prowess.� However, he's truly amazing
as a soloist.

Sunday, Sept 20:		Steve Tilston.			
One of England's finest singer/songwriters and guitarists.� Steve has
been one of the most respected members of the English folk scene over
the past 20+ years, and is truly an amazing performer.� He's written a
number of songs that have pretty much slipped into the tradition -
most notably "Slip Jigs and Reels," covered by both Fairport
Convention and the House Band amongst others.� Fairport has now
recorded 3 of his songs, and he's also had songs covered by the likes
of Peter Bellamy.� He's performed as a member of John Renbourn's Ship
of Fools, as a soloist, and as a duo with Maggie Boyle.� This will be
a solo tour with his first Northern California performance in over 10
years.� Definitely a show not to be missed!� Further details on Steve

Sunday, Oct 4:			Chris Sherburn & Denny Bartley.		
One of the hottest young Irish music duos around, with concertina,
guitar, and vocals.� Chris hails from England, Denny from Ireland, and
together they perform everything from instrumentals at breakneck speed
to terrific songs!� This is their first trip to the West Coast, amidst
their 250+/year concert and festival schedule.� Further details on
Chris Sherburn and Denny Bartley are at:

Sunday, October 18:		Anne Lister.
Another fine singer/songwriter from England.� Anne is perhaps better
known as a songwriter than as a performer, but she's out to remedy
that!� She started off her career performing with Martin Simpson and
Mary McLaughlin, subsequently forming the group Anonyma with Mary.�
She's written songs that have been covered by Nic Jones, Archie
Fisher, Martin Simpson, Artisan, Carla Sciaky, Grace Griffith, and Bob
Zentz among others.� She's also a superb storyteller!� She has just
released her 4th solo album, probably her best yet.� It's a real
pleasure to have her touring in the US again.� Further details on Anne
Lister are at:

Sunday, Nov 15: 		Tom Lewis.
Originally from Ireland, now from Salmo, BC (by way of Halifax, NS!),
Tom Lewis is widely regarded as one of the best singers of sea
shanties and sea songs anywhere!� Tom performs some traditional
material, some contemporary material from other artists, and writes
many of his own songs.� No matter which, he's great!� Come prepared to
sing along!� Further details on Tom Lewis are at:
