Being dubbed the “New Bob Dylan” after your first recording can be both a blessing and a curse. Yet, with a career spanning over three decades and 20 albums, Wainwright has proved himself to be a lasting presence through his satirical and socially conscious music. An accomplished actor and singer/songwriter, Wainwright is one of the more enduring personalities in folk music. Special guest Walter Parks, formerly of the duo The Nudes, brings his eclectic jazz, blues, folk sound fresh off touring with Richie Havens.

Patty Larkin will take you on a journey. As displayed on her recent release Regrooving the Dream, Larkin intimately sings of varied characters who discover passion and beauty amidst change through a soundscape of musical genres that only Larkin can best blend together. The musical voyage continues with David Wilcox-whose voice the Los Angeles Times called “comforting, James Taylor-like” when delivered through songs that “probe scenarios with emotion.”
*A pre-show performance by Cleveland Heights musician Charlie Mosbrook will begin in the lobby at 7:15 p.m. |

The award-winning duo of Keith Grimwood and Ezra Idlet, who stand 5’5” and 6’9” respectively, appear mismatched at first. But a closer listen reveals tight musicianship and charming lyrics that showcase their irresistible humor and intelligence. Billboard hails TFIA as a “rare mix of musicianship, humor and inspiration (with) impeccable dual lead vocals.” The special guest is Vance Gilbert, an ex-jazz singer with a voice that's equally as moving as his soul-stirring songwriting.
*A pre-show performance by Lakewood singer/songwriter Alexis Antes will begin in the lobby at 7:15 p.m. |

Many first learned of Alison Brown through her work with Alison Krauss and Union Station. But now the recipient of her own Grammy Award®, Alison Brown has earned the spotlight as a banjo player with an international reputation by pushing the instrument out of its familiar Appalachian settings and into new musical territory. Brown’s jazzy, bluegrass sound is accompanied by a country western influence that has earned her rave reviews and seen her play beside the likes of Vince Gill, Bela Fleck, Sam Bush and others.
