[JakeShows] Opening for Christine Lavin in CT on Sunday, plus a house show in Providence

[Jacob Haller]

As mentioned in the last newsletter, these are both shows I’ve really been looking forward to for a while!  Christine Lavin is always great, and the house show is in a really nice venue and I hope we have a nice little crowd for that one.  Knitters and knitting are welcome at both shows. :-)

Here’s a video of me singing a goofy song about Willimantic, Connecticut to promote the shows:

Hope to see you soon!


Sunday September 16 — OPENING FOR CHRISTINE LAVIN
-------------------
WHEN: 4 pm
WHERE: The Bread Box, St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 220 Valley Street, Willimantic, CT
COVER: $25

The Bread Box is a converted church with wonderful acoustics; they raise money for the Covenant Soup Kitchen & Emergency Food Pantry by putting on shows. I’m very pleased to have been asked to play a show there. You can find more information about the Bread Box at http://breadboxfolk.org/ .

I’ll be playing around a 25 minute set, opening for Christine Lavin, a great and hilarious singer/songwriter who, if you haven’t ever been to one of her shows, I would just say not to pass this one up! Here’s one of her songs:

Thursday September 27
---------------------
WHEN: 6:45-9:45 pm
WHERE: 46 Underground Providence, write to 46UndergroundPVD at gmail.com for the address
COVER: $10

My friend Annie has long been a supporter of the Rhode Island music scene, and a few months ago started putting on a series of house shows in her basement. It’s a wonderful, intimate performance space; I’ve been to a few shows there, and have always had a good time. I think it would be nice to get together a good crowd for this show, and I’m hoping you can make it!

There is an optional potluck starting at 6:45 or 7 pm, and the music usually starts at 7:30 pm or shortly thereafter.


So long,
Jacob Haller
