Salado Market Days

This unique monthly open-air market will be held at the downtown Salado Civic Center, and I will be the gal holding the guitar in the gazebo in the middle of it all. Old and new country, gospel, folk, originals . . . in a nutshell I'll be doing what I do and calling it Coffeehouse Country. Rain or shine. Free entrance, free convenient parking.

Salado, TX is 35 mi north of Austin on I-35.

Nov 15, 2009, Sunday, 8 pm, Writers Night Set. Somebody pinch me, but I got invited back to play at the famed Bluebird Cafe in Nashville, Tennessee! Partially because I didn't faint during my January debut there?

The MC is hilarious, the atmosphere and songs inspiring, and the night will wrap up before 10pm. I also learned in January that Sunday nights at the Bluebird get full full full! Get in line early or plan to attend the 6pm show prior. No cover, no reservations. If you sit at a table, there's a $7 food/drink minimum. Click image above to go to the Bluebird website.
