JOANNA LOWE
Actor, producer, spoken word artist and master of the fine art of putting the house band to work, Joanna Lowe (https://www.facebook.com/joannalowespokenword/) recently declared that her material can be divided into the two categories of either 'Sad' or 'Sticky' - she will leave you dabbing away tears with a handiwipe.

HENRY JAMISON
We are pleased to welcome Akira Records (https://www.facebook.com/AkiraRecords/) artist Henry Jamison (https://www.facebook.com/henrymosesjamison/) as our featured performer. These songs (on his release 'The Rains EP) show a central interest in exploring inner worlds, observing their treasures and holding none in contempt. They run the gamut from an earnest reckoning with romantic upheaval ("Real Peach"), to a knee-jerk and distorted view of the same ("Through a Glass"), to storm-driven dreamscapes ("The Rains" and "Dallas Love Field"). Finally, in "No One Told Me," Henry stands metaphorically on his own "Galleons Lap" (the summit where Christopher Robin says Goodbye-for-Now to the Hundred Acre Wood in A.A. Milne's House at Pooh Corner) and looks out, with a newfound composure born of relationship, to the horizon of the Who-Knows-What that is the life of a musician. http://www.henryjamison.com/ (https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.henryjamison.com%2F&h=ATOsPsdcTsj1pzBVdL6h4o3EAiuP_pjiEAx2iew9BnVPZaLAlIgBiAtf5WLKcQDIiAhqzsV-QJ4i3LSjX4QfobJmr0ysHbiCaHgBCaimflawtuiPXEvUsa40JernlcNBEUGwV1hI&enc=AZOwht3-aAc7CaQ5s9Q-CPmARZiOwzADZZCuovQjMS1_4ZRtRBpsNW7MSyHRTfwpMtU&s=1)
