When a living room becomes a concert hall! Jeremy Facknitz brings the magic to our house concert series, coming all the way from Colorado Springs in May. He has been delighting audiences with his unique brand of high-energy theatrical folk-rock-jazz for nearly 30 years. Heavily influenced by Ben Folds, Billy Joel, Elvis Costello, James Taylor, and the like, his music is a throwback to when singer-songwriters weren’t afraid to turn it up, look you in the eye, and play more than the same tired four chords. He embodies the soul of an old-time troubadour bitten by a radioactive rockstar. John Apice of “American Highways” says “This is all far above the ordinary…a good time is guaranteed for all.” John Barlass from “The Barrier” writes “Jeremy Facknitz is, indeed, a major talent – and, I can guarantee, like nothing you’ll have ever heard before.” **Come be dazzled by this multi-instrumentalist at our dessert and drink potluck! Please bring a dessert or beverage to share!** ***Details with our address and other info will be sent to you before May 16th.*** **Doors open at 7:00 pm. Music will begin \~7:45 pm.** **We kindly ask you leave your shoes at the door.** Wear your craziest socks to win a prize! Boring socks are...boring! :) **Suggested donation: $25-30/person (100% of all contributions are given directly to the musician) (Cash or Venmo)**
