| Monday Sep 20th @ 6pm Tagawa at Natasha's: Jazz Piano with Melodica Solo | |
 |
Join us for the smooth sounds of Jazz Pianist and composer Kokichi Tagawa. A night with Ko Tagawa...seems at first, like a traditional night of Jazz, of beautiful standards, Cole Porter, Jerome Kern... soft...evocative...a gentle Journey back to a simpler time... But, when he starts to close his eyes, the transformation begins, and you realize that subtly, so subtly that the terrain has changed, that the melody with all its familiarity is gone, and the gentle pianist has taken you to a place you've never been. He has, once again, drawn you in - and Its no longer Porter or Kern, but Tagawa - unleashed - www.myspace.com/kou61jazz Donations accepted. |

| Monday Sep 20th @ 8:30pm Ronnie King | |
 |
Original songs, with a folky/grassy feel. Ronnie recorded and performed with "New River Line" from 2002- 2006, an original bluegrass band he co-founded in Kentucky. It was during this time in which Ronnie began his songwriting, contributing many originals to NRL's first two projects, one of which "My Brother Paul" earned runner up in the 2007 Chris Austin Songwriting contest at the annual MerleFest festival in Wilkesboro, NC. Ronnie left NRL in 2007 to pursue solo interest in other genres such as folk and rock, devoting his time to a song writing journey in multiple paths. His songwriting is emotionally intense with socially relevant material, and ranges from controversial subjects such as poverty, drug abuse, and politics to memories of home, thoughts of freedom, love, and social responsibility. www.myspace.com/ronnieking123 |

| Tuesday Sep 21st @ 9pm Saint Bernadette | |
 |
Led by femme fatale vocalist Meredith DiMenna, the quintet offers a boozy, erotically charged aural accord that meshes a disparate template of psychedelic-meets-arena rock, with a peppering of jazz, all candy-coated with sing-along choruses. "sweet as an angel and edgy as hell" --BUST www.myspace.com/saintbernadette |
