PAYPAL TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE FOR ALL SHOWS April 25 Mustard’s Retreat Opener: John Fuzek For more than 30 years, Mustard’s Retreat (David Tamulevich & Michael Hough) has been entertaining audiences with its special brand of folk music. Highly acclaimed as not only songwriters, but as interpreters of traditional and contemporary songs and stories, their show is full of enthusiasm, good humor and fine musicianship. They are wonderfully unafraid to get silly with their audience, spinning out smartly goofy parodies, too-tall tales of wily rabbits and stupid frogs, hard-traveling cadavers and marauding techno-nerds. Come to Stone Soup for a truly wonderful musical experience. Sunday, May 3 4:00PM Stone Soup Presents The Second Annual Rhode island Idol Tickets: $10.00 Apart from the similarity in name with television’s version of the show, the Rhode Island Idol is not a beauty contest for the “twenty-something” only performer. Musicians, Singers & Songwriters of all ages compete at Open Mikes throughout the state of Rhode Island for the opportunity to appear at the Rhode Island Idol Finals at Stone Soup Coffeehouse. There will be a very special guest MC and a panel of local judges for this event. The result is an evening rich in diversity of musical styles, with amazing performances by the best Rhode Island artists. May 9 Roy Book Binder A student and friend of the Rev. Gary Davis, Roy Book Binder is a blues guitar entertainer. Equally at home with blues and ragtime, “Book” shifts from open tunings to slide arrangements to original compositions with both traditional and self-styled licks. His storytelling emphasis is another characteristic that makes his style unique. Mixing stories of the great bluesmen he has known with songs that emphasize his points, he keeps his audiences well entertained. Roy has performed at most major blues and folk festivals in the U.S. and Europe, including Merlefest, and has been included in Sheldon Harris' book, The Blues Who's Who. Get your tickets early for this one, they’ll go fast! Adult Ticket: $16.00 through PayPal Child Ticket: $8.00 through PayPal Sunday, May 17 Second Annual Rent Party Tickets: $25 (Available only at the door) Special Venue: Doherty’s East Avenue Café Special Day and Time: Sunday; 3:00-7:00 The Stone Soup Rent Party is a great time to enjoy good food, meet and hang out with local musicians and Stone Soup volunteers, and to hear some fine music, of course. It’s also a great opportunity to help Stone Soup ‘pay the rent’ and keep great folk, blues, and other styles of music available most Saturday evenings from fall through spring in Rhode Island. Come on down and have a fun filled evening filled with special performances by several surprise Stone Soup favorites.
