Perhaps not Lakewood, (for now) but music will be close by!

Post by Gary Rice »

This upcoming Wednesday, (19th) why not drop by Brothers Wine Room on Detroit Ave. just over the border, for a great 10x3 event, featuring some of Northeast Ohio's best known legendary Folk and Roots original music personalities. The event is supported by Brothers and by Cleveland's equally legendary Folknet roots music and dance organization.

A "10X3" essentially means that 10 individual singer/songwriter musicians will each perform 3 mostly original songs, each having around 15 minutes to do so.

From the historic days of La Cave, our Cleveland area had been a vibrant hotbed of acoustic singer-songwriter creativity and appreciation, and that tradition continues.

Festivities will be kicked off at 8 p.m. by Lakewood's very own singer-songwriter banjo player, me!

Another cool musical event this week is the monthly Acoustic Players Metroparks Song Circle, held this Saturday (22nd) at the Canalway Visitors Center from 1-3 p.m. The monthly theme for this week is "player's choice". Everyone from beginners to seasoned professionals have been known to drop by and lead a song for appreciative listeners.

By the way, we are looking for a home for a monthly sing-a-long song circle in the Lakewood area, if anyone has any suggestions. A place with an appreciative audience would make it even better.

Also, on Sunday, there will be a guitar show at the Richfield Days Inn on route 21, starting at about 10 a.m.. This is a friendly twice-yearly show and a fun place to find the old guitar of your dreams.

Hoping to see you at some of these events.

Back to the banjo... :D
