Show Description

"You only have to listen to a few seconds of Kristin Diable's 'Sister Sadie' to hear that she sings songs that have roots in the blues, folk, and soul. Just 22, Kristin's been writing her own songs for about six years now. Her songwriting and performing is strong enough to have established her as one of New York City's more promising young artists."
- Voice of America



Just over two years ago Baton Rouge, Louisiana native Kristin Diable dropped her life in the swamps to test out fresher waters in New York City and judging by her standing room only shows throughout the city, she made the right choice.



Gary Lucas has been called "The Thinking Man's Guitar Hero" (The New Yorker) and "One of the best and most original guitarists in America" (Rolling Stone). He is a Grammy-nomianted songwriter to boot, co-wrote Jeff Buckley's seminal classics "Grace" and "Mojo Pin", and leads the psychedelic supergroup Gods and Monsters. Tonight, Gary will play solo acoustic in a wide-ranging concert that displays his enormous stylistic palette and spans original songs to arrangements of everything from Chinese pop from the 1930's to Jacques Tati film themes, dark bottleneck blues, and compositions by Dvorak and Wagner. Gary will also collaborate with his co-headliner Kristin Diable on original songs they've recently co-written. His latest album is "Coming Clean" (Mighty Quinn) which has received 4 star rave reviews around the world.
