JIM PETRIE
Both self-taught and classically trained Jim is a guitarist who sings and writes songs about longing, love and loss, family, bad luck and good times in a style that is familiar yet his own. Inspired by a range of musical genres from Americana, folk and folk rock, country and bluegrass to the blues, Jim’s thoughtful lyrics, tuneful melodies, graceful guitar playing and soothing voice linger in the mind long after the final note has sounded. After years of musical dormancy he now pursues a creative life and is doing what he’s always loved the most – writing and performing. Based in New York City’s lower east side he appears regularly in numerous venues around town.
RICHARD STEIN
Richard’s recent one man show, CUT+PASTE-A MUSICAL MEMOIR,at LaMama’s downtown experimental theater, with original incidental music written by Richard, was a sellout success. The show emphasized a life that he has tap-danced with the world of style since his early teens.
CHARLOTTE FARRELL
