Streaming Tuesdays
Time: Tuesdays 7 PM to 8PM Eastern Time
Our Show: The pandemic forced us to learn how to stream shows directly from the performer's studio. It has proven to be such fun that we are going to keep doing it each Tuesday night.
Attendance is free. 100% of donations go to the Artists.
Sharon Klein is a veteran of the Greenwich Village folk scene and a staple of the Hudson Valley Americana circuit. A skilled finger-style guitarist and sharp lyricist, her songs blend edgy social commentary with emotional depth. She was music programmer and featured performer for 11 years at the prestigious Woodstock Invitational Luthier Showcase. Sharon landed a publishing deal in her early 20s with Burt Bacharach’s company and has had music featured everywhere from the Super Bowl to Saturday Night Live. She teaches songwriting at Bard’s Lifelong Learning Institute and shares her home with her partner, pets, and 11 guitars.
Dan Navarro is a celebrated singer-songwriter whose heartfelt songs and emotional performances have earned him a devoted following. Best known as half of the acclaimed duo Lowen & Navarro, he has continued a prolific solo career with a powerful voice and a deep well of original material. His songs mix folk, rock, and Americana in a way that always feels personal and true to life, with themes of resilience, love, and social awareness. In addition to his songwriting credits for artists like Pat Benatar (“We Belong”), Navarro is also known for his deeply moving live performances and commitment to the independent music community.
Jeff Cannon emerged as a national touring artist from the 1990s Boston folk scene. Jeff has worn many folk hats. In 1995 he was the opening manager of Cambridge’s Club Passim. In the early 2000’s he hosted “Folk from the Heartland” on WIUX.
Supported on record by a who’s-who of contemporary folk from Patty Griffin to Greg Greenway, Jeff continues to release music for the heart, most recently “High Tea for Poets” in 2023, and a #1 folk radio single, “Letter from a Groundhog.” These days Jeff is working on songs for a new musical, ”LP: A Radio Musical.”
A self-described “tree-hugger that watches NASCAR,” Grant Peeples is known for his axe-sharp socio-political tunes, raucous humor, and heart-gigging ballads.
He is the recipient of the Focus Foundation Award for Creative Excellence, which cited the “humor, compassion and wisdom of his songs,” and their “unflinching social insight and cultural acuity.” Grant tours coast to coast, and is a regular performer at The Woody Guthrie Folk Festival, the 30A Songwriters Festival, and The Florida, Folk Festival. January 2019 marked a second tour in The Netherlands, where FolkForum.nl described him “…a pure storyteller, in the best American folk tradition…” and his show “…one of those gems that you will remember for a long time…”
Bett Padgett is a master storyteller through music. She transcends conventional boundaries, setting her apart as a versatile musician. Renowned for her distinctive guitar techniques and unconventional tunings, she defies categorization, seamlessly transitioning between instruments such as the claw-hammer banjo, mandolin, piano, and harp. Her eclectic musical palette draws inspiration from Celtic, Old-time, New Age, Folk, and rock genres, resulting in a captivating and unique sound. Her last three albums garnered spots #4, 6 and 11 on the FAI’s Folk Music DJ charts.
Spencer LaJoye makes queer indie folk music for everyone — looping crystalline vocals over a weathered acoustic guitar with a wink, a story, and a whole lot of heart. A classically trained violinist with Broadway instincts and a theology degree on the wall, Spencer grew up leading worship in Southwest Michigan before coming out as nonbinary and finding peace as a post-Christian. Their music traces that journey — through disillusionment, discovery, and deep feeling.
Their viral anthem “Plowshare Prayer” and award-winning releases like Remember the Oxygen and Shadow Puppets have earned them national acclaim. Whether in a church, club, or backyard, Spencer’s performances are full of charm, candor, and the belief that art can change the world — simply by making us feel something.
