We sometimes refer to our genre as eclectic acoustic. \n \nRed Spruce and Adirondack Song Dogs will kick off each session with a few tunes then open the floor for musicians to lead their favorite bluegrass tunes and folk music\, backed up by the other pickers in the gathering. Simple tunes are always popular! So sharpen up your axe\, come prepared with your song\, and let us hear some good old fast\, high and lonesome\, some slow and low\, or a good old favorite. All are welcome! \n \nWhat is a Slow Jam? \n \nIt is a group of string instrument players and singers who get together to have fun making music. The “slow” modifier indicates that it is targeted to the following musicians: people who have been playing solo and want to get used to playing in a group setting: people who have just learned how to play and want to play with others; people who have instruments that have been gathering dust for a “few” years; experienced players who are trying out playing instruments other than their primary instrument; people who are comfortable playing their instrument but want to become more comfortable singing/leading a song.. The tunes are played at 80 to 110 BPM and usually in basic keys such a G\, A\, D\, C major\, but it always sounds great to play in some minor keys such as “a”\, “e”\, and “g”. We will try to avoid “jam busters.” It is our hope that after this experience you will feel more comfortable playing at the many open jams and open mics that can be found in our area. \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n \n	\n	\n						\n					Price\n					\n						General\n						$345.00\n					\n				\n			\n	 \n \n \n\n\n \n	\n		\n			Similar Events\n			\n				View All\n				\n			\n		\n				\n			\n				\n\n											\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Clawhammer Banjo with Carolyn Shapiro\n\n				American Roots Instructional\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			May 5 • 3 PM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Folk Club Kids\n\n				American Roots Bluegrass Celtic Family Folk\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			May 6 • 10:30 AM		\n	\n	\n\n\n\n						\n												\n							\n\n	\n		\n		Caffè Lena\n	\n\n		\n\n		Bluegrass Instrumental Course with Bruce Thompson and Sam Katz\n\n				Bluegrass Workshop\n		\n		\n			\n				\n								class\n			\n					\n\n		\n			May 6 • 5:45 PM

SUMMARY:Lucy Wainwright Roche

The daughter of Grammy-winner Loudon Wainwright III and beloved Roche sister Suzzy Roche\, Lucy grew up surrounded by harmony\, humor\, and the fierce honesty that defines her family’s music. Yet her path was far from predetermined. Before stepping into the songwriter’s life\, Lucy earned degrees in creative writing and education\, and taught elementary school in North Carolina and New York. \n \nIn 2007\, she made the leap into music full-time—and folk audiences have been grateful ever since. \n \nWith a crystal-clear voice\, disarming wit\, and an understated storytelling style that cuts straight to the heart\, Lucy has become one of the most compelling singer-songwriters of her generation. Her songs have appeared on television and film\, won the Independent Music Award for Best Folk/Singer-Songwriter Song\, and earned her recognition as an Emerging Artist at both Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and Kerrville Folk Festival. \n \nLucy has toured with—and been championed by—some of folk and Americana’s finest\, including the Indigo Girls\, Dar Williams\, Girlyman\, Amos Lee\, Neko Case\, Loudon Wainwright\, Rufus Wainwright\, and more. Whether performing solo or alongside her mother Suzzy or her extended Wainwright–McGarrigle musical family\, her performances are intimate\, warm\, funny\, and deeply human. \n \nAt Caffè Lena\, Lucy brings a career-spanning set of songs filled with vulnerability\, sharp insight\, and the wry humor the Wainwrights are known for. Expect an evening of luminous vocals\, gorgeous acoustic arrangements\, and storytelling that feels like sitting with an old friend who sees the world clearly—and sings about it beautifully. \n \nSAMPLE SONG \n \nDon’t miss this rare chance to experience Lucy Wainwright Roche up close in an intimate listening room that’s been part of her family’s musical story for generations. \n \nStream this show live at Caffè Lena TV.
