"SHOW ONLY" TICKETS AVAILABLE ONLINE; FOR DINNER RESERVATIONS, PLEASE CALL – ONLY A LIMITED NUMBER OF TABLES AVAILABLE
Livingston Taylor, one of the most distinctive singer-songwriters of the last thirty+ years, embodies both down-home sensibility as well as urban sophistication. Taylor is a throwback to the roots of folk singing: the back porch storyteller, invoking the historical lessons of earlier generations and a lifetime of experiences to the wonderment of a transfixed audience. As a member of one of the most successful and renowned musical families since the Von Trapps, Livingston has taken what could be considered a tremendous burden, and transposed it into a lifetime of personal artistic success & accomplishment. To see him and to hear him play is to be welcomed into Liv's musical home. So, pull up a chair and settle back with Livingston Taylor's music & stories at the Towne Crier Cafe!
Buzz Turner plays contemporary acoustic fingerstyle guitar ... no words, just music. Buzz fuses traditional western European structure with American musical idioms: blues, jazz and rock merge with Celtic, Latin and world influences to produce compositions that alternate between soft, delicate fingerstyle passages and up-tempo displays of virtuosity.
A self-taught guitarist schooled in garage bands, Buzz played colleges, clubs, coffeehouses and concerts for several years before hanging up music for a day job in broadcast engineering and audio for film/video production. Fast-forward to 1999 when a week at a workshop for fingerstyle guitarists invigorated and inspired Buzz to return to performing. Since then he has shared his original compositions and impressive technique with appreciative audiences throughout the United States. Along the way he's garnered strong press, a first place award from the International Acoustic Music Awards and syndicated national airplay.
Listening to his recordings or attending a live show makes it all clear: Buzz Turner is a guitarist who plays strong compositions with a focus on melody and tone filled with honesty, humor and heartfelt joy.
