A Night of Music & Reflection with Bill Deasy

Local songwriter, musician and novelist BILL DEASY will perform songs from his brand new release "Timeless Things." Bill will also discuss inspiration and how it shapes and compels his creative process.

He calls to mind Paul Westerberg and many of the finest rock songwriters who mix poetry and drunken bluster, yet somehow sound macho and sensitive at the same time...
