Tim Fast
Friday May 24th
@ 8:00pm
$7 Cover
As a national touring finger-style guitar picking, harmonica bending, singer songwriter Tim Fast should by all rights be a household name. He has toured most the US performing his songs that have touched the hearts of his now many dedicated fans. Although being recognized with awards for performance and songwriting , sharing the magic of song is in his eyes is the supreme reward. Appearances on live radio performances, TV shows and radio airplay certainly means he is walking down a successful path. To his credit, 3 CD’s have been released and all have received awards for his excellent craft in his songs. Folk is just a general description for his music. Hints of blues and country come through his warm haunting vocal tone not labeling him in one single genre. Tim is the real deal as far as living the life of a singer songwriter in America today.
Canadian Multi-Juno Award Winning James Keelaghan quotes “Excellent songwriter, exquisite guitar player and and the sweetest voice I’ve heard in a long time”.
Red House Record Artist Cliff Eberhardt says” Tim Fast is one my favorite artists on the scene today”.

Scott is an internationally known composer, pianist and recording artist. He was up front when New Age was just beginning over 30 years ago and was one of the first Windham Hill Artists to join with founder Will Ackerman and Alex Degrassi, in their new label out of Palo Alto, California. Scott signed onl the same day as Michael Hedges and they both joined George Winston who was just new to the label himself. In those early days, Scott toured with his label mates as they forged the way for the many artists that would follow in that genre.
In addition to Scott on our parlor piano are
Van Manakas, acoustic & electric guitars, and Steve Banks, drums.
Tickets are only $10 for this stellar talent, Just show up for a treat of new age jazz.
