Join us Friday December 06, 2024 (Saint Nicholas Day)

7 PM (doors open at 6:00)  – John Depew

LIVE in Person and only on Saint Nicholas Day

Come celebrate Saint Nicholas Day with special music guest John Depew.

Musician John Depew lives his life as a father, husband and gardener. In a home that is heated with wood, he is also mastering splitting and stacking firewood, which he says is “one of the best things a person can do with a winter afternoon.”

It is in this setting that Depew writes and creates music. Depew’s earliest memories involve music while playing instruments on the porch with his dad in the evenings.

Such intimacy is what Depew achieves with his latest release of songs. At first one may want to say the songs are simple and straightforward as an Americana song seems. But the complex layers of Depew’s music subtly unfold. The lyrics are often haunting and longing, guided by the mastery of instruments. The beauty and hardship of life weave together in each piece. I really enjoyed listening on a poetic level, the writing, and story that carries the song, combined with the pleasure of the music itself.

Price is $10- $20 suggested and encouraged (all door proceeds go to the musician)
