MINDY SMITH
With opening performance by Erick Baker
Friday, October 16, 2009 8:00pm
Doors open 7:15pm
Tickets: $14 advance / $16 day of show / $5 student with ID / $120 reserved table for 8 (sales tax included)
Few singers are better prepared than Mindy Smith to sing convincingly about a wide range of emotions. Her pure, unaffected soprano illuminates her words and sentiments - even when it seems as if she is singing for just herself. Her performances feel effortless as she steps up to the microphone.
It is a challenge to classify Smith's musical style, but Americana with a twist come relatively close. Her recent CD, Stupid Love, reflects Smith's diverse personal tastes. Some arrangements incorporate banjo or slide guitar; others are graced with strings, and there are rock influences as well. Says Smith of her music that comes from the heart in her recent CD, 'Everything here is definitely from my personal experience. Heartbreak, healing, all that stuff
it's all legit.' And you can hear that honesty in every note she sings.

Advance Ticket Purchase STRONGLY Suggested For These Extremely Popular Tours
The 1920s were about a lot more than flappers and the Charleston. The country and Cedarburg were struggling with the challenges of illness and epidemics, social issues, and technological changes that would change the way people lived and survived. Take a peek into the dark past to see what is uncovered during this year's popular Gothic History Tour.
The 90-minute walking tours through the Cedarburg National Historic District take place rain or (moon) shine. Dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. Tour group sizes are limited and tour groups are pre-assigned (let the Center know if you want to be in the same group as family and/or friends.).
The sixth Gothic History Tour is supported by Legacy Scrapbooks in Cedarburg, Lori's Costume Shop in West Bend, Frenz Market and Garden Center in Thiensville, Noelle's Bake Shoppe & Cupcakery in Cedarburg, The Washington House Inn, Cedar Creek Settlement, Cream & Crepe Cafe in the Settlement, City of Cedarburg, City of Cedarburg Parks & Recreation Department, and the Cedarburg Fire Department.

THE HOMEMADE JAMZ' BLUES BAND featuring Ryan, Kyle & Taya Perry
Thursday, October 29, 2009 7:00pm
Doors open 6:15pm
Sponsored by Best Western Quiet House & Suites in Mequon
Tickets: $16 advance / $18 day of show / $5 student with ID / $135 for reserved table of 8 (sales tax included)
You are invited to the metropolitan Milwaukee area premiere of The Homemade Jamz' Blues Band featuring siblings Ryan (age 16-vocals, guitars), Kyle (age 13-bass) and Taya (age 9-drums, backing vocals) Perry. The trio exudes nothing but confidence and attitude as they sing of betrayal, love, and hard times as if they've lived a life rich in strife.
Homemade Jamz won the 3rd annual MS Delta Blues Society of Indianola's Blues Challenge in 2006 and were the youngest band ever to compete in the International Blues Challenge in 2007 taking 2nd in a field of 157 bands. The event judge was Fred Litwin, president of esteemed label NorthernBlues Music, who made them the youngest blues band to sign with a major label. True to their name, the band recorded Pay Me No Mind at home, over three days in January 2008.
The band has performed throughout the country, up and down Memphis' famed Beale Street and on the festival and blues cruise circuit. They have appeared numerous times in local papers and national blues magazines, and on local and national television - including a feature segment on CBS Sunday Morning when the band had played the WC Handy Festival.
Homemade Jamz' Blues Band was named 2008 Blues New Artist of the Year by the Bay Area Blues Society in Oakland, California and was honored as the youngest nominees ever for a Blues Music Award in 2009.

TANGLEWEED
Saturday, April 17, 2010 8:00pm
Doors open 7:15pm
Tickets: $14 advance / $16 day of show / $5 student with ID / $120 reserved table of 8 (sales tax included)
Tangleweed is a band of five forward-thinking musical reactionaries from Chicago, Illinois. While the band's instrumentation is standard bluegrass, their music is anything but. With a repertoire both broad and deep, one listener described them as sounding like 'a band playing on a pirate ship off the coast of New Orleans in the 1920s.'
The group has stayed true to its roots while evolving and expanding its repertoire over the years. The group's first CD, Just a Spoonful (and Other Folksongs of Rural Cook County), was recorded in a makeshift studio with vintage analog equipment and a setup modeled after the early field recordings that inspired the band. Their second CD, Where You Been So Long, retained their live energy while covering a broader swath of American music with original songs mixed with classic bluegrass, old-time country, Irish fiddle tunes, rockers, and mountain music. The third and most recent CD, Most Folk Heroes Started Out as Criminals, retains 100% acoustic instrumentation, but is varied with the addition of the erhu, autoharp, tenor guitar, and accordion. The result is the representation of the past and future of string band music.
Tangleweed combines high-energy performances with impeccable musicianship and a wide breadth of influences to create a unique sound that is simultaneously modern and old-timey. The band has been hailed in reviews worldwide as a welcome breath of fresh air for lovers of stomping string band music and high lonesome harmonies.
