Coming up from PocoNotes:

The FACES and VOICES of The Blues 

Friday, June 8, 2012 at 6:00pm - Sunday, June 10, 2012 at 4:00pm

 

Tripp Family Homestead

1011 North Main Avenue

Scranton, Pennsylvania

 

We are proud and honored to announce that we will be working with some good friends - and personal heroes - to bring you

"The FACES and VOICES of The Blues."

 

The photo exhibit will be the work of world-renowned Luzerne County resident, Jim Gavenus.	The storytelling and musical performance will be the mastery of the internationally-touring blues player and historian, Toby Walker.

 

 

The setting and stunning backdrop for all of this will be Lackawanna County's historic Tripp House, which is lovingly tended by Michael Gilmartin.

 

As the date draws closer, the details of this inaugural event - opening cocktail reception, guitar workshop/storytelling session, musical performance, photo exhibit and "meet and greet" with the artists - will be revealed.

 

It will be a tribute to the music...and those who have dedicated their lives to 'bringing it forward' for future generations to understand and appreciate.

 

When PocoNotes throws a party, everyone

has a great time!!!

Before some of our shows, aspiring guitar players and blues students were able to study with
top-level instructors Patrick Sweany, Toby Walker, Spencer Bohren and Roy Book Binder in workshops...

in which these masters gave a glimpse into how they do what they do and why they do it.  
Those who were lucky enough to attend the workshops will not forget the experience.

We've had an unbelievable series of concerts.  Our audiences are always
treated to very special performances in unique, intimate settings.

PocoNotes has promised...
To bring quality musical artists to Northeastern Pennsylvania,
To provide a comfortable environment in which to see and hear them
and...
To treat you and the artists with respect.
