An Evening with Loren Davidson and Friends October 6, 2007

Renaissance Island Music presents An Evening with Loren Davidson and Friends, a musical journey and tropical party, on Saturday October 6 at 8 PM, at Mission City Coffee Roasters, 2221 The Alameda, Santa Clara CA. Escape from your stress and enjoy this Cure for the Common Cubicle. Admission $10.

Compared to artists like Jimmy Buffett, John Prine, and Dan Fogelberg, “Escape Artist” Loren Davidson’s musical art will encourage you to escape from whatever’s been stressing you – jobs, traffic, cold weather. He is known all around the Bay Area for creating music that makes the listener feel as if the palms are swaying, the tropical breezes are filled with the scent of mangos and coconuts, and the cares of the world have melted away. His songs of love, life, interesting people and warm places are part Mardi Gras and part mini-vacation.

Joining Loren for this one of a kind musical party:

“Gypsy” Jack Van Breen has been an active participant in the local music scene for longer than many area residents have been breathing. But that doesn't prevent him from an amazing amount of musical enthusiasm that provides the color and flame to the Silicon Valley Houserockers sound. His musical experiences range from 20's rag time to Monster Metal, with double stops at many places in between.

Kathleen Nelson’s styles on piano encompass classical, jazz, Broadway, Reggae, gospel, opera and pop. She made her European debut in 1996 in Vienna and has recorded a cd of classical piano pieces, “Invitation.” After nine years absence, she has returned to music, reinventing herself as a singer/songwriter.

Individually and together, these talented individuals will weave a musical tapestry that will take you to far-away lands and to places as familiar as your own heart, and help you have a whole lotta fun doing it.
