Christine Lavin concert October 6, 2006

Christine Lavins witty songs, hilarious on-stage presentation and irreverent attitude have enlivened the folk scene for more than 20 years. She returns to the Williamsburg Library Theatre on Friday, October 6 at 7:30 p.m. to perform as part of the Dewey Decibel Concert Series.

Abundantly clever and unabashedly fond of a good laugh, Christine Lavin (pronounced with a long "a") has become the wry musical voice of the post-Boomer, pre-Gen X generation. Lavin is widely known as the impresario behind the feisty, folky, femmes fatales, Four Bitchin' Babes. Known for her comic delivery and often-hilarious lyrics that ring true with life experiences, Christines draw is her ability to turn her own autobiographic storytelling into songs that anyone can relate to. The Boston Globe says of Christine, "She has become the classic American troubadour. People find their lives in her songs."

Christine is a five-time winner of ASCAP awards, a two-time New York Music Award winner, a winner of the NAIRD (National Association of Independent Record Distributors) Award and a winner of the Kate Wolf Memorial Award given to musicians who capture the spirit and art of the late singer-songwriter.

Christine recently released her 17th album, a collection of songs about food called "One Meat Ball," featuring food-related songs performed by Pete Seeger, Tom Paxton, Julie Gold, Doc Watson and actor Jeff Daniels, among others. Christine is also an avid knitter who invites fellow knitters to show up early and knit with her in the lobby before the show
