January 8, Friday, 7:30 pm, $10 Songwriter's Circle with Gale Gardiner, Eric Paradine and Bonnie Lee Panda Acoustic Folk - Americana - Roots Music A TRIO OF TALENT!!About Gale-I have been to some of Gale's concerts, and enjoyed the shows tremendously - and now I'm happy to own Gale most recent CD. This is an interesting, unique and thought provoking collection of songs. Gale's fine voice is so enjoyable, expressive, and well suited to the excellent songs she has written, and covers. I love it when Gale hits those high notes - and all the other ones too. Add to that her creative instrumental work, and the result is a truly enjoyable CD to be played again and again. author: John Gregory Marlboroughwww.myspace.com/fortunesgale About Bonnie Lee: The voice of an angel, songs that soar...She naturally combines that genre with others like blues and folk, making them her own. Embracing her passion for songwriting and performing, her songs reflect on spirituality, love, family, recovery, everyday humor, finding ones truth and enjoying lifes journey.Bonnie Lee Panda is drawn to the familyoriented, storytelling, rootsy "Americana" tradition of country "A serene calm comes over her when Bonnie Lee picks up her guitar, and a rich, classically trained voice flows from deep within her soul (Becker, Cheshire Herald). About Eric:"I'm influenced by everything it seems. Stuff I didn't pay any mind to ten years ago... I like now. Folk music for example. I was a die hard Jimi fan. Now, it's all about finger picking... Travis and otherwise. Learning to find my voice. I had an epiphany watching Willie Nelson sing to 15,000 people like he was singing to one person in the comfort of his/her livingroom. Sing to the back of the room without sounding like it."www.Myspace.com/ericparadinewww.myspace.com/fortunesgale www.cdbaby.com/cd/galebgardiner2 www.bonnieleepanda.com/
