This concert will be a private one for those taking part in one of Gail Straub's fabulous retreats at the Holy Cross Monastery in West Park, NY.

This chapel is one of my favorites and I am delighted to have been asked to sing there again. And for those of you who don't know Gail and would like to do workshops on leadership and personal empowerment, google her and find out what she's up to. Remarkable woman!

There's a bridge called "Covert's Crossing" or "Covert's Bridge" up in New Castle. A young couple had gotten married on Halloween. Around midnight, they were riding in a horse drawn carriage across the bridge at the same time a car was. The bridge was only one lane, so by the time they saw each other it was too late. Story has it that they crashed and the hubcap of the car flew off, decapitating the bride. The police never found her head or the body of the groom. Its been said that if you sit on the bridge on Halloween night around midnight, you can see the headless bride standing on some rocks in the river. However they don't know if she is looking for her head or her lost love. HAPPY HALLOWEEN HE HE

I sing. I write songs. I play guitar. I'm a native New Yorker. I established myself as singer, songwriter and guitarist for Brooklyn's indie rockers, The Nerve! over it's 10 year career. I am now exploring the uncharted territory of a new solo career. I'm totally immersing myself in the New York scene, singing and playing just an acoustic guitar and harmonica almost every night of the week at various bars, cafes and cabarets all over town and out of town. You can also catch me on any given day busking underground in the New York City subway system. In November 2007 I received an artist grant from the Broken Wing Foundation.
