BOSCAWEN'S HIGH STREET COFFEE HOUSE FEATURING COSY SHERIDAN, 7PM FRIDAY MAY 3
Join us at 7PM on Friday, May 3rd at Boscawen’s High Street Coffee House as we welcome Cosy Sheridan, our feature musician, followed by a full line up of open mic musicians, comedians and poets. Cosy Sheridan has been called one of the era’s finest and most thoughtful songwriters, and also ‘a buddhist monk trapped in the body of a singer-songwriter’. Her music regularly tops the folk radio charts and her most recent CD, Pretty Bird, was listed among Sing Out Magazine’s Great CDs of 2014. Her concerts are wide-ranging explorations of ragtime guitar and social satire, modern renditions of mythology (meet Hades the Biker) and tales of modern adulthood. The Cornell Folksong Society wrote, “Sheridan is frank, feisty, sublimely and devilishly funny. She fuses myth with modern culture; Persephone with Botox”. To learn more about the talents of Cosey Sheridan, visit her website at Cosy Sheridan.
