Churchill's Open Mic 5/11/2010

Last Tuesday at Churchill's Bar & Grill was just an amazing night of music.  We opened the evening with Justus taking the featured slot.  Tim Jewell and Dirk Hetrick play a diverse array of classic rock and country songs.



We started off the off the Open Mic with a new comer to Churchill's, Jake Honeycutt, who gave us some nice country covers.



Randy Soffar took the stage next and rocked the house with some of his original music. He also invited The Revernd Doctor Otis Futhermucker up to help him out.



Ira Perez joined us for the second time at Churchill's. Ira is an incredibly talented performer and song writer.  You WILL hear more about this young woman.  Mark my words! 






Don and Jake were back at Churchill's this week for their second appearance at Open Mic.  This night they hooked up with Kevin on the Stand Up Bass and Chris Mitchell on Soprano Saxophone.





John P Barton took the stage next and shared some of his originals and a cover with us.  Wayne Lacey joined him on the Djembe, and yours truly played a little harmonica with him.




Amy Waters was a new act to Churchill's stage, and only here second open mic ever.   She just picked up a guitar about four months ago and is already confident enough to get out to the open mics.  She did a fantastic job.




Stephen Daly took the stage next and threw down an excellent performance of classic rock and blues.  Stephen invited Chris Mitchell to join him with some Saxophone on a song, and Otis Futhermucker blew his fine harp for one song.



"Little Terry" Rogers has become a regular performer at Churchill's Open Mic.  He sings and plays some excellent blues harmonica.  He brought Otis Futhermucker up to accompany him on guitar as well as Kevin with his stand up bass.





We ended the list with none other than Coco of Coco and the Players.  He gave us an excellent selection of songs and got a little help from Otis Futhermucker on harmonica.






It was quite an evening of music indeed, and I'd like to thank each and everyone of you for your support of live music and open mics.
