January 1996 Postcrypt Schedule

Postcrypt Coffeehouse

January, 1996


FRIDAY, JANUARY 19

RICHARD JULIAN -- Richard Julian's music covers a wide range of influences, but keeps in the tradition of well-crafted songs with smart lyrics and real melodies. He is a fixture at the annual Fast Folk Revue at the Bottom Line, he has appeared at Nashville's respected Bluebird Cafe, and he has toured extensively in Switzerland and Italy.

SARAH GREENE -- Sarah creates a distinctive sound with her strong blues-oriented guitar work, haunting melodies, and stark lyrics. Sarah's jazz and blues playing echoes the past while pushing the limits of the genre. She has just released her debut album on the 1-800-PRIME CD label.

SWALES -- Celebrating the release of their second album "What's His Name," a fascinating collection of salt of the earth alternative pop music.
