Singer-songwriter

Some people can sing, some can write songs, and some can do both.

We have some great singer/songwriters in our fair city. Some of our favorites were raised here and others moved here after a career in music or something more conventional. Here's the thing, they all know that you go out to hear familiar songs, so they play great covers—very well. However, when you ask a local about their favorite local musician, chances are we'll name one of these singer/songwriters. Don't miss them and please ask to hear an original.
