Anthony daCosta | Raina Rose
 
Friday, June 14, 2013   8:00 PM   ($15/$18)
In 2007, at 16, Anthony daCosta became the youngest winner ever at the Falcon Ridge and Kerrville Folk Festivals. Later he was named an MSNBC.com “Top 5 Up-&-Coming Young Singer” and a “WFUV-FM New Artist To Watch”. He has played Kerrville, Falcon Ridge, and Philadelphia Folk Festivals; showcased at SXSW and Tin Pan South, and opened for such music icons as Loretta Lynn, Judy Collins, Suzanne Vega, and Dan Bern. He released three critically-acclaimed albums, and recently completed his latest album, a rock/Americana effort called Secret Handshake. It was recorded in Brooklyn and features a slew of wonderful NYC musicians.
As the second daughter of a country music historian and a Jewish poet, Raina Rose revels in sharing with you her beautifully twisted, yet refreshingly optimistic perspective on the world. Her unique voice and exceptional guitar playing transcend age, gender, generation, and even catch the ears of those who aren't typically into acoustic guitar-driven songwriting. With a naturalist's eye, an artist's pen, and a lion's attack, Raina lays everything she has on the line; she makes you feel as if she's your best friend whispering a honeysuckle-sweet secret in your ear, warmly inviting you into a joyfully intimate and darkly candid conversation.

Tom Prasada-Rao is a musician's musician - an unassuming presence on the folk scene since the early nineties. His voice belies his musicianship and his extraordinary songs. From Rishi’s Garden with it’s homage to Ravi Shankar to the groove of Sleeping Beauty , Tom’s music is melodic, ambitious, and reverent. He's starting to tour again and was featured on the nationally syndicated TV show Troubadour Texas. In the fall of 2007 Tom quit the road to produce records, raise two stepdaughters, and walk a rather large Golden Doodle named Thurman twice a day. In addition to producing, he took a job teaching music at White Rock Montessori in Dallas - TPR was formerly the songwriting teacher at The University of Virginia’s Young Writer’s Workshops - where he created the songwriting curriculum and taught for eight years.

Yes, she’s been on The Voice, but we all knew that Rebecca was cool long before that. With a powerful, wide-ranging voice, sharp lyrics, lilting melodies, and effervescent personality, she’s a star in anyone’s book.
