Presented in collaboration with the Long Island Blues Society
Continuing our tradition of introducing Caf audiences to
outstanding artists from Canada, we are pleased to welcome Bill Bourne,
multiple Canadian Juno Award nominee and winner. Bill's music is hard to
classify, since he draws heavily upon the blues and folk traditions,
but also incorporates reggae, Cajun and other influences. His is known
for his extensive collaboration with other artists and for this Caf
debut, he brings with him the Free Radio Band which includes Bill on
acoustic guitar and vocals, his son Pat on lead guitar, Pa Joe on

Blackie and the Rodeo Kings
Sunday, November 20th at 2 P.M.
These three Canadian musicians, Colin Linden, Stephen
Fearing and Tom Wilson, all well-established artists on their own,
formed B&RK as a tribute to Canadian songwriter Willie P. Bennett.
The group has evolved into one of North America's finest roots-oriented
bands and is now in its second decade, with a Juno award and several
Juno nominations to its credit.
B&RK amazed the Caf audience in 2008 with an
unforgettable performance, reminiscent of The Band and other groups.
B&RK will be playing some of their classic songs as well as songs
from their new CD, KINGS & QUEENS, which features them collaborating
with Rosanne Cash, Emmylou Harris, Lucinda Williams and eleven other
prominent female singers. (www.BlackieandtheRodeoKings.com)

Ellis Paul
Sunday, December 4th at 2 P.M.
Ellis' annual visit to the Caf. Last year's sold-out
performance by Ellis was incredible, so we expect an equally memorable
afternoon. He stands at the very top of the contemporary acoustic music
world bridging the gulf between the contemporary folk sound and the
populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and others. From his emergence on
the Boston folk scene, he has won a devout following for his
well-crafted songs and his passionate, energetic stage presentation.
For this visit to the Caf, expect Ellis to share some
great new songs, some outstanding covers of songs of others he holds
formative for him, and a couple of songs for the holiday season. And of
course, audience favorites from Ellis' many albums.
An Ellis Paul concert is a special event and we are
delighted to have him make the University Cafe home for his yearly visit
to Long Island. (www.EllisPaul.com)
Opening for Ellis is Peyton Tochterman. (www.peytontochterman.com)
