From my Friends Robin and Pam Luce and their ongoing Music Program:
Happy New Year! Back Porch music continues in the new year on Sat., Jan. 11 with scheduled performer Mel Sweet. Mel Sweet is one of the founding members of the ‘SweetWater Blues Band’ and is currently playing solo sets promoting the tradition of ‘American Roots Music with a Bluesy Attitude’. ‘SweetWater’ has played a number of area venues including ‘Little Bohemia, the Traverse City Film Festival, Rascal Jakk’s, and Red Mesa’. An evening with ‘SweetWater Blues’ is a tour of classic and contemporary blues music presented in the ‘SweetWater’ style. The sets are interspersed with original music as well as other classics in the ‘Rhythm & Blues’ tradition and maybe a story or two along the way. ‘SweetWater Blues’ hopes you will hear something you like and can take with you. The scheduled performer will play from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., then musicians will gather for a circle jam. Suggested donations at the door are $5 – $10- donations are for the scheduled performer(s). Soup, cookies, coffee and tea are available at no additional charge. Doors open by 6:30 p.m. This is a community event for all ages, held at the Charlevoix Senior Center building- at the corner of Carpenter and Sheridan streets- accessible building and parking.
