MONDAY AUG 11 - WYEP 91.3 & Straub Brewing Presents: AcoustiCafe Open Stage with host Erika June featuring Liz McBride!
THEME: "Give Up on Self-Limiting" ~ Erika writes: Yes, you CAN do that thing, and don't let your brain tell you otherwise! (caveat: as long as clothes stay on (in public))
Bonus points if you (as Erika did delightfully in her email) can use the word "Abstruse" at some point in your set.
ERIKA JUNE leads the bands Erika June & the Tunes and Working Breed, also leads horses to water and plays bowed saw and trombone for them.

LIZ McBRIDE is a singer / songwriter / guitarist with some of the coolest chord progressions and finger-picking patterns around - check out Liz's stuff at https://neighborhoodvoices.org/live-music-liz-mcbride-2
