May Showcase featuring:
Tom Bodine
Looking forward to my fourth (or fifth?)
showcase at the Folk Cub of Reston/Herndon, but the first since December 2015. I fortuitously stumbled upon the Folk Club back around 2005, during the Tortilla Factory Days, and it’s really changed my life. This kind and supportive community has provided an incredible opportunity to meet friends, grow as an artist, and connect with so many talented musicians, music lovers, and listeners.
