Folkus Fans!
This Friday, March 21, at 8 o'clock, MICHAEL JERLING performs at May
Memorial.
Quirky, clever, and always surprising songwriting
Michael Jerling plays an artful mix of blues, traditional and
contemporary folk songs, jazz-flavored folk and country-folk. A keen
student of the good and ghastly in American life, Jerling weaves
themes like a novelist -- sort of like a musical version of Richard
Russo (Empire Falls, Nobody's Fool). He evokes our shortcomings and
dreams without yielding to cynicism or sentimentality. His live shows
are buoyed by his sharp sense of humor, his first-rate lyrical sense,
and impressive musicianship. His smooth baritone voice is backed up
with consummate skill on six and twelve string guitars, harmonica and
mandolin.
Gosh, it's nice to know you'll be coming! -- drop us an email or give
a call and we'll save the seats up front for you! email
tickets at folkus.org or call 315-440-7444 and tell us your name and how
many seats to hold.
This is the music we love! This is who we are!

Community Relations and Partnerships
The Folkus Project is looking for a Volunteer to help establish and
maintain relationships with other organizations in CNY that might
benefit from or share an interest in Folkus programming. Folkus is
attempting to create cross-programming and cross-promotion
opportunities with arts organizations, schools, churches, and any
other cultural or educational groups that might wish to partner with
Folkus in such efforts. The ideal volunteer will have an
entrepreneurial spirit in identifying such opportunities, and an ease
with contacting such organizations and establishing a relationship.
If you think you might be interested, e-mail volunteer at folkus.org.
Thanks. Volunteering with Folkus is a rewarding, life-altering
experience (plus you get into the concerts for free!).
