LIVE MUSIC JULY 24th

David Lindley
Eclectic American Roots
& Electro-Acoustic World Music

Friday - July 24, 2009
Show starts at 8PM (Come early for dinner!)

Multi-instrumentalist David Lindley performs music that redefines the word "eclectic." Lindley, well known for his many years as the featured slide guitarist with Jackson Browne contributed to Jackson's signature sound and variety of multi-platinum albums. David is also known for working with many other high profile musicians including Warren Zevon, Linda Ronstadt, James Taylor, David Crosby, Graham Nash, Dolly Parton, Bob Dylan, Ry Cooley, Rod Stewart and more. David Lindley's electro-acoustic performance effortlessly combines American folk, blues and bluegrass traditions with elements from African, Arabic, Asian, Celtic, Malagasy, and Turkish musical sources. Lindley incorporates an incredible array of stringed instruments including but not limited to Kona and Weissenborn Hawaiian lap steel guitars, Turkish saz and chumbus, the Middle Eastern oud, and Irish bouzouki. "Mr. Dave's" uncanny vocal mimicry, eye-popping wardrobe and demented sense of humor make his onstage banter a highlight of the show.

LIVE MUSIC JULY 31st

Webb Wilder
Rock, Roots Music, Americana

Friday - July 31, 2009
Show starts at 8PM (Come early for dinner!)

There are roots-rockers and then there's Webb Wilder. The self-proclaimed "Last of the Full Grown Men" is large enough for the big screen, hip enough to star in cult classic B movies, and tough enough to maintain a devoted worldwide fan base through a relentless never-ending tour schedule. More Like Me, his first collection of new material since 2005, is classic Webb Wilder - an exciting blend of bedrock roadhouse rockers and bittersweet ballads incorporating roots-rock influences, irreverent attitude and with that informs Webb's music.

"Forgotten Residents"
Featuring the Photography of Richard A. Burke

WCAC 2009 Artist Series July Art Show
On display July 2nd through July 31st.

Richard's current inspiration is the shadows, the silence, the peeling paint of the Poorhouse in Angelica. It kept him coming back for more, each time modifying the internal landscapes, and capturing a story being whispered in his ear. He has started to put subjects into his images, just another way of telling that story that he is hearing. Richard is trying to imagine what the people of the Poorhouse felt and looked like back in the 1920s and 1930s when it was an insane asylum. He's also trying to add in a gothic twist to this project.

		JULY MUSIC LINEUP LIVE MUSIC JULY 11th Luna (and her band) Folk Rock, Acoustic, Indie Saturday - July 11th, 2009 Show starts at 8PM (Come early for dinner!) She is gifted with a voice steeped in Appalachian tradition, but never afraid to let guitars drive the message. Her dynamic live shows often begin with a cappella "Pretty Saro" before kicking back into a rockabilly stomper. Not easily grouped into a folk, country or rock genre, Luna blends all of her influences into an honest sound. Featuring a versatile band that can sound like Buck Owens' band one second and Led Zeppelin the next, she writes and performs from the heart. Luna has performed all across the United States and Great Britain. She is always well received by audiences that appreciate pure music. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION.

		"Bookish" Featuring the Artwork of Debra Eck WCAC 2009 Artist Series June Art Show On display June 5th through July 2nd. For many years Debra has been fascinated with the discourses surrounding madness and the stories of women historically trapped inside the boundaries of those ideas. Recently she has been further engaged by a resonance perceived between this discussion and the language of Victorian design reform. All of this interest has been focused through the space of Charlotte Perkins Gilman's "Yellow Wallpaper", a work that concerns both mad women and immoral design. As she has lived with these dialogues, she has again filtered them through the lens of her experience and has found that this work has begun to distil out of this intersection and spill into the studio. She feels the presence of women, the hysterics, the domestic and material feminists, the utopian dreamers, they remain as the paper cocoons their words across time. and revealed they flutter, insubstantial, like moths beating vainly against a darkened window pane. Debra has found there is no way to be outside of the pattern, that to find a space she must struggle to inhabit the interstices between ornament and flourish. This new work is about finding what lies in this between, of living in the pattern and subverting its lines to make her own design. Debra finds herself drawn back repeatedly to work that requires repetition and the labor of her hands and always to the presence of text and pattern and to making work that inhabits the spaces of the studio and gallery.
