This show will be seated.
Called a "master of introspective ballads" (Performing Songwriter), Boston-based songwriter Meg Hutchinson brings her poetic folk/pop songs to Jammin' Java. The young songwriter wowed critics and won her fans across North America and the UK with her Red House Records debut Come Up Full. Now working on a new studio album, you can expect lots of new songs from this lyrical writer and engaging performer.

Ellis Paul is one of the leading voices in American songwriting. He was a principle leader in the wave of singer/songwriters that emerged from the Boston folk scene, creating a movement that revitalized the national acoustic circuit with an urban, literate, folk pop style that helped renew interest in the genre in the 1990's.
His charismatic, personally authentic performance style has influenced a generation of artists away from the artifice of pop, and closer towards the realness of folk. Though he remains among the most pop-friendly of today's singer-songwriters - his songs regularly appear in hit movie and TV soundtracks - he has bridged the gulf between the modern folk sound and the populist traditions of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger more successfully than perhaps any of his songwriting peers.
