For the past many months he and his girlfriend Jess have been touring the country in a van\, playing and living and collecting stories to shape into songs. Should be a fantastic evening of music\, as Josh returns to his most recent home and brings along some of Madison’s finest to play with him. \n” … Singer-songwriter Josh Harty has everything to make it. A warm-sounding voice that refers to that of James Taylor or Gordon Lightfoot\, a guitar technique many artists can only dream of\, and narrative texts taken from life. . . The sincerity of the songs shines and the subtle and beautifully detailed instrumentation ensure that you always stay focused…” rootstime.be \n“The first thing that hits you is Harty’s world weary voice on Whiskey & Morphine as a song that talks of self-destruction and sets the tone for what is to come. . . Harty draws you into his songs and you are a part of his world.” -Stephen Rapid \n“I reckon this’ll be the third album for Wisconsin native Josh Harty. Coming from an intensely musical background\, he seems to have been playing and performing most of his 30-odd years and his fluency on the acoustic guitar is a testament to all those years of playing. As a songwriter\, I would say he’s striving to be as honest\, as true to an emotion\, as he can possibly get. . . there is a dignity to this music making that leaves us feeling enriched for the experience.” -John Davy No Depression! \nPlease call to reserve.

Since then\, Kaia has expanded into the Madison area and beyond performing regularly and selling her CD at shows and online. \nThe recording project enabled Kaia to work with outstanding musicians including Randy Sabien\, who brought his violin and mandolin wizardry to the album\, and Sam Steffke whose keyboard skills adorn the jazzy song “Let Him Be.” Local dobro master Paul Bast also appears on three songs on the album. \nFollowing the release of Seams of My Heart\, Kaia was invited to play her song “Who Are You?” as a guest at Michelle Shocked’s concert in Madison\, September of 2010. Encouraged by Shocked\, who wrote “Thanks for sharing your voice and talent with my audience\, Kaia. What a beautiful song!” \nKaia’s songwriting has been compared to Joni Mitchell’s for its lyrical metaphors\, intense melodies and experimental chord use. Her voice\, while distinct\, has subtle similarities to Natalie Merchant\, being similarly supple\, strong and alluring. Other influences have included Carole King\, the Indigo Girls\, Carrie Newcomer\, Sarah McClachlan\, Patty Griffin and Paul Simon. \nSeams of My Heart earned a glowing review from the Americana Gazette and airplay on the Women of Substance online radio station. Andy Ziehli of The Americana Gazette says of Kaia’s songs\, “Each song is very well written\, with a true authenticity of life. You can picture yourself or someone you know in each story line.” He continues\, “Fowler is a tremendous lyricist. Her lyrics paint pictures and her musical notes add the color…” (Aug.-Sept. 2010) URL:https://cafecarpe.com/event/kaia-fowler-3/ LOCATION:Cafe Carpe\, Fort Atkinson END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20130525T200000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20130525T223000 DTSTAMP:20260615T124131 CREATED:20130306T031757Z LAST-MODIFIED:20130513T181920Z UID:1621-1369512000-1369521000@cafecarpe.com SUMMARY:LARRY PENN/ JOHN SIEGER/ MARK DVORAK DESCRIPTION:A whoppin’ night of great music with three great guys: \nThis is the third or fourth of these shows with the “three grumpy amigos”\, and they have been a delight each time\, with the audience clamoring for another grumpy get-together. Don’t miss out on the hottest thing in showbiz. \nLarry Penn sings and tells stories of hard work\, working people\, trains\, trucks\, life on the road\, love\, nonsense\, and flamingos. Noted for their elegance in simplicity\, his songs are not only popular with audiences\, but are acclaimed by other artists\, many of whom have recorded their own renditions of Larry’s songs. His performances are delightful.  \nMark Dvorak    plays folk and blues on banjo and guitar – carrying on the tradition of stalwarts like the above-lauded Mr. Penn.   “Mark is a charismatic performer with a spark of gentle passion that lights every concert hall and every greenway where he lifts his voice in celebration of the old songs. He has been called “a folk singer’s folk singer who follows unerringly in the footsteps of Pete Seeger and Woody Guthrie\,” and his song writing has been called “wondrous” and “profound.” \nLike Larry\,  John Sieger is another Milwaukee gem\, known as a prolific and talented songwriter with a semi-country bent whose songs have impressed Dwight Yoakam\, Jerry Harrison\, The BoDeans\, Robbie Fulks and Flaco Jimenez enough to record them. He has been in numerous Milwaukee bands\, including the R&B Cadets\, Semi-Twang\, the SubContinentals. Roots rock\, country\, R&B- John runs the gamut.

Strength in Voice\, Instrumentation\, Lyrics\, Entertainment\, these guys are VILE. \nWhat’s not to like- except them\, a bunch of knobs? \nI meant nauts. Also known as the Shit-u-nauts\, “They will go as far as outer space to bring you the truth. I shit you not\, my friends.” \nCall now to reserve your seats.
