Chicago Acoustic Underground Podcast

Jeff comes to us from Silvieand#39;s Lounge where he hosts an open mic show. His lyrics, voice, and guitar take us to beautiful places and reminded us a bit of John Denver. Take a break from lifeand#39;s travails and enjoy this lyrical man. For info and bookings: www.jeffchurchwell.com and www.myspace.com/jeffchurchwellmusic

This guy will blow your socks off. Perhaps the strongest voice I have ever recorded. Adam comes to us from Arkansas and is now a true Chicagoan. Great lyrics and excellent guitar style are combined with his incredible voice create a truly great show. Sit back and get ready!!!!

Dawn comes to us from Singapore via University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and I can tell you that we are lucky to have her here in Chicago. Classically trained on piano, a self taught guitarist and a great lyricist. I know that you are going to enjoy this show. For upcoming performance dates and more go to DawnXianaMoon.com

On this St. Patrickand#39;s Day week we bring you a fine Irish Lass Carey Farrell Carey brings a lyrical voice and a simple beauty to her original material. I especially enjoyed Kindergarten Boyfriend which comes from her teaching background. For more info on Carey go to www.myspace.com/careyfarrell You can hear her live on St. Patrickand#39;s Day at The Pick a Cup in Evanston.

I first heard Emily on a WGN News segment featuring Chicago artists and she blew me away. She is our first keyboard based artist and she is equally powerful on the keys as well as her vocals. You are in store for a stellar performance that, at times, brought tears to our eyes and goosebumps to our arms. Get ready, stop what you are doing, sit down,and enjoy one of the finest shows yet on CAU.

Bill and his wife Joyce showed up with Bagels, sparkling grape juice, and wine. Needless to say we had a good time and I think you will love this show. Bill has a haunting voice with wonderful lyrics and excellent guitar work. For more about bill check out his site www.myspace.com/greenfleamusic Thanks to everyone for listening...

I found Phil when I went to my new favorite guitar store to get my 1980 Guild D-50 repaired. They did a great job and while I was picking it up I struck up a conversation with Avenue N Guitars co-owner Phil which resulted in this show. Wait until you hear this show! They just keep getting better and better.

This is the show that I never wanted to post. Jacob Covington and I created this Podcast and now Jacob bids us goodbye as he has moved to San Francisco. He leaves us with some fine examples of his music in a quartet with Matt Berger on Guitar, Mike Bulaw on Bass, Scott Farago on Drums, and Jacob on Tenor Sax
