March Madness... without the Hoops

March is jam packed with tunes at the Shaky Tree... If you missed the first show of the month with the Stereofidelics... I highly suggest you keep your ears open for the next time they roll through (maybe this summer). They were awesome!!!

However, don't be too sad... you can still catch plenty of GREAT music this month... starting Saturday the 8th, with Mat D. This is a re-scheduled show that you don't want to miss, and Mat will put on a show that will be heartfelt as well as fun. Catch one of the best, in a growing movement of mid-west song writers, for his second appearance on our stage.

Next in line is Kevin Mileski (canceled). This Colorado based singer/songwriter is sure to create a fan-base in Spencer, with his finger-style guitar playing and vocals hailed as, the "new style for any generation". Come support live music in Spencer March 15th, with Kevin Mileski.

Come out to the Tree for a rare Wednesday night show (March 26th - 7:30pm) with Lou Brown. Lou wins the award for "longest distance traveled to play at the Tree"... Lou brings her musical talent all the way from England to share with us. We want to show Lou why musicians across the country (and the world) are wanting to play at the Tree... the amazing audiences we create!!!

Right after Lou is YOUR chance to take the Shaky Tree stage... at the Shaky Tree Community Open-Mic, March 28th-8pm. We are cultivating local talent and building community in one jam-packed night. If you are interested in participating... show up at 7:30 and sign-up for a 10 min slot (you may get multiple slots if available, but please keep each spot to ten min or less)... performers start at 8pm. If you have ever wondered what its like to share your songs, poems, comedy, magic tricks (or about anything else) with the world from a stage... then our Community Open-Mic is your chance. This is a safe and supportive atmosphere (we ask all participants and audience members to work towards this), so stop by and check it out.

Winter is on its way out... what better way to celebrate than to get out and see friends and family at Shaky Tree Coffee... where Coffee, Creativity & Community meet.
