Middleburgh Library Notes for Monday, May 1, 2017
On May 3, at 7 p.m. join us for a concert with Martyn Joseph a powerful singer and songwriter gifted with the rare ability to speak to the soul with his expressive and poignant lyrics. With a career spanning 30 years, 32 albums, over a half a million record sales and thousands of live performances, the versatility of his music touches genres of folk, rock, soul, folk funk and Americana, yet somehow all these labels cannot define the spirit of his music.
This event is made possible (in part) with public funds from the decentralization program and the New York State Council on the Arts, administered through the Community Arts Grants Program by the Greene County Council on the Arts. Tickets are available at the door. Please use back entrance.
