Steve Forbert 7/1/10
Coffee Works Cafe proudly presents
An Evening With Steve Forbert on Thursday, July 1st, 2010 – at 8pm. What a way to start the 4th of July Holiday Weekend! This promises to be a fantastic, up close and personal performance and we are delighted that he has agreed to come and do a show here at Coffee Works.
With an absolutely superb track record that stretches back three decades, Steve Forbert has fashioned a niche for himself within the folk genre. His records offer incredibly thoughtful songs that are lushly orchestrated and cleanly produced – an organic-sounding combination that is rare in contemporary music today. His lyrical intelligence and vocal timbre have garnered him comparisons to Bob Dylan since the beginning of his career but – make no mistake – Steve’s unique sound and energy are all his own. Since his breakthrough sophomore album Jackrabbit Slim in 1979 that featured the hit “Romeo’s Tune,” Forbert has enjoyed both critical praise and, more importantly, a devoted host of fans.

Coffee Of The Month – Sumatra Mandheling
A very smooth, with little bitterness; complex character with a natural musty flavor; rich and thick body; great for after dinner.
Did you know our coffee is roasted on premises in our French built Samiac coffee roaster. Once you try our coffee at home, you will have a hard time going back to what you used to drink. Keep an open mind to trying coffee from each region until you find which coffee tastes best to you. Our coffees from Africa are bolder, our Central and South American coffees are more neutral in flavor profile and tend to be lighter roast except the Brazil and Colombian coffees which are roasted darker. The Indonesian coffees are roasted Medium to dark for a smooth and complex flavor profile. And of course, we offer the world’s best coffees from Jamaica’s Blue Mountains – Mavis Bank Estate, as well as Nicaraguan Selva Negra Estate and Estate coffee from the Kona region.
Come in and join our Coffee Club program, purchase 12, 1/2 lbs of coffee and receive the 13th free. (Exotic coffee’s excluded)
Specialty Tea Leaves
Tea Leaves: – Fiji
Fiji is a loose green tea blend flavored with wild pineapple and papaya. Before steeping, this aromatic tea smells exactly like mother’s pineapple upsi de-down cake cooling on the kitchen counter. Freshly brewed, Fiji offers a mild, sweet, almost tropical fragrance. Fiji falls at the extreme opposite end of the olfactory spectrum. The flavor is a seamless synthesis of pineapple, papaya, and quality green tea – one of those unusual flavored greens that maintains a perfect balance among all of the ingredients. This tea achieves a flawless synergy, with no single element overwhelming or detracting from the others.
Come in and try some. You’ll love it!
Jeffrey Gaines Coming Up!

Dayna Kurtz 6/27/10

Tickets are available Now – >>> Click Here! <<<
ALL MUSIC GUIDE REVIEW Dayna Kurtz is the kind of artist who inspires wild-eyed zealotry among her fans, and there are three reasons for it: One, she’s an artist’s artist, one whose whiskeyed, determined alto often earns her comparisons with Nina Simone; two, while Europeans adore her, she’s obscenely underappreciated in her own country; and three, her songs, which straddle a difficult space between jazz, rock, and folk, are pure poetry. Another Black Feather, her third full-length, merits still more whipping up of the faithful. Each of these 11 tracks arrives swathed in soul-derived, deeply held meaning, and each follows lyrical twists that deliver a listener to places in her own heart she might not have had occasion to visit otherwise. There is sadness (“It’s the Day of Atonement, 2001″), regret (“Venezuela,” “Nola”), and tenderness (“All Over Again”), but most of all there is beauty; a common thread. Kurtz chooses her backing players as carefully as her words, and here they display an audible knowingness of her character — when her mood shifts, they match it with idiosyncratic mastery. Another Black Feather owes its artist instant stardom. If that’s unattainable, it should at least earn her the one descriptor all serious artists strive for: important. ——by Tammy La Gorce
