Liz Longley This Sunday
During the past year, Liz Longley has received the kinds of accolades and awards that recognize her as one of the finest new talents writing songs today. In 2010, Liz took the Overall Grand Prize, amongst 9,000 entries, in the International Acoustic Music Awards (IAMA). Last summer she garnered three of the top honors on the acoustic music scene: 2009 Co-Winner of the Mountain Stage New Song Contest, finalist in the 2009 Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk Competition, and Grand Prize Winner of the Rocky Mountain Folk Festival’s Songwriter Showcase.
Liz’s open approach to songwriting across several genres is not only why her music defies classification, it is also why music lovers seem so taken with her performances—they get to enjoy a little Country, some Acoustic Pop, the Blues, and even some Jazz. Graduating from Berklee College of Music in 2010, Liz has received Berklee’s highest honor for songwriting, the Scott Benson Scholarship. Her songs have faired well in Berklee’s annual songwriting competitions: “Rush” was chosen as the No. 1 song in 2009, and “Whatever Goes Up” the No. 2 song the year before. An engaging performer, Liz was the student Berklee College of Music selected to represent the school at the 2009 Kennedy Center Conservatory Project in Washington, DC.
Liz has been hailed by singer-songwriter Livingston Taylor as “a world-class singer… one of the best I’ve ever heard”. ‘The Telegraph’ of New Hampshire says, “Longley’s songs swell with honesty and genuine emotion that most of us are unable to admit to but recognize all the same.” Pop icon John Mayer broke into an impromptu rendition of Liz’s song ‘Queen’ during a visit to Berklee and has described her music as “gorgeous.” The Washington Post agrees and adds, “This voice won’t stay small long… singer-songwriter Liz Longley seems destined for a bigger audience.”
In addition to regularly sharing the stage with Livingston Taylor, Liz has opened for acclaimed artists such as Shawn Colvin, Paula Cole, Colin Hay, Nanci Griffith, Jesse Colin Young, and Jonathan Edwards.

John Eddie Openers
As you know, John Eddie is coming back to Coffee Works for 2 great shows on November 29th, 2009. This promises to be a fantastic day of good old Rock and Roll, John Eddie style. The two exclusive shows will be completely different. The afternoon show will be a stripped down acoustic style show with upright bass and snare drum percussion while the evening show will be an all out John Eddie Full Band event. Opening the afternoon show will be Ashley J. A local performer who has performed at Coffee Works quite a few times before pleasing the audience with her talent and original music. The evening show will be opened by Coffee Works favorite, Patty Blee. Patty opened for John at our last John Eddie concert and she stunned the audience. We were pleased that she could do it again! So mark the date and plan on being there for either or both shows. Tickets are available now and can be puchased online. Click Here to order your tickets now!!
