Kosi - Featuring Eric Lee
Friday, May 12 @ 8 pm $12
Kosi (née Akosua Gyebi) is a New York City based singer/songwriter with nappy hair and jazz roots. Although she always brings just a little drama to her compositions and interpretations, she’s more than just a drama queen. She’s got piercing eyes and a voice that’s larger than her body. But, small as she is, she won’t fit in a box. She switches styles more quickly than you can follow, from jazz, to rock, then folk, but never more than a few steps away from the blues. Kosi will be joined by Sinan Bakir. Turkish guitarist/composer Sinan Bakir is noted as a virtuoso player and a masterful composer by the music critics and his peers. 
Eric Lee, an emerging folk singer songwriter from Northampton MA. Eric has been in the folk scene for along time sharing the stage with the likes of Peter Rowan, Bella Fleck, John Gorka, Darol Anger and many more.
