Thursday, April 5th
Opening Bell Coffee
Emily Elbert
8 PM – No Cover
“On the back of her new CD, Bright Side, Emily Elbert looks all of eight years old, lazing in the grass in her tie-dyed t-shirt. On the front, she might pose for 14. She’s 17, though, and poised on the front edge of a long music career that includes a four-year scholarship at Boston’s famed Berklee School of Music.
Maybe she’s one of those timeless people wise beyond their years, she certainly sings and writes older than 17. A third-generation musician living in Coppell, she wrote, arranged, sang, played acoustic guitar, and co-produced all of the songs on Bright Side, accompanied by her father. Roland Elbert (keyboards), Nick Pencis (drums), and co-producer Bob Gentry (bass and percussion).
It’s Ms. Elbert’s CD all the way, as she wanders maturely through easy, jazzy, mostly feel-good vocals with a still-sweet voice unsullied by the world’s woes. Cheers to the promises of youth, as Elbert sings of belonging to the river “since before my birth,” and that we can be “the mountaintop where the air begins to stop.”

Thursday, April 5th
Rubber Gloves
Joey Kendall / Warren Jackson Hearne / Sydney Confirm / The Show is the Rainbow
Doors at 9 PM – $5.00
I freakin’ love Joey Kendall and Warren Jackson Hearne. You will too. Really. You will.

“Joey Kendall has been performing around the metroplex for a very long time, enough to see the rise and fall of landmark bands as they come and go. I’m sure half the kids that go out to see him play don’t realize that he’s been doing this for almost nine years, half their lives to many of them. Although atoning to having bad people skills, he seems to please crowds all over…”
