Join us this Saturday April 12th, 7 - 9pm for the Sacred Bean Coffeehouse as we welcome back Chris Westfall and Barbara Bootz. As always, admission is free and all ages are welcome. See below for this month's performers and directions or visit:

This month's performers …

Chris Westfall http://www.chriswestfall.com/

In concert, Chris' style finds a balance of 'acoustic folk'. The clear tenor voice moves gently from familiar folk tunes to original interpretations of artists such as James Taylor and John Denver, and then to his own heartfelt compositions. What a wonderful message he shares with us in his introspective "I'm Coming Home" and his lyrical celebration of the holiday season with "Know It's Christmas". Hearing Chris in a live performance for the first time, people find themselves touched by his compassion. He encourages the audience to sing along…and by doing so, strangers become friends, brought together by the spirit of the music. With every song, Chris possesses the magical ability to hold the audience in his gentle grasp…making each listener feel he sings only for them, which, in truth, he does.


Barbara Bootz

Creative original music and cool versions of some songs you may know!
