Get into a 1960s groove as Peoples’ Voice Cafe takes you back to the era of subterranean Greenwich Village coffee houses. No microphones, no amps, no speakers and of course no live-streaming. Just acoustic instruments and natural voices with chairs arranged in a circle and the lights low. Home-made music as it was and still can be.After David Roth's 45-minute set, we feature five very talented but less known singer-songwriters who will each perform two of their very best songs in the round. David Roth will then return to do the final song of the night. Can you dig it?
DAVID ROTH
David is a singer, songwriter, and recording artist who has taken his songs, experience, and expertise to a wide variety of venues and countries for more than three decades. David Roth songs have found their way to Carnegie Hall, the United Nations, several "Chicken Soup for the Soul" books, the Kennedy Center, NASA's Space Shuttle "Atlantis," Peter, Paul, & Mary and Kingston Trio CDs, five Positive Music Awards, and the "Rise Up Singing" and "Rise Again" songbooks. He has released 15 CDs on the Wind River and Stockfisch labels. Poignant to improbable, untypical to topical, and holistic to hilarious, the Chicago native (now living on Cape Cod) called NYC his home in the 1980s and played for us many times back then.

Jane Babits began writing songs in the 1970s when she lived in Lower Manhattan. Her songs are gentle and soothing, often coming to her in the dreamy twilight of consciousness as she sings herself to sleep.
Joel Landy is known for his energetic and engaging stage performances delivering intelligent songs with wit and humor. He hosts the award winning "Songs of Freedom" cable tv/internet show. Pete Seeger called him "a real live wire."
