Our annual benefit features three songwriters taking turns singing and playing their own songs, and sharing the stories behind the songs. The songwriters/performers tonight are Peter Irving, Monica Murphy, and JP Spencer.
Peter Irving began his musical career as front and center in his third-grade hip-hop dance group, he had a brief stint playing the tuba and then picked up the acoustic guitar and bass in 8th grade. It wasn’t until 2012 that Peter met Sandy Stehling who introduced him to ragtime and country blues. At the same time, he spent numerous hours jamming with his college buddies, playing funk, hip-hop, and rock. Over the years Peter dug further and further into folk music (particularly of the danceable variety). As of late, he has been working on his fiddling and making sure his songwriting is as grammatically correct as possible. Be prepared for music of the melancholic and root n’ toot variety."
Monica Clare Murphy is a trilingual singer/songwriter who plays music primarily with a charango, which she got in Argentina ten years ago. She has been writing and performing original music since 2017 starting at Linneman’s Open Stage.
(“JP”) is a guitar player, singer and songwriter from Milwaukee who has graced the Coffee House stage a number of times in the past in our songwriter shows and various tribute benefits.
Doors open at 7:00. Suggested donation $5 - 15.
