Sep. 7 George Wesley. One of Homegrown Music's longest-running
and most welcome musical guests, and one of the major figures on the
Northeastern Pennsylvania music scene, George Wesley returns for a new
collection of appealing and often danceable original songs. This time, George
takes advantage of technology to perform a full band's worth of instruments in
real time by himself.

Sep. 14 Cosmic American Derelicts. The latest incarnation of this fine roots rock band from New Jersey features the soulful vocals of Latoya Williams. They return with a brand new collection of original music again marked by solid rock musicianship and first-rate compositions.
|
Sep. 21 Gladshot. With two national CDs under their belt,
Gladshot pays Homegrown Music a visit with a set of new songs not yet available
on album. The quartet, led by the songwriting couple Mike Blaxill and Debbie
Andrews, put in a well-received live Homegrown Music concert in 2002. With a
new rhythm section, Gladshot continues their distinctive and appealing sound
with solid vocal harmonies and influences that run from folk to jazz.

| Sep. 28 Wayne Scott Farley. From Easton, PA, guitar virtuoso and singer-songwriter Wayne Scott Farley makes his first appearance on Homegrown Music with some outstanding original music highlighting his remarkable skills on guitar. With a guitar style that hints at both Michael Hedges and Adrian Legg, but played exclusively on 12-string guitars, Farley's guitar work is impressive. And he's also a fine songwriter and with a pleasing vocal style. |

no-compromise musicianship, in what promises to be a memorable performance
before a large live audience. (Note: Start time 7:00 PM.)
