2012-13 Children's Series: BSC Kids at the Broad Street Cafe
The free series for kids and families starts this Sunday at the Durham coffee shop and features some amazing talent.
Posted — Updated
For a few years now, Broad Street Cafe in Durham has been offering free shows for families on Sunday afternoons. They run from October through March on the first and third Sunday of each month starting around 4:30 p.m. It's all free (though the performers do appreciate tips or donations).
If you know the local music scene, then you'll probably recognized some of these other performers. They include Lynda Dawson from the Kickin Grass Band, who plays in Little Root for families, or her musical partner Sally Mullikin from Justin Robinson & The Mary Annettes. There's John Currie from Jon Shain Trio (and many other bands) in Flying Hippo for kids. And then there's Peter Holsapple of the dBs who has played with R.E.M. and Hootie and the Blowfish and sometimes plays with Baron Von Rumblebuss.
"Some of these bands have some amazing hidden talent," Broad Street's John Hite tells me. I'm going to have to agree.
