Songwriter Night after the Showdown

While the Blue Light Songwriter Showdown is over until the fall, you still have the chance every Monday night to witness great local songwriters.  The list is always full of extremely talented singers waiting to impress the Blue Light crowd.  And for you songwriters:  the crowd hasn’t dwindled since the contest.  You will have a great audience to support you!

Monday nights at the Blue Light is the perfect place to catch up-and-comers at their most raw.  It doesn’t get any more stripped down than just an acoustic guitar and a microphone.  You also get the opportunity to watch some more established artists play sans their bands.  William Clark Green and Charlie Shafter opened the show this week with a song swap, where they played some new material and some from their recent albums.  Second to the stage was Brandon Adams and Russell “Red” Shahan, the hosts of our songwriter night, who always play a fabulous set.  Why these two are not already out selling a million records I will never know, so enjoy them while you can on the small stage.

The rest of the songwriters had a little bit of everything to offer.  We saw some country, coffee shop pop, and acoustic rock among other genres represented.  There is truly something for everyone.  So bring your guitar and your listening ears to Monday nights for the best live music in town!
