The Music of the Mike
and Amy Finders Band
Described as Acoustic Blue Folkgrass, the music of the Mike and

Finders' voice has been described as "a rich, acrobatic instrument...",
and husband Mike has won songwriting contests the last two years
at MerleFest, one of the most prestigious acoustic music festivals
in the US.
Combined with the music of Switchback, this evening promises to
be a wonderful musical event.

The Music of Beth Patterson
Multi -instrumentalist Beth Patterson is foremost a player of the
eight - and ten - stringed Irish bouzoukis (adaptations of a traditional
Greek instrument). She integrates into her style her experiences
of playing Celtic, Cajun, rock, jazz, blues, country, gospel, classical,
Latin, and folk music. She spent a year studying traditional Irish
music and ethnomusicology at University College, Cork in Ireland,
and being a firm believer in the healing power of music, she also
holds a bachelor’s degree in music therapy. Her performances are
full of drive, energy, and passion, laced with humor, with an eclectic
repertoire of Celtic, roots, and contemporary songs. Her stage presence
has been described as "a cross between a cobra and a puppy".
With Beth and Switchback on the same bill, we should be able to
illuminate all of Chicago from the energy on the stage! Don't miss
this exciting show.
The show will take place at FitzGerald's
