JAVA NOTES Concert Series is proud to present Justin Roth in concert.
AFTER 12:00 P.M. ON FEB 9TH - TICKETS ONLY AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR.
Proceeds from this show will benefit The Boys & Girls Club
Blending intricate guitar work, smooth vocal melodies and a groove, Justin Roth offers up a rousing potpourri of new acoustic folk. Knowing that he stands on shoulders of those who came before him, he’s been compared to the likes of Michael Hedges, David Wilcox, Martin Sexton and Willy Porter. A fan once said that when Justin plays guitar, “it’s more than just an instrument but an extension of himself.” Seeing him perform, you see what they mean. Take an eye off him for a second, and you would swear that there were more instruments on stage.
"Fans of Leo Kottke or Michael Hedges will find themselves right at home
with the intricate guitar work...beautifully written lyrics."
- San Francisco Art Magazine
As a self-taught fingerstyle guitarist, Justin’s inventive technique leaves people asking themselves ‘how’d he do that?’ as he expresses a new voice of the guitar.This voice is what creates his unique and engaging sound. His songwriting style is an artful mix ranging from insightful metaphors, to clever stories with a twisted sense of humor, to the familiar imagery of the world around us. From time to time, you'll also catch him accompanying himself or backing up other artists on percussion such as LJ Booth, Tom Prasada-Rao or Chris Cunningham.
Java Notes will present a series of coffeehouse concerts, these evenings will be designed to raise funds for local non-profit organizations. This is our second season and shows will be held on special evenings at 7:30 p.m. Each evening will feature a different folk music performer, equal exchange (fair trade) coffee and hot chocolate, and desserts. The proceeds from admissions will go to the partner organization of the evening.
Java Notes has selected Habitat for Humanity as the non-profit organization for the second season:>
Habitat for Humanity is an international organization which enlists community support to help low income families build their own homes.
