Don White, Michelle LaPoetica opens
Celebrate the start of the New Moon Coffeehouse’s 37th season with famed and funny singer/songwriter/storyteller/humorist/teacher… Don White. No single label pins him down. He performs at the New Moon Coffeehouse on Saturday October 19th at 7:30pm. One of Don’s mentees, acclaimed poet Michelle LaPoetica opens the evening. The coffeehouse is located in the Universalist Unitarian Church, 16 Ashland St, Haverhill MA. Admission to the show is $25; $15 for those ages 21 and under. Tickets for this show are available at the door starting around 6:30; doors open at 7:00. Tickets may be reserved prior to the show by visiting www.newmooncoffeehouse.org.
Don White writes and sings about universal life events, often finding the humor in them, but not always. During his career he’s released ten CDs, three live DVDs, and a book. He’s opened for Arlo Guthrie, Ritchie Havens, Louden Wainwright III, and Taj Mahal. He’s also shared a bill with David Bromberg, Janis Ian, and Lyle Lovett. In addition, White has been featured in storytelling festivals around the country.
As Tony Toledo commented on the New Moon Facebook page: “Don will tickle your funny bone.” True, laughs are guaranteed at a Don White concert. But so is thoughtful and sometimes heartbreaking storytelling and songs. The emotional rollercoaster of a Don White concert will leave you feeling fully content and uplifted.
he easiest way to get to the New Moon Coffeehouse is to take Rte 495 to exit 51A (Route 125 South). Stay on Route 125 South for about 1.5 miles. At intersection of Routes 125 & 110, look left for a red brick church. Turn left onto Kenoza Ave (aka Rte 110). Then first right by U-Haul trucks. And right onto Ashland St. There are 2 parking lots available behind the church, on both sides of Ashland St. The coffeehouse entrance is also there, at the back of the church.
