For more information call 617-718-2191 or visit <a href="https://artsatthearmory.org/">artsatthearmory.org</a> or <a href="https://www.facebook.com/SomervilleSongwriterSessions">www.facebook.com/SomervilleSongwriterSessions</a>. Somerville Songwriter Sessions at the Armory Cafe presents contemporary folk singer/songwriters in concert, on the first Saturday of each month. The Armory Cafe features live music in an intimate setting, a menu featuring sandwiches, soups, desserts and coffees, and plenty of free parking. Our 6/3 performers: Costa Rica born folksinger Dean Stevens has been delighting audiences of all ages throughout the Americas for the past thirty years. An exuberant performer of distinctive style and wit, he combines an intricate, self-taught guitar style with a versatile and expressive singing voice. He has established himself as a formidable creator and interpreter of songs in both English and Spanish, exploring a wide variety of personal and social topics that celebrate the Earth while annoying the narrow minded. His latest CD is At Last. Pete Seeger says "Dean Stevens will inspire you." More on Dean at <a href="https://facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064552575359">facebook.com/profile.php?id=100064552575359</a>. Camden, Maine songwriter David Dodson's unique original songs range from heartfelt to hilarious. He's an energetic, soulful and funny performer who writes in many styles, from poignant ballads to over-the-top tangos. His secular hymn "The Farthest Field" has been sung all over the world. He plays a mean guitar, tells a good story, sings like a bird, and he's got rhythm. Who could ask for anything more? The Boston Globe called Dodson "An eyes-twinkling, word-twisting, pretension-shattering wit that delighted and surprised the crowd all night." He has shared the stage with everyone from k.d. lang to Sha Na Na, and his songs have been recorded by numerous folk artists and comedians. His CDs include Weasel Rhythm and Goldenrod. More on David at <a href="http://daviddodsonmusic.com/">daviddodsonmusic.com</a>. Called "one of New England's best songwriters" by The Boston Globe, Terry Kitchen creates songs that are portraits of ordinary people and emotions, captured with extraordinary compassion, honesty and humor. He's been performing on folk stages across the country since the 1990s, releasing a dozen albums filled with literate musical storytelling, supple guitar playing and distinctive, intimate vocals. His 2020 CD Next Time We Meet reached #5 on the national Folk-DJ album chart (with its single "Party on the Roof" reaching #4 on the song chart), and his songs have won the Mid-Atlantic and USA Song Contests and been runner-up in the John Lennon Song Contest. In the 1980s he was the leader of the groundbreaking Boston band Loose Ties, whose experiences he recounts in his novel Next Big Thing, called "a great debut novel" by The San Francisco Book Review. He also published a collection of short stores, Coping Mechanisms, in 2020.
