Musical Guest: Becky Middleton

So who will you see at this shindig? Both an appropriate and valid question. It is one thing to say the show is great and another thing completely for the show to be actually great (which it will be).

Well, we'll be starting out with the vocal stylings of Becky Middleton.  Becky is a local artist who combines folk, blues and country to create her unique sound. Her song "Lost My Heart" was voted one the top local songs in 2009, and she played during Austin's SXSW music festival. Also, she hosts the Songwriters in the Round at Opening Bell Coffee on Monday nights where local singer songwriters play and answer audience questions. Intrigued? You can read an interview with Becky from Pegasus News here. Thanks for playing for us!
