Fourth Friday Singer/Songwriter Night at Clear Heart Gallery

Maury Manseau gained substantial experience with live performance and recording as the lead singer of The Sunshine Company in the late 60's, and with friends and mentors including Jackson Browne, Greg Allman, Hoyt Axton, and Steve Gillette.  After a 23 year break, he began writing songs again in 2003, and is currently playing local venues with his partner, Cheri Buonaguidi.

 Steve Harr, Sonoma County transplant from Virginia and North Carolina headed up a rock band called "Yesterday's Children", opening for Commander Cody, Steve Miller Blues Band, The Grateful Dead, and John Lee Hooker.   He continues to write amazing and catchy tunes with heartfelt messages and melodies, and the occasional belly-laugher, in genres ranging from bluegrass, country, jazz, blues and, what he calls, "just plain weird".  Now playing as a duo called "Marshall Bolt and Harr", music has been central to Steve's life since way back in the 60's.

GUEST ARTIST  Laura Zucker is an award-winning singer-songwriter from Lafayette who has been selected as a Kerrville TX New Folk Finalist, and a Just Plain Folks nominee 2009.  Besides winning "Best Song" title for West Coast Songwriter competitions, she has a newly-released CD entitled "Under Refinery Lights." 

 "Expertly crafted song, accessible and compelling, performed with a seasoned finesse and a vocal quality that is honest and direct".

Host Larry Kenneth Potts (Petaluma) has won considerable acclaim by winning and placing in numerous international songwriting competitions and performance entries.  Some of his compositions have attracted the attention of music industry reps from Nashville and Los Angeles with an eye to pitching to major artists and Film/TV.  Genres include folk, Americana, Western, Country, Pop, and Jazz.  His new album "Gone West" currently stands at #9 in the worldwide top 20 Western radio charts.  He has four albums of independently-produced songs. 

Note:  Colin Campbell, multi-instrumentalist extraordinnaire from Sebastapol (harmonica, guitar) will accompany various artists, and Marshall Bolt will assist Steve Harr in rhythm guitar.
