Join musician Yani Batteau and writer Judah Leblang for an evening of song, poetry, and memoir. During the performance local musician Yani will sing folk, country and blues, and writer Judah will share his (mostly) humorous stories of growing up in Cleveland, Ohio, dealing with middle age in Boston, and love gone wrong.

Judah Leblang is a Medford-based writer and storyteller, a columnist for Bay Windows newspaper, and a radio commentator.
