About two years ago I enjoyed a great evening of music when I attended a concert given by a singer/songwriter, Karen Mal.
She was visting Fairfield from Austin, Texas and played at Revelations Book Store.
Unfortunately, on the same night there was a play at Spayde Theatre and another event at Morning Star, so not too many people were available for her performance.
I just remember sitting in the audience thinking that people had missed seeing a truly fine talent.
Her music was captivating. (She has a great voice, her lyrics are sweet and charming, and she plays a great acoustic guitar.)
Fortunately, Karen is returning to Fairfield to play at Cafe Paradiso on Thursday, Dec. 8th.
Please come and see her live in concert, and please send this email to your friends, so we can give her a warm Fairfield welcome.......
I have included some information on her below, and you can also visit her website...
P.S. Please also let me know if you have a guest room for her for the one evening she will be here.....
Thank you! David Hawthorne
