No match for Joe Match! Local singer/songwriter, Joe Match is back with covers and originals! |

| 8:00 P.M. |
|
His music is hard to define, with vastly changing styles. His serious blues and jazz influences apparent, as he seemlessly switches up his repertoire melding several genres of music into a single set. "
"With strong improvisational skills lending to an innate creative mind, Rhad's songs need not be heard, but experienced. Vastly changing styles and a seemlessly never ending repertoire make listening to Rhad's music a delight to the senses, leaving one curious to the next sounds they will hear."

Dan Winship's Art Opening at Blue |
Daniel has two degrees, an A.S. in communication art from Tampa Technical Institute and a B.F.A in illustration from the Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, Florida. He thoroughly enjoyed his 4 years at Ringling. After college, he and his family decided to move back to Maine, where he started working with a small card and stationary company: Annie/Catherine Inc. To Winship, working at Annie/Catherine Inc. is the equivalent to playing outside as a young boy all day.
Mr. Winship now resides in Gorham, Maine with his wife, four year old son, and a beautiful new baby girl.
