Coffee House with Todd Burge “West Virginia’s Premier Songwriter”

September 15, 2023 in the Gun Room Restaurant at the Hotel Lafayette, 101 Front St., Marietta OH
8-9:30 pm. Door opens at 7:30 pm.

Presented by The Blues, Jazz & Folk Music Society

A native of West Virginia’s Wood County region, Burge spent the ’80s and ’90s earning his place as one of the most important and enduring figures in the state’s music scene, fronting everything from the alt-rock band 63 Eyes to the outlaw-country cover project Triple Shot. Since the early 2000s, Burge has concentrated on his singular brand of folk-pop storytelling. If it’s been discovered by man, West Virginian Todd Burge has written about it. Born to ponder and observe life, each of his songs tells a story. Whether drawn from personal experience or a tale of poetically woven fiction, you’ll live every second of it through his songs.

Todd is donating his services at a reduced rate to raise money for our Coffee House Series.

Food is served in the Hotel’s Riverfront Bar & Grill until 8 pm. Beer, wine, coffee, pop & water will be available in the Gun Room during the show. Admission is $15 cash at the door, or go to our website bjfm.org, click on events and purchase tickets online. For info call: 304-481-8389 or 740-376-0222.

This show is made possible by a generous donation from Mother Earth Foods in Parkersburg WV for our Cobbler’s Coffee House series.
