Local Brew Coffeehouse with Jon Shain & Special Guest Bill Newton

  • Bay Spring Community Center 170 Narragansett Avenue Barrington, RI, 02806 United States (map)

Jon Shain is a veteran singer-songwriter from North Carolina who’s been turning heads for years with his words, his fiery acoustic guitar work, and his evolved musical style – combining improvised piedmont blues with bluegrass, swing, and ragtime. He is the 2019 winner of the International Blues Challenge in the solo/duo category.

This is Jon's second appearance on the Local Brew stage and this time he'll be joined by another popular North Carolina musician, Bill Newton. Bill, a saxophone and harmonica player, is a founding member of three Carolina musical institutions: Rebecca and the Hi-Tones, Bill Newton's Big Blues Quartet, and the Duke Street Dogs. He has recorded with the Indigo Girls and Big Mama E and the Cool, among others, and toured extensively with Jon Shain.

Drownville Station will be your musical hosts for the evening.
