Mose Allison
THIS SUNDAY, September 26, 4pm
$25 / $30

This performance is a celebration of Mose Allison: The Way of the World, the first studio album in over ten years from one of America's greatest songwriters and musicians. By his own estimate, influential musician Mose Allison has written over 150 songs, several of which have been covered by such pop artists as Bonnie Raitt, Van Morrison, Tracy Nelson, the Who and Elvis Costello. And while wide-scale attention has eluded the 73-year-old jazz pianist/singer, Allison continues to perform 125 gigs a year.
