TWO SINGER-SONGWRITERS KICK OFF LITHGOW’S SATURDAY MUSIC SERIES

Augusta, Maine - Singer-songwriters Nancy Sferra and Heather Hardy will kick off a new fall music series at Lithgow Public Library, “Live & Local at the Library,” to be held on Saturday mornings in September, October and November.  Sferra and Hardy’s concert will be held September 15 from 9:30 to 11 a.m. in the Reading Room.
   
The fall concerts are free and open to the public.
 
 "After the great turnouts for our summer lawn concert series, we’re happy to offer a fall music series featuring some amazingly talented singers and musicians from central Maine,” said adult services aide Lori Clark.  “We hope folks will stop by Lithgow on Saturday mornings and enjoy a relaxing morning of music.”

Sferra lives and works in mid-coast Maine.  She has been writing songs for over a decade, accompanying herself on guitar.  Her songs are observations of human nature – sometimes funny and sometimes serious – but always focusing on the story.  She is currently working on her first CD.
   
Hardy writes and performs songs about the things that matter most to her:  nature, society, family and love.  She blends her unique voice with rich melodies, sometimes including mouth trumpet instrumentals along with guitar.  Hardy lives in mid-coast Maine and is co-organizer of the Round Top Coffee House open mic in Damariscotta.
   
Featured in the “Live & Local at the Library” series are:
Saturday, September 15 – Nancy Sferra and Heather Hardy.
Saturday, October 20 – Anything Goes (guitar duo) and Tom Ward (Hallowell singer-songwriter).
Saturday, November 17 – Giff Jamison (folk, blues and jazz) and Tim Rice (singer-songwriter encompassing a range of genres).
         
Lithgow Library is located at 45 Winthrop Street in Augusta.  For more information, call the library at 626-2415 or visit the website at www.lithgow.lib.me.us.
