Caffe Trieste and Kiki Wow present keyboardist Tom Lawson on Friday, October 19, 6:30pm-9:30pm. Donations are gratefully accepted.

Tom Lawson, known primarily as keyboardist/vocalist with Monterey area bands such as Blues at Eleven, strips the music down to the core of the blues experience with his solo piano and vocal performance. The music is selected from the birth of recorded blues in the 1920s onward, but this is more than just a history lesson. Each song tries to capture the emotion of the original performance and to involve the listener in the story that each song tells.
