You don’t see a lot of people play a 12-string guitar for an entire show. You see even fewer finger-pick such an instrument. Roy Schroedl (pronounced Schraedl) specializes in 12-string acoustic guitar. The genre is acoustic rock, which covers a lot of territory. The vocals could be a cross between Tom Waits, Jimmy Buffett and Cat Stevens. Then again you have to judge for yourself.

Roy has written the vast majority of the music on four CD’s with the acoustic band Okham’s Razor. His playlist ranges from the Beatles to Dave Matthews. Shows feature music from the original CD’s and material from 120+ artists. Roy has appeared on radio and TV programs. His venues range from restaurants to local bars, private parties and a resort popular with the Chicago crowd. He invites requests at all of his shows.

Though a native of Wisconsin, Roy Schroedl has lived in Minnesota, Florida, Michigan, and Germany. He has travelled with his 12-string to 18 European countries, Canada, and Australia. He also took a working vacation to New Zealand, playing for three weeks in Nelson in 2010. In 2012 he played a 45-minute impromptu set in a bar in Izumi, Japan! February 2013 found Roy on stage at the Klompett Soccer Arena in Sandefjord, Norway. (He even told a joke in Norwegian).

Rockin out your favs and a few of ours too! We play a mix of radio hits and a few radio rock originals from our live album, “Two Hearts To Mend”.

Jay Vonn is an Americana/Folk musician from Illinois who wanders the country in a Chevy van with his dog. A writer of songs since he knew how to talk, he has played clubs and festivals all over the Midwest and beyond.

Join us for a one-hour performance on the music the Mississippi has inspired, from the 19th century to the present day, with reflections from LA’s thirty years on the river.

Join Ted and Robyn for a fun afternoon of music!

The comedy is fast and furious in this play reading of “God’s Favorite” written by Neil Simon.

The story centers on Joe Benjamin, a modern day ‘Job’ who has a difficult life with his demanding wife, ungrateful children and wise cracking household employees. Just when you think things couldn’t get worse, Joe gets a visit from Sidney Lupton, a.k.a. A Messenger from God (and compulsive film buff).  Sidney’s mission is test Joe’s faith and report back to “the Boss.” The laughs are non-stop.

These
