Carrie Newcomer’s new Rounder release, The Geography of Light, is about navigating and exploring the appearance of light and shadow in our lives. In a world that encourages us to move faster and think bigger, Newcomer invites the listener to slow down and reflect on the small things that make life worthwhile.

  • Newcomer toured with Alison Krauss and Union Station in Europe and the U.S. and recorded the title track of her 2002 The Gathering of Spirits album with Krauss. Krauss went on to introduce Nickel Creek to Newcomer’s song, I Should’ve Known Better, which the band recorded on their Grammy-winning, gold-selling album, This Side (produced by Krauss).
  • In 2007 Newcomer recorded a live concert DVD with folk legends Holly Near and Bernice Johnson Reagon, was commissioned to write the YMCA national theme song, composed music for the Indiana Repertory Theater’s production of Bad Dates, and collaborated with author Scott Russell Sanders and fellow songwriters Krista Detor, Tim Grimm, Tom Roznowski and Michael White in the album and theatrical production entitled Wilderness Plots.
  • Newcomer has presented workshops at dozens of campuses and venues around the U.S. and is often sought out for her unique perspective and ability to help participants reach deep inside to develop their own creative voice.

    Java Notes will present a series of coffeehouse concerts, these evenings will be designed to raise funds for local non-profit organizations. This is our third season and shows will be held on special evenings at 8:00 p.m. Each evening will feature a different folk music performer, equal exchange (fair trade) coffee and hot chocolate, and desserts. When are shows are held at The Brink Lounge, their bar and menu are available for purchase.  The proceeds from admissions will go to the partner organization of the evening. 

    Java Notes has selected The Outreach Center as the non-profit organization for the third season.  The Outreach Center's mission is to promote equality and quality of life for LGBT people.  Their vision is to create a community where the presence and contributions of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender people are welcomed and celebrated; where intolerance is challenged and defeated; where justice prevails; and where civil rights of all people are valued and respected.
