ARTS

Guitar virtuoso Woody LIssaur will entertain al fresco diners, shoppers and the pedestrian crowd at the corner of Church Street and Bloomfield Avenue, Thursday, July 19, 7:00 – 10:00 pm, as part of the Church Street Summer Music Festival, sponsored by Tapastry Restaurant. (In the event of inclement weather, the concert will move indoors to Tapastry Restaurant's main dining room at 12 Church Street, Montclair.)

Lissaur has toured widely throughout North America and Europe with Chrysalis Records’ Laura Hunter, A&M’s Gordon Michaels, Lifesong’s Crack the Sky, new wave pioneers Multiplex and Strangelove, US Bang (warming up for Kix and Aerosmith’s Joe Perry) on keyboards with Pebbles and the Bam Bam Boys in front of 81,000 people, on bass with Maryland’s #1 country band (Alamo Band), and many other acts.

The popular Thursday and Saturday night outdoor summer concert series is managed and hosted by Meg Beattie and Julian Keenan, who sometimes do a set or two themselves. In the event of inclement weather, the concerts move indoors to the Tapastry Restaurant main dining room at 12 Church Street, Montclair.

Tapastry Restaurant owners Cheryl and Greg Spinelli, are delighted to present the annual music festival once again as an opportunity to foster the arts while serving up their exciting al fresco tapas dining experience. Tapastry's authentic menu is created by Chef Gonzolo Fernandez. BYOB. No Cover. Tapastry Restaurant, 12 Church Street, Montclair. For reservations, call 973-233-0216.
