Raina Rose

This past monday we had the talented, acoustic folk singer/song writer Raina Rose preform. The show was organized by the "F" word class (women studies)to raise money for the new haven project. The show was opened by two students, with Raina joining in for a few songs. Her poetic honesty enticed the audience. Some have called her the love child of Paul Simon & Ani Difranco. She sang songs from her newest album, "Raina Rose...Despite the Crushing Weight of Gravity." Her energy filled the room rising people off the commfy couches to the dance floor. After the show she was so personable and humble...a real muysician. She sold some CDs and had an army duffle full of recycled shirts with her design. The embossed design was of a tree the blossomed into the neck of a guitar, with fiddle heads and her name.
it was a beautifully relaxed show and the "F" word class raised enough money for new haven.
