“Stan Woodman is an attentive, compassionate and intuitive teacher.

- With opening Guest Matt the Electrician

Singer-songwriters Deb Talan & Steve Tannen began writing together the night they met, and soon formed indie band The Weepies. On the strength of their simple yet insightful songwriting and distinctive harmonies, they quietly sold more than 1.5 million records with over 54 million streams on Spotify, 25+ million views on YouTube, and over 110k social media followers. They married and had three children, rarely touring but continuing to release their music; five records over seven years.

Just before Christmas 2013, when their youngest son was 17 months old, Deb Talan was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer. She was in chemo by New Year’s Eve.

In 2014, Deb beat cancer, and The Weepies recorded the best album of their career. Coming back from the edge sharpened their skills and focus. At 16 songs and almost an hour long, SIRENS shows a band at the height of its powers.

Matt the Electrician

Despite the name, Matt the Electrician is no longer an electrician, focusing instead on a music career that has spanned the course of two decades, a dozen records, and thousands of shows. His music, however, remains rooted in his blue collar beginnings, with lyricism that embraces the day-to-day, the mundane, the beauty of the ordinary.

Matt’s most recent release, a double CD called The Doubles, is the culmination of a 2-year vinyl 45 collaborative project.

- The prolific works of Charles Dickens have produced many notable quotes, maybe none more so than "God bless us, every one!" This brief exclamation, uttered through the small voice of Tiny Tim, is a most apt summation of one man's journey from self-absorption to benevolence toward his fellow man.

Please join us as librarian Elaine Provenzano explores the history of this classic holiday tale about Scrooge, Marley, the Three Ghosts, and Cratchit family; what it meant to Charles Dickens, and how it affected Victorian readers.

All are welcome to join us for tea and biscuits after the presentation.
