Thursday May 15, THIRD COAST MUSIC SONGWRITER SHOWCASE celebrates it's 2nd Anniversary Show with performances “In The Round” featuring Cleve and Sweet Mary of the legendary band Greezy Wheels, Tim Henderson, one of America's outstanding folk song writers, and Texas honky-tonk stalwart Mary Cutrufello.
Every third Thursday at Austin Java, JIM PATTON & SHERRY BROKUS host and perform with fine Americana songwriters at Third Coast Music Songwriters Showcase, ” Austin's Best kept Secret”.
Cleve & Sweet Mary
Two of Austin's most legendary performers, Cleve (fearless leader) and Sweet Mary (fearless star soloist) of Austin music pioneers, 'Greezy Wheels' are doing duets and having way too much fun. Cleve, the Wheels' founder and principle songwriter, and Sweet Mary, one of Austin's most beloved fiddlers, are performing Greezy tunes, along with fabulous new material and much much more. From cosmic cowboys to Andy Warhol's superstars, everyone loves "dem ole Greezy Wheels," and Cleve And Sweet Mary bring the Greezy spirit with them. They've played with everyone from Willie to Springsteen, with one of the most famous performances occurring when Sweet Mary taught Jean Luc Ponty how to play the 'Orange Blossom Special' then joined him on stage with Frank Zappa And the Mothers Of Invention. Cleve's description of their music: "Ozarks meet big city - blows up real good."

Tim Henderson
Tim Henderson was born in the coal country of West Virginia. He is considered by many to be one of America’s outstanding folk song writers. Tim has tried to play nearly everything with strings. He considers his playing adequate, but says that you must judge for yourself. In performing, he uses a gut string classical guitar with a flamenco neck. Tim says, “ I would sooner part with my right arm. As a vocalist, I can only tell you that I enunciate well and sing only marginally better than Willie Nelson, and maybe a little louder.” Tom Paxton calls Tim “The bear who laughs…Loud”.

Mary Cutrufello
A staple on the Texas music scene during the '90s, Mary Cutrufello spent the last seven years in Minnesota and recently relocated to Austin. This Connecticut-raised, Yale-educated country troubadour has a powerful voice, sure hands on six strings and a sack full of songs. Be prepared for a rousing set featuring material from "35", a CD in the works as well as selections from her previous discs.
