Live Music Friday and Saturday Nights at California Organics Market & Cafe
Published on Jul 17, 2013 - 7:27:16 AM
NEVADA CITY, Calif. July 17, 2013 - For the last year, California Organics Market and Cafe has featured free live local music ever Friday and Saturday night in the cafe. The casual, family-friendly setting has attracted a burgeoning scene of music lovers and foodies that faithfully come out every weekend to see local music acts such as Juliet Gobert, Ishaan Judd, Catherine Scholz, The Free Range String Band, Blackbird Quartet, and more.
Organizing the live music nights is Karen Carchidi. Carchidi's roots of supporting and working with local bands runs deep. In the past she has worked at KVMR as an event coordinator organizing the KVMR Celtic Festival, KDVS in Davis booking the popular Live in Studio A program, and at Putumayo World Music before working at California Organics.
"It's in my blood," explains Carchidi. "I've always wanted my own cafe to showcase new artists in an intimate and supportive setting."
Carchidi books mostly acoustic or string bands and on special occasion blues and rock bands. In the case of Bob Mora's Retirement Party last month, over one hundred friends and fans from the community came out to enjoy Mora and friends perform.
"We are giving our regular shoppers and those who have never been to the store or restaurant a reason to stop by and see what is going on," says Carchidi. "But most importantly we are building community around great food and music."
This weekend at the Cafe, American folk rock singer-songwriter Ishaan Judd will perform Friday night and folk trip-hop artist Chloe Day will perform Saturday night. For a full calendar of performers go to www.californiaorganics.com.
California Organics Market and Cafe is located in the 7-Hills Business District at 135 Argall Way, Nevada City. Live music usually starts Friday and Saturday between 6-6:30pm and can go till 9pm. To contact Karen about booking, email her at karen.calorg@gmail.com
