Tickets are $10, $9 for supporting members. A veteran. of New England's thriving folk scene, Wheeler is as much known for her inventive and quirky fun songs as for her ballads. She's also known as a ~ brillian comedian in her live per- wr TR TT KR TAS formances. Bold and opinionated one moment, yet sensitive and introspective the next, Wheeler is charismatic and poetic, a philoso- early 70s folk scene. She hooked up with singerJonathan Edwards, joined his band and recorded her firstalbumin 1986, with Edwards producing. The album was a criti- cal success and launched Wheeler's career. Five albums later, she's wowing the music world again with the release of her newest album, Sylvia Hotel. It's a collection of self-penned songs that finds Wheeler both at her sweetest and her funniest and includes her powerful anthem against gun violence, “If It Were Up to Me.” Doors open for the conert at 7:30 p.m. Seating is first-come, first served. No advance tickets will be sold. Desserts and bever- pher and a storyteller. The enigmatic Wheeler grew up in Timonium, MD, where she played the Baltimore and Wash- ington DC folk venues before head- ing for New England to join the ages will be available for purchase throughout the evening.
