Join us at 7PM on Friday, October 3rd at Boscawen’s High Street Coffee House as we welcome 'Davey O.' as our feature musician. It's no surprise that Buffalo, NY born and bred songwriter Davey O. has been described by Buffalo News critic Jeff Miers as having "a journalist’s eye for detail and poet’s ear for the well-turned observation". Embarking on a twenty-year journey that has resulted in a collection of justly-earned, highly introspective songs, Davey crafts pure Americana that is not of the social and political consciousness, but drawn from the deep well of experience and human emotion - no hackneyed story lines, no insincere polish, just an unflinching poet's look at life. The characters woven seamlessly into stories of which the song itself becomes the soundtrack for the movie playing inside the listener's head.
Armed with a steady, rhythmic pulse on his Gibson guitar, and a no apologies rust-belt work ethic, Davey puts rubber to asphalt, entertaining attentive, diverse audiences at listening rooms, coffeehouses, nightclubs, festivals, colleges and universities throughout the Northeast, Midwest, Midsouth and Atlantic U.S. - performances that result in engagement and communion between performer and audience through story and song.

Boscawen’s High Street Coffee House is a “Open Mic” venue, welcoming musicians, poets and comedians to take the stage for two songs or ten minutes. Held in the sanctuary of the Boscawen Congregational Church, the acoustics are 2nd to none! Doors open at 6:15 pm, the music starts at 7:00 pm, and the evening is typically wrapped up by 10pm.
Bring your appetite as there is a great array of refreshments for a light dinner or a simply sweet or salty snack that is all available by donation. Admission to Boscawen’s High Street Coffee House is always FREE, though a donation basket is passed at intermission to help support the feature musician.
Priority for open mic will be given to those who did not perform at last month’s event. Performers need to sign up ahead of time by emailing Liz at the Coffee House email inbox at
