About Ellis...

Ellis is a rising star on the folk music circuit, creating a buzz after being voted “Most Wanted to Return” and performing on the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival preview tour. This talented singer, songwriter and guitarist has since been invited back to several première listening rooms including Club Passim, Outpost in the Burbs, Caffe Lena, and P.A.C.E. as well as a formal showcase at the 2007 NERFA conference. She has also been asked to open for several established artists such as Patty Larkin, Richard Shindell, Cheryl Wheeler, and Todd Snider.

Ellis has a wealth of accomplishments including songwriting and performance awards, but even more outstanding is her sincere graciousness and ability to remain down to earth while her career is riding high. Known for her vibrant and open-hearted nature and contagious sense of humor, Ellis’ music is described as joyful, unpretentious modern folk with a slight hint of country inspired by her southern roots.

Ahrre Maros

Ahrre Maros http://www.ahrre.com and http://www.fairtradecoffee.org has been presenting concerts in Northern New Jersey since 1992, when he first opened Ahrre's Coffee Roastery at the Common Ground Café, in Summit. Unfortunately the Café closed back in 1997 at which point he sought out other venues for his concert presentations. Currently he runs two concert series; the "Coffee With Conscience Concert Series" in Westfield and the "Powerful Women of Song" Series at the Watchung Arts Center in Watchung.>
>
The Coffee With Conscience Concert Series http://www.coffeewithconscience.org is now in its eighth season and presents a wide variety of Singer/Songwriters who are professional and touring. The musical styles will vary but at the core you will always find 'acoustic pop.' The CWC Series is unique! It creates community around an evening of great music supporting worthy causes. The events are intended to provide the type of entertainment that is missing from so many of our communities…Entertainment that fosters community and friendship, structured around a good cause, presents a win-win situation for everyone involved.>
>
The 'Powerful Women of Song' Series takes place at the Watchung Arts Center http://www.watchungarts.org/PowerfulWomen.htm . Eight incredible evenings of original music are planned for the 2007-2008 Season, focussing on the passion expressed in music written and performed by women. Proceeds from ticket sales will help support the Watchung Arts Center, whose mission is to "Keep the Arts Alive" in the greater Watchung Area.
