Healthy United Methodist Church 7612 Perry Street, Mt. Healthy, Mt. Healthy Ohio Price: Donations at the Door The Queen City Balladeers Presents their beloved Leo Coffee House each year from September - May. Come see a show! APRIL @ The Big Song Music House!   Stephanie Bettman & Luke Halpin   FRIDAY, April 10th at 8pm Stephanie Bettman is at the least a triple threat. An accomplished writer, singer, and fiddler: her lyrics are infused with wit and wisdom, poetry and insight. Vocally she draws comparison to the soaring soprano of Joan Baez and the plaintive emotion of Emmylou Harris. Meanwhile, her fiddling, which combines elements of bluegrass and jazz, is inspired by such masters as Stephane Grappelli, Byron Berline and Johnny Gimble.    Luke Halpin is a renowned multi-instrumentalist. A master of the guitar and the mandolin, impressive on fiddle, banjo, and adept at nearly anything he picks up. Halpin draws inspiration from the likes of Sam Bush, Mark O'Connor and Tony Rice and holds his own in comparison. A dynamic and sensitive vocalist himself, the harmony blend he and Ms Bettman achieve is chilling and at times simply transcendent.  His quirky sense of humor is a perfect foil to Stephanie's dry witty presence.  Check out Bettman & Halpin on Youtube: HERE   Doors open at 7pm for potluck and mingling.  A $20 donation at the door is suggested.
