AUGUST 2018
UPDATE: The weekly Mad Ripple Hootenanny is on hiatus (as of June 2018). Previously, it happened every Friday night at Studio 2 Cafe, 6:30-9 p.m. The following is a sampling of the incredible talent who’ve Hooted and been part of our rich and beautiful music community. (Note: The Hoot’s web-goddess fell down on the job and did not update the calendar from Jan.-June 2018. Her apologies — and thanks to all the incredible musicians!)
