ABOUT THE SHOWCASE:
The Songsalive! Los Angeles Showcase features a new venue, a new date, and a new format! Songsalive returns to Hallenbeck's after a couple of years. Hallenbeck's is an well known venue for acoustic Los Angeles Songwriters and performers - they have a small stage with a great sound system, great food and drinks, it is family friendly too, with free parking on the street.

ARTISTS:
We have four performers who will be doing mini-sets in two rounds - so nice you hear them all twice! And we'll have a short intermission in the middle for food, stretching, and conversation.

Kaye Reznick
I am a contemporary folksinger/songwriter, performing primarily in L.A.'s southbay area. I am passionate about my songwriting, creating stories containing a mixture of family, a measure of protest, a pinch of love & lust, and a good portion of irreverence. www.myspace.com/kayereznick
