   This Wednesday, May 20, 9--11:30 p.m., at Folk Night at   
   The Ship Pub in St. John's, Newfoundland, the headliner   
   is blues musician Dave Mundy.   
      
   Cover is $5, there are door prizes, there is an open   
   mic set between the two headline sets, and open mic   
   performers get a free beer.  Also the kitchen is open   
   until 8 p.m.   
      
   Here is the blurb from nlfolk.com :   
      
   With a transparency akin to being buck naked in a church congregation,   
   Delta Blues musician Dave Mundy is set to release two decades worth of   
   original recorded music this spring, starting in his new home of St.   
   John's Newfoundland.   
      
   "The Porch album," his first recording debuted in March 2015. It   
   features harmonica and guitar delta duo tracks and other songs with full   
   band, funk and soul stylings. This mirrors Dave's live projects and   
   provides enough platforms for his diverse and prolific songwriting   
   skills.   
      
       "I mix a dirty delta sound with funk, R&B, soul, folk, even   
   bluegrass and trad."I take the folk genre all over the place, but lately   
   I'm lovin a song that shares real soul while at the same time makin' you   
   really, really want to dance."   
      
   Reaching out to connect with the core of humanity with a big voice and   
   sweet harp playing, Dave is for the first time dipping into 20 years of   
   recorded and unreleased material to offer his groove to the people.   
   While the recording of the Porch album happened in Athens, Georgia in   
   2009, Dave is working with local musicians Adrian House, John Clarke and   
   Dave Hill to put together a series of shows in St. John's and the   
   mainland later this year.   
      
      
   Next week (May 27) there will be a traditional celtic   
   unamplified (round table) jam session hosted this   
   month by Fergus Brown-O'Byrne.
