Married acoustic duo The Levins and Americana songstress Loretta Hagen will
share the stage for the first time at
the Turning Point Cafe, for a magical afternoon of music.
Ira and Julia Levin combine harmony-driven acoustic folk rock with wistful
overtones of the 1930s with the intention of putting a smile on your face
… sounds like The Mamas and The Papas having coffee with Cole Porter.. They’ve been performing in the Hudson Valley,
Catskills, northern NJ and NYC, winning the 2011 Connecticut Folk Festival
songwriting competition. Their recent CD, My
Friend Hafiz, inspired by the poetry of Sufi mystic poet Hafiz, was
in the top 20 on folk radio and WFUV’s John Platt included the CD in his Best
for 2013. They are currently working on new material for a 2014 release. www.thelevinsmusic.com

Loretta Hagen
delivers rich alto vocals, polished award winning lyrics and tightly woven
harmonies; the hallmark of her musical career. A 2013 JAM Awards "Top
Female Songwriter of the Year", NJ Folk Festival Songwriter Competition
Winner, and CT Folk Festival Finalist, Loretta recently released her
third CD, Mud and Stone, featuring uplifting heartfelt ballads, playful
up-tempo country swing, and cool bluesy grooves. "Mud and Stone" debuted
at #10 on Folk DJ Charts, consistently #1 on the Roots Music Report for NJ.
"This effort [Mud and
Stone] is first class, top tier, a true contender as an artist to reckon with."
