The Sleepy Hollow Folk Cub is very happy to
host one of our returning performers, and one of the most sharp-eyed and
funniest storytellers we've heard.
From Carnegie Hall to the Dr Demento
Show to the Cowgirl Hall of Fame. Count these, and almost everywhere in
between, as stops along the way for Cosy Sheridan and her music.
Her friend Catie Curtis called her a
combination of Mary Chapin Carpenter, Dr Ruth and Deepak Chopra. We
call her one of the most entertaining performers we know.

Cosy has garnered top
honors from some of the country's most prestigious songwriting contests:
The Kerrville Folk Festival's NewFolk Award, The Telluride Bluegrass
Festival's Troubador Award, and the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival Songwriting
Showcase Award .
She was a voice student at
The Berklee School of Music in the late 80's, and also a guitar student of
the master fingerstyle guitarists Guy Van Duser and Eric Schoenberg. |

She's candid. She's
compassionate. She's very sharp. She'll talk about anything on stage. She
might sing songs about body piercing, a more user-friendly Barbie Doll,
the loneliness of her elderly neighbor, or how small and humble things in
life, like ants, can sew your heart back together. She can bring tears to
your eyes, from sadness or from laughter. She's very good.
The Sleepy Hollow Folk Club door will open with the usual
refreshments on Sunday evening at 6:00, with the performance at
7:00. Suggested donation for the performer is $12. For
other details, see appropriate pages on this site.
