Original Singer/Songwriter Folk Music
Concert Calendar 14th Season
Our small, intimate, smoke-free and alcohol-free
"Coffeehouse" music room is host to
singer/songwriters from all over the country
who stop in Edom to entertain with their original
music. With concerts approximately once each
month, most of the money collected for ticket
sales will go to the artist. Coffee, Soft Drinks,
and Desserts are available before and during
the concerts.
ADMISSION POLICY:
Since our room is relatively small (around 50-70
seats), we strongly recommend purchasing
your tickets in advance to insure seating.
If you purchase in advance, you will be on the
"Early Entry List" and be the first
to enter the music room! Admission prices are
indicated for each concert. Advance ticket purchases
can be made up to the day before the concert
using the BUY NOW button or by calling 903-852-2781
to arrange payment by check or by credit card.
Checks must be received no later than 2 days
prior to the concert (along with contact info
in the event the concert is already sold out).
Credit Card payments will incur a service fee
(amount indicated in each concert description)
to cover the cost of processing and any other
fees (so that performers will still get the
full admission). PLEASE NOTE that we are NOT
a non-profit organization so any donations are
NOT tax-deductible. In order to maintain a quiet
listening environment, we ask that members of
our audience please be over 13 years of age
unless otherwise indicated.
The Old Firehouse is a "labor
of love" brought to you by Jeff & the
late Judy Gottesman. While we are not a "not
for profit" organization, we still need
to make a small profit in order to cover our
expenses. Please consider making a donation
to enable us to continue bringing the music
we all love to Edom. Donations are NOT tax-deductible,
but sure help us make ends meet. Thanks.....Jeff

Jennings & Keller is an award-winning
nationally touring duo based out of Florida. They
offer up 21st Century Americana with influences
in folk, jazz, and roots music. They fuse many
different musical elements into a unique eclectic
style that is refreshingly diverse.
Dana Keller, a veteran pedal steel, dobro, and
guitar player, has spent years performing on stage
or in the studio with such luminaries as Vince
Gill, Ricky Skaggs, Stevie Wonder, Larry Graham,
Marvin Gaye, Dave Mason, Johnny Rodriguez and
The Allen Brothers, to name a few.
Laurie Jennings Oudin is a former Shakespearean
actress who has spent many years on the stage.
Her theater background combined with a lifetime
of professional singing gives her an obvious command
of the stage as well as the songs she sings. With
a vocal style that ranges from early Joni Mitchell
to Emmylou Harris, Laurie leaves audiences mesmerized
by her stunning vocal delivery.
In the 16 years of playing together, Jennings
& Keller have released four CDs. They have
received accolades and airplay from radio stations
at one end of the country to the other.
