Folk troubadour Bill Staines, one of the most durable and beloved singers on the folk music scene today, opens the 2018 Our Times Coffeehouse season, performing Friday, January 19 at 8 PM. In his 28th year with OTC, his music is more on-topic than ever, a lyrical mix of traditional tunes with his own contemporary folk ballads. His humorous tales of life on the road and observations of everyday people provide an entertaining blend of story and song.

Doors open at 7:15 PM that evening for ticket sales. The suggested donations are $20 adults and $15 students with ID; sorry, no pre-sales are available. Our Times Coffeehouse is in the Ethical Humanist Society building on Old Country Road, two miles west of Meadowbrook Parkway next to the blue water tower.
