Music and comedy at the Coffee Loft

If you need an antidote for the wintertime blues, head on down to the Coffee Loft, where comical singer-songwriter Howie Newman will be holding court on Saturday night, Feb. 18. Newman combines funny songs with short comedy bits and lots of audience participation.

His most recent hit, “My Baby Can’t Parallel Park,” has been aired on NPR’s Car Talk and several local radio stations (including WICN). Other song topics include cell phones, baseball and middle age dating.

It’s not your typical folk concert, but so what? There’s no cover and material is suitable for all ages. The show runs from 7-9 p.m. Info: www.coffee-loft.com or 508-251-1431.
