Headliners for the 2008 South Florida Folk Festival

Headliners

Chad and Jeremy
The Chad & Jeremy story starts in 1963. One of the first groups to make it big in America during the 'British Invasion', they then pushed the envelope of psych-folk-rock with cult classic albums such as "Of Cabbages and Kings" and "The Ark". They spent much of the next thirty years in an on-again off-again musical relationship, but now they are back with a vengeance, touring various parts of the world to the delight of their fans.

Mason Williams
While his composition Classical Gas may be the calling card by which Mason Williams is best recognized, his career has been marked with accomplishments and awards in art; comedy; poetry, book, and script writing; as well as music composition and performance that appeals to a variety of audiences. One of the many highlights of Mason's career has been his long-standing relationship with Tom & Dick Smothers. As head writer for The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, he developed both his musical and comedic talents.

The Kennedys
The story of Pete and Maura Kennedy's personal and professional relationship, now in its second decade, is somewhere between fate and a fairytale. How else can you explain a chance meeting in Austin between two East Coast-born musicians that immediately sparked a songwriting collaboration, a first date at Buddy Holly's grave, an enduring romance, and a creative partnership that radiates warmth, positive energy, and captivating music?

Zoe Lewis
Originally from England, Zoe now resides in Provincetown, Cape Cod. She plays jazz, jump jive, latin grooves, swing, international folk, funk originals on anything from the piano to the spoons! She describes her blend of music as WORLDBEAT-VAUDEVILLE.

Cosy Sheridan
Sheridan is one of the pre-eminent songwriters on the folk scene documenting the lives of modern women. She places the fast-paced culture of 21st century America into a mythic context with insightful, energetic and at times comic effect. Who else would think to make botox injections the modern equivalent of the beauty cream of Persephone, Queen of the Underworld? Or to find a modern Psyche reminiscing about Eros from a women's prison?
