Joel Rafael is an award winning, internationally recognized songwriter
from San Diego County, California. Among his accomplishments was
winning the Kerrville Folk Festival "New Folk Emerging Songwriter
Award" in 1995.

Rafael is also considered to be one of the most natural interpreters
of Woody Guthrie's songs, and has been a featured performer at the
annual Woody Guthrie Folk Festival in Woody's hometown of Okemah,
Oklahoma since it's inception a decade ago. His two most recent CDs on
Inside Recordings (an independent record company started by Jackson
Browne and his management team) contain over two-dozen Woody Guthrie
compositions including five previously unpublished Woody Guthrie
lyrics to which Rafael composed the music. The lyrics were given to
Joel by Nora Guthrie, Woody's daughter, who directs the "Woody Guthrie
Archives" and administrates the use of Woody's written and illustrated
works.

As many of you know, I had surgery for a fractured left arm on
Monday. I'm doing well and the show WILL GO ON this Saturday night at
the house. Come hear Joel and Allen - you won't be disappointed. We
have a few seats left, and I'm guessing this one will also sell out.

Looking forward to seeing you this weekend,
Chris
