Featuring: Tret Fure And her new CD "True Compass" May 31, 2008 Social Hour 6:00pm - 7:00pm Concert starts at 7:00pm Cost: $10 - $20 sliding fee scale
Imagine what it would feel like to be sitting in your living room, kickin' back, relaxing, enjoying a nice cup of coffee, or sipping on a glass of wine, while listening to some great music on your stereo. Sound good?! It doesn't get much better than that, right? Well now...imagine what it would be like if instead of listening to this great music on your stereo, you could actually have the singer/songwriter standing right in the middle of your living room performing LIVE!! Sound better? Well, that's exactly what we'll have on Saturday night, May 31st. Tret Fure will be coming to our home, and she will be performing LIVE! You won't want to miss this opportunity, so start filling that empty jar up with your spare change and save your money so you won't miss out on a rare opportunity.
Tret will be focusing primarily on her new CD "True Compass," but she'll also give us the pleasure of enjoying some of our old favorites as well. Also, I'm sure she'll have some CD's available for purchase as well as some of her Tomboy Girl products, so be sure to bring some extra cash incase you find some items you just can't live without.
Feel free to bring whatever beverage you'd like to drink, but no hard liquor (beer, wine, etc is okay). We will provide snacks for you all to munch on. Also, bring your own chair. We will have a few chairs available, but not enough for everyone.
Please RSVP for this event so we know how many women to expect. Weather permitting, we will hold the concert outside.
RSVP for this event!!

Tret Fure's Biography
Winner of the 2004 South Florida Folk Festival Singer/Songwriter Competition Best Up-Tempo and Best Overall
2004 Winner of the Phyllis Schliessman Award for Outstanding Contributions to Women’s Music
One of the most prolific artists in the contemporary singer-songwriter arena, Tret Fure is extraordinarily talented. Last year found her winning the prestigious South Florida Folk Festival Songwriting Competition in two out of three categories, Best Up-Tempo and Best Overall, as well as the Phyllis Schliessman Award for Outstanding Contributions to Women’s Music. In addition to being a gifted songwriter, Fure possesses an uncanny mastery of musical technology. Over the past 30 years, Fure has engineered and produced countless recordings by a variety of artists, including her own work.
This writer, producer, engineer, vocalist and gifted instrumentalist has navigated her career with integrity and determination. After releasing her premier album on MCA records in 1973, titled Tret Fure, and becoming one of the first women sound engineers in the US, she left the mainstream music industry. Armed with a fierce desire to retain full artistic control, Fure began exploring the independent side of the industry and soon discovered the blossoming genre known as Women’s Music. She has been a major player in that field ever since. Now after 3 acoustic releases on her own label, Tomboy girl Records, she has re-established herself in the folk world....
