Celebrate the start of the New Moon Coffeehouse’s 37th season with famed and funny singer/songwriter/storyteller/humorist/teacher… Don White. No single label pins him down. He performs at the New Moon Coffeehouse. One of Don’s mentees, acclaimed poet Michelle LaPoetica opens the evening. The coffeehouse is located in the Universalist Unitarian Church, 16 Ashland St, Haverhill MA. Admission to the show is $25; $15 for those ages 21 and under. Tickets for this show are available at the door starting around 6:30; doors open at 7:00. Tickets may be reserved prior to the show by visiting www.newmooncoffeehouse.org.

Don White writes and sings about universal life events, often finding the humor in them, but not always. During his career he’s released ten CDs, three live DVDs, and a book. He’s opened for Arlo Guthrie, Ritchie Havens, Louden Wainwright III, and Taj Mahal. He’s also shared a bill with David Bromberg, Janis Ian, and Lyle Lovett. In addition, White has been featured in storytelling festivals around the country.

As Tony Toledo commented on the New Moon Facebook page: “Don will tickle your funny bone.” True, laughs are guaranteed at a Don White concert. But so is thoughtful and sometimes heartbreaking storytelling and songs. The emotional rollercoaster of a Don White concert will leave you feeling fully content and uplifted.

The New Moon listening room is handicap accessible. And there is plenty of free parking around the church. Before the show, and during the intermission, delicious homemade desserts and hot and cold non-alcoholic beverages are for sale. Audience members also can buy merchandise from the artists and usually meet them in person. For more info, go to the NM website or call 617-327-0542. Do not call the church.
