Coming Club and Associated Events

  • OFGC Matinee Concert

Richard Smith Website

Richard Smith & Julie Adams

Opening - Pete Cavano

Sunday, July 25th - 4 pm

McConnell Arts Center
777 Evening Street
Worthington, OH 43085

Cost = $20 Advanced Purchase - $25 at the door  (purchase online)

We've said this many times before:  Richard Smith is one of the best finger style guitarists on the planet - bar none!    He was born to play guitar....  And, somehow, he seems to get better every year.  What ever guitar he picks up he seems to be able to play like he's had it in his hands for decades - and, the genre of music that instrument inspires:  country, jazz, Chet, Reed, Travis, standards and classical.  All genres with equal talent and enthusiasm.  His lovely wife, Julie Adams, has no less enthusiasm in her own right and brings a "touch of class" to their duo performance on her cello.   

Pete Cavano will be opening for Richard and Julie.  Pete is about as smooth as any guitarist with his impeccable and intricate playing.  Pete has been playing and teaching guitar in the Cleveland, Ohio area for several decades - and, is a real treat to listen to.  He will also be setting in with Richard to close out the afternoon with an up tempo set of gypsy jazz in the style of the late Django Reinhardt.

 

  • OFGC Tuesday Night Club Jam

We are into our 9th year of having a ball pickin' every Tuesday evening.

We have a Tuesday Night Jam at Scottie's Coffee House, 660 High St, Worthington, OH. 7 till 10..   Come on down and bring your guitars and pick a couple with us.  (directions)
