CAB Coffeehouse Concert: Chris KozaFebruary 17, 2010 at 7–8 p.m.
Minneapolis native singer/songwriter Chris Koza will be stopping by Gustavus on his Spring tour! Usually performing with this critically acclaimed band Rogue Valley, Chris will be playing a special solo show for free!
"Koza knocks the listener off balance by pairing his avant-garde lyrical inclinations with precise folk-pop melodies of a largely traditional bent delivered in a clear, pleasing tenor, recalling '70s singer-songwriters like Jackson Browne and Paul Simon in the process."
-- Rob Van Alstyne, Pulse of the Twin Cities; Minneapolis, MN
"Passionate lyrics sung with a determined sincerity are branded with his trademark melodies like a Wyoming steer in a weathered ranch. Backing up his vocals and acoustic guitar are a fine threesome who are more than competent musicians themselves. Threading the needle finely between indie folk and pop-rock, Koza is a musician that modern master musicians like Oberst would cite with reverence."
