August 3 – Paul DeCoster
Paul DeCoster combins his mastery of the guitar with poignant soul searching lyrics that speak to audiences the world over, his performances have been met with critical acclaim and have led him to play with other well known artists such as Deni Bonet (Carnegie Hall concert Violinist), Grammy Winning drummer/percussionist Rich Kulsar (Lucy Kalantari and The Jazz Cats) and singer/songwriter/producer Fleza Doza (Brooklyn Native Studios), among others. His introduction to music at a very early age deepened his passion to find out the intricacies and possibilities of the spoken and unspoken word through musical expression. “I was always drawn to rhythm and melody. Its power is so magical that it can transport you from the daily grind of life to a hopeful place” DECOSTER relates.
