The Aster is located at 125 SE Main St (by St. Anthony Main), Minneapolis. Connected parking is available. Come for dinner and drinks and stay for the 8:30 show. Bill will be doing a mix of new and classic material.
Bill is excited and delighted to share the stage with his extremely talented new friend, Telae. She is a Minnesota native who has been singing and writing music for over three decades. (Evidently, she started in kindergarten.) With musical influences from church songs to jazz and folk, Telae has been inspired by artists like Carole King, Stevie Wonder and Billie Holiday. She aims to continue to inspire others with her own powerful gift of song. Telae has formally studied music performance in the cities of Chicago and Minneapolis and has spent time encouraging youth to find their own unique voice over the past 10 years, teaching in classrooms and through private voice lessons. Telae believes that love is the most powerful energy in the universe and, combined with the art of music, can be an unstoppable force for positive change in our world.
Beneath a canopy of trees on the prettiest cobblestone street in Minneapolis, the Aster Cafe beckons with flickering candlelight and romantic charm. Overlooking both the Mississippi River and the downtown skyline, their European courtyard and bespoke dining room welcome you to savor fresh, inventive dishes (no deep fryers!) and custom cocktails, curated wines, and craft beers. “The best place for a date,” whether it’s a first date or a fifty-year anniversary celebration.

So, the Sunday following Easter the faithful gather to celebrate, tell jokes and laugh at the forces of evil. I will be doing a 20-minute set of new and old material. Who doesn’t need a laugh these days?
