SUMMARY:The April Fools
DESCRIPTION:Buskin & Batteau have been winning hearts and minds with their soulful acoustic balladry and fun-filled performances for more years than they care to remember. \nChristine Lavin grew up one of nine children whose father was Thomas F. Lavin and mother was Josephine Crawford Lavin. She started her professional life as a waitress/bread baker at the Caffe Lena in Saratoga Springs\, NY in 1975 where she met the legendary Dave Van Ronk who encouraged her to study guitar with him in NYC. For many years she was a singer/songwriter/ guitarist/recording artist/author/videographer based in NYC\, but now she lives in Rochester NY where she plans to attend Eastman School Of Music in the fall. \nAs a recording artist John’s 1994 debut album Entering Marion got an Indie Award HM (the independent record labels’ Grammy) for Best Comedy Album. Many of his witty topical songs have been featured on NPR’s “Morning Edition.” His songs have been recorded by Christine Lavin\, Judy Collins\, Rosanne Cash and the late Dave Van Ronk\, among many others.  His song “Entering Marion” is included in Dr. Demento’s “50 Greatest Novelty Songs Of All Time.” John is also co-author of the children’s books “This Pretty Planet\,” based on his song\, as well as “The Backwards Birthday Party” (Atheneum) and the teen parody book “The BSAT Official Study Guide” (Running Press). \nCarla Ulbrich is a clean guitar comic now based in Central New Jersey\, with over 20 years of experience blending clean\, observational comedy with sharp\, relatable songwriting. Her shows combine stand-up structure with original songs and parodies that skewer everyday life\, relationships\, and modern absurdities without punching down. She’s a regular feature act at comedy clubs\, libraries\, and folk music venues\, and has appeared at festivals and events including Ladies of Laughter\, MENSA gatherings\, The Philly Folk Festival\, PBS programs\, and nationally recognized comedy showcases.
