Mar 26: Anthony DaCosta with Abbie Gardner
Anthony da Costa is a Folk/Indie Rock, Singer/Songwriter from Pleasantville, NY. His writing and performing draws from a deep well of rich musical influences, ranging from Bob Dylan and The Band, to Dan Bern and The Beatles, to Neil Young and Johnny Cash. Known for his unique interpretations of classics drawn heavily from the Dylan and Bern catalogs, Anthony has gained strong acceptance for his original work. He has released five CDs, including “Quality Time” (2007). Anthony is a prolific, largely self-taught musician, playing guitar, bass, cello, mandolin, harmonica, piano, drums, djembe, trombone and just about anything else he picks up! He has performed at the Paramount Center for the Arts, the Postcrypt Coffeehouse at Columbia University, Pleasantville Music Festival and at “guerilla showcases” at Falcon Ridge and NERFA. In February 2007, at the invitation of the Folk Alliance (folkalliance.org)—of which he is a proud member—Anthony will formally showcase at the Alliance’s 19th Annual International Convention in Memphis.
