Spook Handy, singer and songwriter, performs 
folk, blues, bluegrass and rock 

Performing at the Watchung Arts Center on Saturday, March 24, 2001 at 8:00pm is the songwriter-performer, Spook Handy.

Spook Handy weaves the musical influence of folk, blues, bluegrass and rock into a timely and pertinent message for the new millennium- that we re all her to live, love and learn- and this can be done in a fun and fulfilling way. 

Spook has acquired a reputation for making his performances intimate experiences for the audiences to long remember.  That coupled with lively interplay of Spook s singing, acoustic guitar picking and harmonica playing have brought him much recognition:

 In 1993, Spook was named best folk artist by Aquarian Weekly.

In 1996, the East Coast Rocker chose his debut CD  Freedom Is Your Destiny  as a Top Ten Folk Album.

In 1997, Spook s cover of the Donovan song  Colours  was chosen as track one of the  Acoustic Rainbow  an internationally distributed folk music sampler put out by PoetMan Records of Lexington, Kentucky.  Consequently, Spook s songs are receiving airplay on hundreds of radio stations.

In 1998, Spook was selected to perform and MC the  New Folk Showcase  at the New Jersey Folk Festival.

In 2001, Spook released his second and third CD s,  Breakfast at Bill s (a full band recording) and  Breakfast by Myself ( an  unplugged  solo album). They have already been receiving ample airplay and positive reviews.

 Whether true stories or dreamed up fantasies, comically light in nature or deeply insightful, Spool s music has a way of touching and nurturing the human spirit.  Amusing anecdotes and spontaneous interaction with audience members further enhance a feeling of listener involvement.  People laugh and cry during his performance and they leave feeling good about life and themselves
