John Platt hailed Amy Speace as an “Artist to Watch” in last year’s WFUV picks. 17-year-old Anthony Da Costa was the youngest winner ever of the Kerrville Folk Festival's New Folk and the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival’s Emerging Artist Competitions and has opened for Livingston Taylor, Susan Werner and Anais Mitchell. Milton, who is no stranger to the Jeanne Rimsky Theater, also recently sold out Joe’s Pub. A fantastic night of great music not to be missed!
