Singer-Songwriter Sunday is a recurring event that showcases local and regional musical talent—especially artists who write and perform their own original songs. This kick off will be featuring Patrick Nycz and Joe Peters. Joe Peters is an American singer-songwriter who has released over a dozen CDs of original music since 1998, mostly under the band name, The Joedai Warriors. Joe grew up in the Midwest during the late 60s and early 70s, and his songs harken back to a time when young people sought the experience of peace, love and adventure and expressed this search in their music. Patrick Nycz is a musician based in West Lafayette, Indiana, known for his work with the Conrad Bone Band, a fun-loving rock ’n’ roll group that blends original compositions with crowd-pleasing covers. The band released an album titled Unleashed, showcasing their distinctive sound and easygoing vibe.
