Rhode Island Songwriters Association Showcase at Stone Soup Coffeehouse

RISA encourages, fosters and conducts the art and craft of original lyrical and musical composition; provides educational programs, critique sessions and performance opportunities for all artistic styles; and supports open collaboration within the RISA community. The organization was founded in 1993 by a small group of individuals dedicated to the art of songwriting. As interest in the group grew, so did the RISA membership. With growth came visibility and a broader mission – to establish a songwriting community that would not only nurture Rhode Island and Southeastern New England songwriters, but showcase their many talents as writers, musicians and performers. This evening’s performers will include Mike Laureanno, Katherine Quinn, Maddie Cardoza, Dean Petrella, Scott Lewis, and Tammy Laforest.
