Foster Brown
If you have not had a chance to see Foster Brown before, you are in for a treat. If you have had a chance to see him before, then you know what kind of a treat you are in for. A naturalist for the Cleveland Metroparks System, Foster’s music is all about the beauty and wonder to be found in nature. From the jazzy riffs to soft and lilting ballads Foster will educate and entertain us with just his acoustic guitar and his voice. Once you get the words to a tune called Scit Scat Diddly Doo stuck in your head you will be a fan.
