Announcing our next fundraiser, hosted by our friends at Rise of WNY:

If you know us at If Music Be (IMB) you know we can’t imagine anything more inspiring and hopeful (an actual act of resistance!) than hearing our favorite musicians play. Singer/multi-instrumentalist Joe Rozler has been a fixture in the Buffalo music scene for decades. He’s an entertainer and recording artist in pop, jazz, rock, and less classifiable music. Joe has one of the most finely tuned ears for style we have ever encountered. Equally at home singing a lead role in a chamber opera or covering oldies and keeping them new, Joe has written orchestral arrangements and toured Europe with a heavy metal band. In 2008, Rozler was inducted into the Buffalo Music Hall of Fame. We’re proud to call him a friend.

The little cafe with a big heart, Rise of WNY Community Coffeehouse (1643 Hertel Ave. Buffalo) shares our inclusive mission of community connection through music. Thank you to Mike Reid, Rise’s Executive Director, for taking us under his wing as we wait for our space to be restored!

TICKETS: $50/PERSON (capacity limited to 50 seats) includes performance and hors d’oeuvres catered by Romeo&Juliet’s Hertel. Beverages and desserts available for purchase at the cafe.
