College to Host Buddy Mondlock Sept. 29

Coffeyville Community College is pleased to welcome Buddy Mondlock to the Spencer/Rounds Performing Arts Theater, September 29, at 10:30 a.m.

Mondlock has been nominated for the Independent Music Award for Best Album-Singer-Songwriter. Some great songwriters have recorded his songs on their own albums. Guy Clark, Nanci Griffith and Janis Ian.

His new album, The Edge of the World, is his most personal recording to date. The song cycle is an introspective journey from childhood through to the disintegration of a marriage and beyond. And while always a wry observer of the social interactions of human beings, the song Big Fish, Shallow Water takes on a political edge as well. Buddy did most of the playing and singing himself, with a little help from longtime friend, bassist Mike Lindauer. Then co-producer Jim Tullio added just the right sonic touches of percussion and atmospheric guitar to glue it all together.

This event is open to the public, free of charge.
