SUMMARY:Toshi Reagon\, Singer/Songwriter is special guest for event 
DESCRIPTION:  This series focuses on the art of songwriting and it&rsquo;s special place within the genre of writing. Singer and songwriter Toshi Reagon will not only share her thoughts on the craft\, but will also perform original music. Plus there will be Q &amp; A. In some ways\, singer Toshi Reagon is a throwback to classic R &amp; B artists\, like Stevie Wonder or Prince\, or old school rock group like Led Zeppelin; she can take any style\, update it\, and make it her own with incredible ease. Toshi is an artist who&rsquo;s known for energetic performances and a exemplary gift for writing engaging songs that provoke listeners to think and have fun at the same time. She has also shared the stage with numerous musicians including Chaka Khan\, Nona Hendryx\, Pete Seeger\, Chocolate Genius\, Dar Williams and Ani Difranco. She was picked by Lenny Kravitz himself to be his opening act. Elvis Costello\, who was hooked after one high-energy evening in NYC&mdash;he even invited Toshi and her band\, BIGLovely\, to back him up on a &rdquo;Late Show with David Letterman&rdquo; appearance. Songwriting is an art and has been lauded by our culture as such. Please join us as we explore this art form together with insight from this gifted artist. All events are FREE and open to the public           http://www.northwestern.edu/writing-arts/index.html
