TGIF featuring Karl Werne & Eddie Williams; 5:30pm: Karl Werne has been entertaining the Hampton Roads area since he was 16 years old. Eight years with The Lewis McGehee Group and four years with his own Instant Karma have made him a local favorite with his versatile guitar work and smooth hypnotic vocals. Highlights of those years include opening act for Bruce Hornsby's Grammy winning "The Way It Is" tour & numerous recordings still receiving airplay. In 1995, Karl teamed up with the very talented and respected saxophonist, Eddie Williams; a partnership that would prove to have a profound impact on his musical life. Now playing acoustic guitar, this new exploration of improvisation and creativity would shape a unique sound later complimented and completed by electric guitarist extraordinaire, Curtis Eley; and more recently, with drummer Dan Martier, and bassist, Dana Silvercloud. Karl's original lyrics are written from a place of heart, thoughtfulness and understanding. His gentle stage persona is one of peace and brotherhood that sets the stage for an evening you can trust and take with you. His music has the dynamics, spirit and intensity needed to hold your interest, your hand, and your breath.
