You can tell that Christmas is around the corner when American Troubadour, Bill Schustik pulls together his Yuletide song bag of seasonal songs and stories. Even in Florida we may wish to bundle up with chestnuts roasting on an open fire.

Doors open at 6:30PM.  Suggested donation is $20.00 or more at the door. Children accompanied by an adult are free.

Bill Schustik is an American Troubadour. In his time, he has traveled all over the USA  gathering songs, and stories and sowing legends. His magnificent baritone voice, his keen sense of drama, his vast knowledge of history, his  a colorful array of folk instruments, and deep abiding love for traditional lore are his trademarks.

His repertoire includes, singing the National Anthem at the 7th game of the 1979 World Series, performing before three U.S. presidents. He has  appeared on and off Broadway  and has authored two full-length ballets and a show about the American Civil War, “Shiloh Hill,” produced by Ford’s Theatre. He has entered countless school classrooms, dramatizing  and enlivening American history for students throughout this country.

Bill continues to share his love of music and history through his recent projects, including Tom Paine, a genuine Salt Sea Pirate Cabaret, Many Thousand Gone, a continuing evolution of “Shiloh Hill”,  and most recently, he is back in the realm of his tall ships, sailing, singing chanties, and spinning the lore of bombastic privateering of the American Heroic age.

The concert on December 12th at 7pm, at  Rising Tide, 5102 Swift Rd. is one you will not wish to miss. For some folk it has become their Christmas tradition.
