Welcome to 5^th Saturdays at the Two Way Street Coffee House!  Saturdays are special!  An extra Saturday in a month comes around only a few times a year, so we decided to commemorate each one with a special event.  5^th Saturdays in 2025 occur in March, May, August and November.

For our August event, Two Way Street Coffee House, in partnership with the Plank Road Folk Music Society, is pleased to present “Sing and Play in Harmony” with Bobcat Opossum on August 30, 2025.  This workshop runs from 11am – 1pm CT.

This event will be in-person only.  The admission price is $25 per participant and will be limited to 25 in-person attendees.

The registration deadline is August 27, 2025.  

Workshop Title: Sing and Play in Harmony

Taught by multi-instrumentalists and educators Sean Hoffman and Ellen Coplin of the duo Bobcat Opossum! This workshop will guide participants to better understand playing and singing harmony through hands-on music theory and ear training. Bring your imagination and get ready to have a whole lot of fun learning a song and exploring how to hear harmonies and express them with your voice and instrument.  

“Bobcat Opossum is a tune slinging, genre bending duo from the back alleys of the Midwestern wilderness. They’ve picked through the field and around the campfires for the tastiest folk songs and fiddle tunes in all the land. They have trod the rugged roads of Irish and Old Time American traditional music and have lived to tell the tales. 

Multi-instrumentalists Sean Hoffman and Ellen Coplin prepare a slow-roasted feast for the ears, garnished with homegrown original songs. Pull up a chair, but be warned, you may get the feeling that you are in exactly the right place at the right time.” ~ Liv Lafluv
