http://www.canada.com/Ivan+Coyote+Spoon+team/2729790/story.html Joe's Garage is winding up its March concert series with two wildly exciting performances. On Sunday, March 28th, Ivan Coyote, one of Canada's finest spoken word artists, joins folk artist Rae Spoon for an evening that will be both thought provoking and funny.

To this end, folk artist Rae Spoon will be on stage with Ivan. In his early 20's, Rae hit the road as one of the world's only transgendered country singers and toured Canada, Europe, Australia and the USA. When the obvious dangers and contradictions of this role caught up to him, he hid in a small town in Eastern Germany for a winter. His European experience influenced him to trade his banjo for a computer and his acoustic guitar for an electric.
