D.C. Anderson, Claudia Anderson and Hope Nunnery with Steve Tarshis will perform in Concert on Monday, December 10th at 7:30 pm at THE THEATRE BUILDING CHICAGO (1225 West Belmont Avenue, Chicago, IL - http://www.theatrebuildingchicago.org/). The show will include D.C. Anderson's theatrical cabaret songs, Claudia Anderson's Celtic story songs, and Hope Nunnery and Steve Tarshis' rousing 'Baptist by way of the juke joint' tunes. This combination will comprise what may be the most eclectic concert experience of the season!

D.C. Anderson ('Andre' in Andrew Lloyd Webber's THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA at the Cadillac Palace Theater in Chicago through January 6th) has been nominated for 6 MAC (Manhattan Association of Cabarets and Clubs) Awards for 'Outstanding Song', 'Best Recording' and 'Best Male Artist'. In 2002, he was given the Back Stage BISTRO Award as 'Outstanding Singer/Songwriter'. His acting credits include National Tours of THE LIFE AND ADVENTURES OF NICHOLAS NICKLEBY, PHANTOM OF THE OPERA and MARTIN GUERRE, stints with the Steppenwolf Theater Company (THE BALLAD OF LITTLE JO), the Guthrie Theater and Evanston's Northlight Theater. At the Theatre Building, he will be performing songs from his 2006 CD release 'I Am Still' as well as premiering new songs from his upcoming February 2008 CD release 'Our Story'.

Claudia Anderson performed this past Spring at the Theater Building in a delightful evening of singing, strumming and Celtic drumming, with Chicago musicians Kat Eggleston, Jim Conway and Mike Austin. Past performances have included singing with DC in cabaret venues including Davenports in Chicago, Don't Tell Mama in New York and Gardenia and The Cinegrill in Los Angeles. In addition to her performing, Claudia is on the faculty of The Theatre School, where she teaches voice and speech and coaches for the Showcase and Playworks productions at the Reskin Theatre. Recent professional credits include voice and dialect coaching at Next Theatre Company, Raven Theatre and the Court Theatre.

Hope Nunnery is a Singer/Songwriter in the Americana/Roots genre. Her songwriting and CD 'Wilderness Lounge' have received recognition from NewSong Mountain Stage Awards and the Independent Music Awards committees. Born in the woods of South Carolina, Hope Nunnery experienced gospel music from an early age. As a little girl, she listened in awe to Southern Baptist Church music, and was fascinated by the genre's melodic, melancholy undertones. She has kept this influence tight and close to her heart, adding blues, country, old time and bluegrass to create a cornucopia of pure American roots music.

Steve Tarshis has a B.A. in Composition from the Berklee College of Music. Numerous studio and live performances with artists ranging from Bo Diddley to the Joffery Ballet including John Sebastian, Chico Hamilton, Carl Wilson, Robert Lamm, Mamas and the Papas, Little Anthony and the Imperials, Nora York, Bucktooth Johnson. Steve is the author of over fifteen books published by Music Sales Inc. and Hal Leonard. Titles include The Complete Rock Guitarist, Original Hendrix, Teach Yourself Rock Theory, and Teach Yourself Lead Guitar.
