Woodstock is such a unique community, one that historically has cultivated creative talent and provided a home for artists of all kinds. We are especially fortunate to have such an active music community with year-’round live events and live and virtual open mics from Off Square Music, the Woodstock Folk Arts Festival which hosts not only a yearly Festival but other special events, and so much more.
Off Square Music is proud to present this Showcase of Local Artists with all local talent. We hope you’ll gather your friends and family and come out to share a great evening of entertainment at Stage Left Cafe, 125 W. Van Buren St., Woodstock, Illinois. Here’s a little about our artists that evening, Friday, September 6:

Wattle & Daub
Wattle & Daub perform with an authentic acoustic voice rooted in their passion for the power of the folk tradition.
Originating in 2014 from the heart of the midwest, northern Illinois, husband and wife singer-songwriters Tim and Susan Mocarski are dedicated to participation, social commentary, and entertainment. Their songs range from just plain fun to those focused on what it means to be human in these times.
Randy Anderson is a self-taught guitar player who performs folk music, acoustic guitar with pickup. He likes to perform humorous and sometimes what he calls “off-the-wall” songs, but he also likes serious ones. He is a member of the Lake County Folk Club and occasionally opens for their monthly concert.
Randy spent most of his life in Central Illinois near Peoria, retiring in 2009. He and his wife have been married for 50 years. They moved to the Woodstock area a few years ago to be near their kids and grandkids.
Randy and Off Square Music
Randy is a regular at the Stage Left Open Mic and Every Saturday Virtual Open Mic. He also plays at the events of other local organizations, most recently at the Lake County Folk Club Acoustic Concert. Here’s a sample performance from our own Off Square Music Video Gallery:
