The first Saturday of the year is always reserved for Steve & Cindy. Steve is one of the folk world's stand-out songwriters, with many songs that have become standards. His "Darcy Farrow," "Back on the Street Again," "Glass Houses," "Grapes on the Vine," "Bed of Roses", "Unto You This Night," and more, have been recorded by the likes of Ian & Sylvia, Linda Ronstadt, John Denver, Kenny Rogers, Tammy Wynette, Waylon Jennings, Garth Brooks, and Josh Ritter, to name just a few. Cindy plays dulcimer, guitar, banjo and concertina and sings lead and harmony with a smooth, silky voice utterly lacking in affectation. She is known for her compelling interpretations of traditional ballads, and for her own songwriting.

Caffè Lena offers extraordinary music in an intimate venue steeped in history. It has been in continuous operation longer than any other folk club in the USA. First opened in 1960 in Saratoga Springs NY, the Caffè's early years were entwined with the social movements of that era. Emerging artists such as Bob Dylan, The Freedom Singers, Arlo Guthrie, Emmylou Harris and Don McLean took their turn on the stage, alongside esteemed veterans such as Clarence Ashley, Mississippi John Hurt, Skip James and Pete Seeger. The venue has been called “An American Treasure” by the Library of Congress, and has received recognition from the GRAMMY Foundation for its contribution to American music.
