Dear Dan,
Help Massachusetts Peace Action celebrate the holidays -- with a house party concert presented by Hassan El-Tayyab. Let's raise a few bucks to support our work for peace and justice, and enjoy some great music while we're doing it!
Hassan El-Tayyab is a native of Plymouth, Mass. and is the Policy and Organizing Director with our sister organization, Chicago Area Peace Action. Read about Hassan and listen to his tunes at the American Nomad website and read an interview with him about both peace and music in The Chicago Tribune.
Max of 50 people can be accommodated in this private home. Contact the Mass. Peace Action office (617-354-2169) or pre-reserve for event address. Wine, beer and snacks will be served – potluck dishes are also welcomed.
Hassan El-Tayyab is front man of the band American Nomad and an award winning singer- songwriter. Rooted in Americana and folk/swing traditions, his carefully crafted original music maintains a modern relevance. Smart songwriting, catchy lyrics, tight rhythms, rich harmonies, and strong musicianship have already earned Hassan a reputation as a musician that can intrigue listeners from a wide variety of musical tastes and backgrounds. Keeping in line with the ancient troubadour tradition, his music draws from the spirit of travel and authentic life experience.
Hassan El-Tayyab and American Nomad have performed at some of the country’s finest acoustic venues and festivals including the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Strawberry Music Festival, the Grass Valley Bluegrass Festival, the Independent, The Chapel, Freight & Salvage Coffeehouse, Slim’s and Ashkenaz. In addition, American Nomad has appeared on the radio several times including interviews with Dave Iverson from KQED Forum, KPFA’s America’s Back 40 with Mary Tilson, and KPFA’s Music of the World with Joanna Manqueros.

I look forward to seeing you on the 23d!
