Sue Nishi, director of The Breakfast at St. Andrew’s, recently chatted with Lucy Ann Lance on her Community Cares segment about the impact The Breakfast Program has had serving a daily breakfast to those in need in the Ann Arbor community since 1982.
There have been some exciting developments in the Breakfast Program this fall. The Washtenaw County Health Department issued an upgraded health license for our commercial kitchen in October. This new license allows us to expand our menu. We have started serving sausage, breakfast sandwiches, pancakes with fresh blueberries, scrambled eggs, French toast, and deli meats and cheese for sandwiches to go. Future plans include breakfast casseroles and breakfast burritos. We are even considering adding a homemade soup and chili station in the winter. It may not be traditional breakfast food, but it will be warm and comforting (and full of protein and fresh vegetables).
Tickets are now on sale for the 14th annual Breakfast Program benefit concert featuring Grand Ole Opry members and Grammy winners Old Crow Medicine Show at The Michigan Theater in Ann Arbor on Friday, September 13 at 7:30 p.m.
Tickets for the show, presented by Acoustic Routes Concerts and The Ark, are available through Ticketmaster.
Old Crow Medicine Show’s concerts are legendary thanks to the band’s virtuosity and breakneck tempos, their strong original songwriting and deep respect for traditional American music. Their rise began in 2000 after a chance meeting with the flatpicking guitar and mountain music legend Doc Watson when the band was busking on a street corner in Boone, North Carolina.
Over the years, their string band revival sound has found a growing legion of fans hungry for roots music and it has captured the hearts of acclaimed artists like John Prine, Gillian Welch and Marty Stuart who helped propel their music.
No Depression.com says the band is now virtually a tradition in itself and they said their latest Grammy-nominated album, Jubilee, is “a celebration of their own past and ongoing relevance, and of old-timey music as a hoedown that never ends but might pick up a fair number of new steps along the way.”
