The talented singer/songwriter from Charlotte, NC, performs on Thursday, August 10, 2006, from 8 to 10 p.m. at the coffeeshop's Inman Park location.

Atlanta, GA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 08/07/2006 -- It's been more than a year since Charlotte-based singer/songwriter Andy Loflin has been on stage...an unusual hiatus for a musician that has been performing non-stop around the South since he was fifteen years old. It was, however, time well spent -- taking a step back from performing and concentrating on writing and recording a new solo album due out at the end of 2006. But before the songs are forever immortalized in digital format, Andy Loflin will be trying them out on audiences across the Southeast this summer. The short eleven-city tour will showcase many new songs slated for the upcoming album in a stripped-down acoustic setting. The 2006 Coffeehouse Tour kicks off in Raleigh, NC, on August 3.

Inman Perk Coffee is pleased to welcome Andy to its Inman Park location for a live performance as part of his Coffeehouse Tour. On Thursday, August 10, from 8 to 10 p.m., customers can enjoy the music for free while enjoying the menu items Inman Perk offers including a variety of hot and cold beverages, including smoothies, chai tea, and espresso drinks. Inman Perk also offers a selection of decadent desserts, and free wifi is available for customers' use.

About Andy Loflin
Music has always been a part of Andy Loflin. He realized the moment he heard "Revolution" by The Beatles that his life had changed...something inside him turned on and it's been running ever since. At fourteen, he picked up his first guitar and instantly began writing and recording music. With several these accomplishments already under his belt at the age of 25, he has very little regrets. In 2005, he left a regionally successful rock band, Remains of the Day, and moved to Charlotte, North Carolina. Now he's in the studio revisiting his roots while making his first solo recordings since 1997. At heart he is a singer/songwriter and that is what he's putting into his music. At times it's simple, and at other times the music is elaborate, but at the core it is all just about the song.

Emerging Atlanta Artist -- It's All of Her Beeswax

Atlanta, GA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 05/16/2006 -- Imagine, as an artist, that you trade in your tubes of paint for solid blocks of wax, you swap your palette for a hot griddle, and then you replace your paintbrushes with a heat-gun and a small torch. This is the transformation Sharon Lapin made when she decided to take up encaustic painting in May of 2005. Inspired by nature, biology, and medical imagery, artist Sharon Lapin humorously considers the tension between external appearance and internal substance through the uncommon medium of encaustic painting.

Encaustic, made largely of beeswax, was developed and used during Roman and Egyptian times. The technique was rediscovered in the 20th century and is quickly gaining popularity, especially in the contemporary art field. The time consuming task of painting with encaustic requires that it be melted on a heated surface and fused with a heat-gun or torch. The outcome generates marvelously deep color and a smooth texture that is unmatched by any other painting material.

Sharon's encaustic paintings will appear May 14 through June 11, 2006, at Inman Perk Coffee (http://www.inmanperkcoffee.com), a new Atlanta coffeeshop located in the Inman Park neighborhood. The opening reception will be held Saturday, May 20, from 7 to 10 p.m. Inman Perk Coffee opened in February 2006 and exhibits the work of various artists on a monthly basis.

Sharon Lapin, an Atlanta native, graduated from Georgia State University with a Fine Arts degree in printmaking. Being drawn to less common fine art media such as etching, monotype printing, and encaustic, has afforded her the opportunity to educate viewers about these unusual and wonderful processes. She participated in Cow Parade Atlanta in 2003, being the first of several atypical group shows for her. She was also included in other notable shows such as the 2004 Castleberry Hill "Magnet Show" and the 2005 Bill Hallman "Luggage Show", among others. Sharon was recently filmed by HGTV on her encaustic technique, and the episode will air in September 2006 on the "That's Clever" show about artists around the United States.

The cafe, which features a refined, modern interior yet retains a laidback and funky atmosphere, will celebrate its grand opening from Saturday, March 18, to Saturday, March 25. Various events are planned for the grand opening week, including a drink-naming contest and dessert tasting session. The week will end with an art show opening and reception for Atlanta artist Marco Frey on Saturday, March 25, from 1 to 4 p.m. The reception will also feature a live musical performance by the wayne fishell experiment. The shop's Web site will feature all the happenings at www.inmanperkcoffee.com.

The family-owned coffee shop was designed to reflect the unique personality of the Inman Park neighborhood -- and serve excellent coffee. Their house varietal is a blend exclusive to Inman Perk Coffee, which also boasts a second location in Flowery Branch, Georgia, near Lake Lanier. In addition to premium coffee and espresso drinks, the shops also serve fine teas, smoothies, and other specialty drinks, as well as an assortment of fresh pastries and desserts.

With warm weather approaching, the outdoor patio in Inman Park will likely become a popular place to people-watch, especially in the evenings when the post-dinner crowds wander over for coffee and dessert. And with plans to host special nights featuring live DJs and other fare, Inman Perk Coffee stands poised to become a destination for not only the morning rush of professionals, but also the hip urbanites ready to wind down.

Inman Perk Coffee may just become Atlanta's oldest neighborhood's newest happening addition.
