The first will be held on Jan. 29, and will present Chinua Hawk, a singer/songwriter with "a soulful, emotion-filled voice that resonates with his audience," according to a publicity statement attributed to York College. The amazing vocal talent of Hawk mesmerized Cabrini CAP board coordinators and there was no hesitation ip booking him after being the only entertainer to receive a standing ovation by the entire conference.

Their continued success has lead to performances with such acts as Dispatch, Guster, Petey Pablo and The Sugar Hill Gang.
