Text Box: Few husband-wife musical duos provide audiences with the complete entertainment package that Stacey Earle & Mark Stuart dish out in a live performance. Armed with clever acoustic guitar interplay, autobiographical songwriting, lovely harmonies, and humorous storytelling this couple captivates your attention from the first moment they are onstage. Based out of Tennessee, Earle and Stuart draw from blues, pop, country, rock, and more in their heartfelt music. The years of touring the folk/Americana circuit (playing 170 concerts a year) have given them a knack for reaching out to the audience in an intimate “come in to my living room” fashion. Don’t miss this opportunity to hear two of the best muscians and singers in our living room!
Text Box:  Bill will perform at our house for this show and if you know Bill ‘s music , it will be an evening of memories.  Bill has sung his heart out all over this country as a travelling musician for many years.  We first saw him at the Kerrville Folk Festival back in ‘83 and have followed his musical career since..  He is an astounding songwriter in touch with the heartbeat of  American music.  He can take you on journeys through love and adventure with his words and  his music.  We were touched by his musical soul and invited him to sing for us over 20 years ago and he’s been coming back ever since.  We are thrilled that he will be performing at our home tagain for an initimate evening of Bill  Staines songs and stories.  Susie and I hope you will join us for this special night.  Please call for directions and reservations, space is limited.
Text Box: Small Potatoes            Friday  March 12
(Special House Concert # 3) call or e-mail for reservations
Text Box: Small Potatoes is Jacquie Manning and Rich Prezioso. This Chicago-based duo has been touring on the folk circuit since 1993 and in that time they’ve become sought-after regulars at many clubs, coffeehouses across the U.S. They call themselves eclecto-maniacs. They describe their music as “Celtic to Cowboy” and say in has taken them “years of careful indecision” to come up with a mix of music that ranges from country, blues, and swing to Irish, with songwriting that touches on all of those styles and more   When you see Small Potatoes perform, you hear two great voices, some fine guitar playing, and a touch of tin whistle, flute, mandolin, bodhran, and other percussion toys. Together they present a truly rare blend of vocal and instrumental abilities, award-winning songwriting, and arranging talents. They have the unique ability to adapt to the style of music they happen to be playing. They seem comfortably at home whether playing an upbeat cowboy swing tune or a tender, traditional ballad--though there are no rules here either, sometimes the traditional sounds contemporary, sometimes the contemporary sounds traditional. And they also pay attention to the little things, the warmth, the humor and a rapport with the audience that makes for a memorable performance.  Another magical evening of music that you do not want to miss
