It's a little slower this week, perhaps the February blahs or perhaps let down after the "Toy Story" theme. And it's mostly a county jam so far with the following acts confirmed.
- MartinC limbers up his wagon
- Sylvain opens a cold one and sings us some Bro Country songs about his truck and his dog.
- JohnB has some old time railway songs for us.
- AndrewG hauls out his lute for some Renaissance music.
- KenR promises us some yodelling.
And of course, a semi live music selection from me. This one wasn't on my radar until my Campfire Guitar instructor handed out songs sheets on the firs tonight of the new semester. As she suggests, I set up a playlist with them to reacquaint myself with them. There's a mix of old songs, some I like, some not so much etc. Tracy Chapman is a singer songwriter who fits the Open Mike night theme very well. Talkin' Bout a Revolution is a protest song, but a fairly quiet one. hat ells it is the arrangement, and most of all her deep and rich voice.
Jools Holland Peter, squeeze seem to get everywhere musically. Must admit the themes feel like playing in another league - I would have preferred my posts all together on the same day each week but I guess that would cause Curt et al, a great big headache.
