SUMMARY:RICK THUM w/ STEPHEN SEIFERT
DESCRIPTION:Ranked as the most influential dulcimer player of the last decade by readers of Dulcimer Player News\, RICK THUM has made his mark on every aspect of the hammered dulcimer world. He will be sharing the night with STEPHEN  SEIFERT\, the #1 mountain dulcimer player. Don’t count on any dueling dulcimers. \nRick is perhaps best known from his latest album\, “Front Porch Waltz\,” and his festival performances\, which have regularly earned him the “most popular performer” title at the largest national dulcimer festival. He brings a combination of passion and friendly accessibility to his teaching that makes his workshops and master classes favorites at festivals across the country\, and has tapped this teaching experience to produce the best-selling instructional CD series for hammered dulcimer\, the “Original Song of the Month Club”. Rick is also the designer of the highly-regarded line of hammered dulcimers bearing his name. Yet for all his time in the studio\, onstage\, in the classroom\, and in the luthier’s shop\, Rick is most at home at a late-night jam session\, where you might even find him playing an instrument other than the dulcimer from time to time. \nHe has shared the stage with Mike Seeger\, The Tony Rice Unit\, Steve Kaufman\, Norman Blake\, and Bryan Bowers and opened for John Hartford\, Norman & Nancy Blake\, and Leo Kottke. Rick is a popular teacher on the festival circuit and travels across the country playing solo and teaching at music festvals. He currently has five recordings; “Hammered Fiddle Tunes”\, “A Reason to Dance”\, “Front Porch Waltz”\, “Down the Old Dirt Road” and “Seifert & Thum Live at Mt Dora 2014”. Mel Bay Publishing Inc. has published the companion book to Hammered Fiddle Tunes. \nRick is currently manufacturing hammered dulcimers (Rick Thum Dulcimers) which can be seen at a retailer near you and has\, by demand\, started the Song of the Month Club. Mail order lessons by audio Cd. \n“Rick Thum is a masterful musician and versatile entertainer who captures an audience with his skillful playing and great personality.” \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:BILL MILLER
DESCRIPTION:BILL MILLER is an award-winning Native American recording artist\, performer\, songwriter\, activist\, painter\, and world-class accomplished flute player. Over the entirety\, Miller has produced over a dozen albums\, received three Grammy Awards\, numerous NAMA awards (including a “Lifetime Achievement Award) and led Wisconsin’s La Crosse Symphony Orchestra. He is now touring in support of a recent collaboration album Look Again To The Wind: Johnny Cash’s Bitter Tears Revisited where Bill has the title track. \nA Mohican Indian from northern Wisconsin\, Bill Miller has long been one of the most admired figures in the Native American music arena and beyond. As an award-winning recording artist\, performer\, songwriter\, activist\, and painter\, he’s been a voice for the voiceless\, a link between two great and clashing civilizations. \nWith his new album\, Chronicles of Hope\, Bill hopes to further inspire fans\, both present and future. “My faith in my Creator leaves me content with the gifts I have\,” he says\, “and I use them to enrich the world through His blessings. I choose to bless people rather than curse them\, to be a peacemaker rather than a warmaker.” As songs like “The Promise” make clear\, Bill feels just as passionate about saving the environment of North America\, the land of his forebears. ” I think we should feel as if we’re living in the Garden of Eden\, and we should take care of the land\,” he says emphatically. “I’ll always use my music to urge people to preserve the land.” \nBill has an equally active career as a painter. His work has been shown and sold in prestigious galleries around the country\, and he maintains a studio at his Nashville home\, where he lives with his wife and children. With so busy a personal and professional life\, it would seem that Bill Miller could cruise ever onward in easy contentment. But artists don’t work that way. “I’ve been given a lot of second chances in my life\,” he says. “I’ve been through alcoholism and other problems. I was lifted out of the ditch\, and I still see a blue sky above. After years of living against the grain\, I see things as rivers\, creeks and rainstorms\, as the liquid layers of my life.” \nBill is really excited about a brand new ROY ORBISON project.  Roy’s sons want him to do a record honoring their father\, interpreting some of Roy’s songs and doing some of his own songs inspired by Roy. \nBill’s heart is now beating well- at 95% and on its way up after heart failure last April.  That kept him off the road for awhile and he is glad to be back at work. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:MEL PARSONS
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning singer songwriter MEL PARSONS is well recognized as one of New Zealand’s established songwriting stars. \nParsons has just released her third full length album ‘Drylands’ to critical acclaim\, returning triumphant from a 23-date headline tour of NZ\, following performances at WOMAD\, Woodford Folk Festival (AU)\, Folk Alliance International (US)\, and Byron Bay Bluesfest this summer. Since its April release ’Drylands’ has spent 32 weeks in the IMNZ album charts\, peaking at No.2. \nParsons is a two-time NZ Music Award (VNZMA) finalist for Folk Album of the Year; Winner of the 2016 NZCMA Country Song of the Year; Winner of the 2016 MMF award for Best Independent Tour; A finalist for the prestigious APRA Silver Scroll award in 2015; and ‘Drylands’ won the NZ Music Award in technical category for Best Engineer (Lee Prebble\, Oliver Harmer). \nWith a wide breadth of material\, Parsons has a dynamic songwriting range: from the gutsy & rhythmic hand-clappers like audience favourite ‘Far Away’\, through to pin-drop ballads like ‘Don’t Wait’\, featuring Canadian songwriting royalty Ron Sexsmith. \nWith a dynamite live show – solo\, or with her dynamic band\, Parsons is an engaging performer with a natural emotive voice that allows the listener to become part of the story. Her unique style simmers somewhere between indie/folk and alt/country\, and her shows are as memorable for the spine tingling songs as for Parsons’ dry banter delivery in between. \nWith home as a hotel room and a suitcase\, she has built up a solid fan base the old fashioned way – winning over audiences on the live circuit. Along with NZ performances\, Parsons has had recent tours in Canada\, UK\, Ireland\, Australia and Germany. She is also a cast member of Kiwi musical collective ‘Fly My Pretties‘\, with tours and festival performances including the prestigious Byron Bay Bluesfest. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:JOHN STANO/ KAIA FOWLER
DESCRIPTION:With soaring vocals and accomplished guitar work\, KAIA shares songs that explore life’s struggles and joys\, drawing on folk\, blues\, roots\, and rock traditions. Inspired by nature and the human condition\, Kaia’s songs resonate with strength and vulnerability as she explores a vast emotional landscape. With over 20 years as a performing singer-songwriter\, Kaia draws from a large repertoire of original material and select cover songs by artists such as John Prine\, Carole King\, Bonnie Raitt\, and Stevie Nicks. \nKaia’s songwriting has been compared to Joni Mitchell’s for its lyrical poetry\, rich melodies and engaging chord progressions. She placed as a finalist for the 2012 Great River Folk Festival songwriters contest. Two songs from her 2010 album Seams of My Heart received radio play on Woman of Substance Radio. The Americana Gazette album review had this to say about Kaia’s songwriting: “Each song is very well written\, with a true authenticity of life. You can picture yourself or someone you know in each story line.” It continues\, “Fowler is a tremendous lyricist. Her lyrics paint pictures and her musical notes add the color…” (Aug.-Sept. 2010 issue). Kaia’s latest album\, released October 2015\, is an EP titled All The Way\, dedicated to the memory of her husband Scott R. Jaeger who died of pancreatic cancer in 2013. A portion of the proceeds from sales of All The Way benefit the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. She is currently working on her third studio album. \nSee videos of Kaia’s recent performance at a house concert and listen to samples from her albums at her website. \nJOHN STANO is an award winning singer songwriter and performer of Americana\, Blues\, Folk and Contemporary Acoustic music. The trademark of his sound is a distinctive blend of acoustic and slide guitar\, harmonica and expressive vocals\, developed over many years of performance and study. He sometimes adds a little mandolin\, cigar box guitar or banjo to the mix as well. His style could be described as acoustic folk-blues or Americana. \nInitially self-taught\, John went on to study American fingerstyle guitar at the Wisconsin Conservatory of Music and harmonica with national blues legend\, Jim Liban. ‘Sing Out’ compared John’s music to early Bob Dylan while ‘Dirty Linen’ was reminded of Country Joe McDonald. John studied English and creative writing at U.W. Madison. A skillful use of language adds an original spark to his lyrics. Besides his own songs\, John also performs his own arrangements of urban and country blues classics\, instrumentals and contemporary songs\, covering music by artists such as; John Prine\, Bob Dylan\, Greg Brown\, Little Walter\, Robert Johnson\, Mississippi John Hurt\, John Fahey\, Gillian Welch\, Leo Kottke and Tom Waits. \nJohn is a flexible and engaging performer who works regularly at a variety of indoor and outdoor venues. He also teaches guitar\, harmonica\, banjo and other acoustic instruments privately and has received numerous arts grants to present blues history\, harmonica performance\, ukulele and song writing classes in the Milwaukee public schools and private institutions such as Mount Mary College and Waukesha County Technical College. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:MARIE MILLER w/ John Hollier
DESCRIPTION:“Miller’s sound meshes her singer-songwriter background with poppy country vibes — almost like a combination of Shania Twain and Sara Bareilles.” – Billboard.com \nWhen MARIE MILLER writes a song\, she does what all gifted writers do: She looks at her life and into her heart to make sure what she creates comes from real emotion and experience. \nShe also does something none of peers likely do: she searches through classic literature\, whether it be Dostoyevsky\, Tolstoy or Homer. There\, she finds parallels for what she wants to say\, channels that inspiration into her lyrics and comes up with something unique: Music that’s immediate and timeless\, driven by feelings all listeners can relate to yet infused with a perspective that transcends the present. \n“I have a song called ‘Story’ on my new album\,” she explains\, referencing Letterbox\, scheduled for release in the spring of 2017 on Curb Records. “It brings in a lot of epic characters: Heathcliff and Catherine from Wuthering Heights\, Hector’s wife Andromache from The Iliad. I’ve always loved epic stories — Anna Karenina\, The Brothers Karamazov\, Crime and Punishment — because they’re filled with relationships that are super serious and dramatic. Sometimes I feel like I’m right there in the midst of them.” \nYet Letterbox is no droning lecture on literature. It’s a celebration of freedom. Miller has paid plenty of dues to get to the point where she feels she can write what she wants how she wants to\, and sing without constraint. Still young\, she has survived years in the music business. She impacted initially with the infectious\, “You’re Not Alone.” More than 115\,000 downloaded that single on Amazon. ABC’s Dancing with the Stars featured her second single\, “6’2\,” in 2014. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:DAVE RAMONT
DESCRIPTION:“Differentiating oneself in the burgeoning field of alternative country artists is a tricky proposition these days\, but Dave Ramont stands tall in the crowd.” –Performing Songwriter magazine \nDAVID ALAN RAMONT  was born with a song stuck in his head. The doctors couldn’t get it out. 20 years later he was playing clubs around the Chicago area\, whether alone or with bandmates. He also taught at a music school\, played in foul smelling theatre pits\, did occasional session work and dug plenty of ditches. He made a record and relocated to the thriving Austin\, TX music scene for a spell. Back in Illinois he made 3 more records and dug more ditches. Gigging expanded- Midwest\, East\, South. College/public radio played his songs. \nHe borrowed a banjo and co-founded swillbilly band dick smith. They made 3 records and found a hardcore little following. Their record “Smoke Damage” was one of Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s top 3 indy releases of 2002. Ramont produced records for 3 other singer/songwriters. Currently he’s playing (sometimes for sandwiches)\, writing songs and kicking stuff down the street…and still digging the occasional ditch. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.
