SUMMARY:Dulcimer Extravagana w/ RICK THUM/ Erin Mae/ Wendy Songe
DESCRIPTION:Following the Southern Wisconsin Dulcimer Festival\, headliners RICK THUM (hammered dulcimer)\, ERIN MAE (mountain dulcimer)\, and WENDY SONGE (multi-instrumentalist) will be throwing a Dulcimer Extravaganza concert here at Cafe Carpe. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve seats. (You are welcome to show up at the door\, but are not guaranteed a seat that way.) \nLearn more about the Southern Wisconsin Dulcimer Festival at https://southernwisconsindulcimerclub.com/who-what-where-basic-information/ \nRanked 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. \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.” \nErin Mae (formerly Rogers) is a mountain dulcimer teacher and performer. Her style is contemporary\, but grounded in traditional American roots music. \nWendy Songe- award winning singer\, songwriter\, multi-instrumentalist\, poet\, performer\, teacher & Nationally touring musician. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:SORRY-CANCELLED !!! JACKSON GRIMM & the BULL MOOSE PARTY
DESCRIPTION:THE fellows had car trouble\, and can’t make it to Wisconsin We hope they are traveling this way again sometime and can reschedule. \n JACKSON GRIMM marries folk pop melodies with the lonesome sound of traditional Appalachian music. In a region with a strong music culture\, it is no surprise that Grimm’s songwriting is representative of his musical birthplace: Asheville\, NC. \nThe Bull Moose Party was Grimm’s backing band for his 2018 debut album which was hailed “..a basically perfect Americana album” (country.de) and contained “very appealing songs” (thenextgig.nl). While each of the band members demonstrate years of proficiency on their instruments\, what sets this ensemble apart from the others are the vocal harmonies and the band dynamics. Audiences can tell when bands have been playing together for years and this group shows that 10-fold. \nJackson Grimm & The Bull Moose Party bring a perfect mixture of high-energy bluegrass\, beautiful melodies\, & real\, raw songwriting. \nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve seats.

SUMMARY:MARE EDSTROM & KENN FOX- History of the blues/ Marcus Klein
DESCRIPTION:MARE EDSTROM and KENN FOX  have been playing\, teaching and researching the blues together for over 14 years; and Kenn has spent his entire life archiving 20th century music\, especially its foundation in the blues. They have released six critically acclaimed blues albums on the Wisconsin-based Spiritone label. Mare has been the subject of many feature articles and has received consistent airplay\, particularly throughout Europe\, for her solo album work. Kenn has released eight solo fingerstyle albums as well as two albums with the Midwest Guitar Trio\, and a current album with Celtic band Kellswater Bridge. \nMare and Kenn are passionate about sharing the lore of the blues in their current act\, “The History of the Blues from 1920–1970.” Come and experience the magic of the music\, the myth and the stories of the Mississippi Delta\, and the surprising role Wisconsin played in the early development of the blues. \n“Edstrom possesses a strong voice that can float over a quiet arrangement or deliver a powerful statement backed by a hard-charging band.

SUMMARY:JOHN PARROTT & TOM WASELCHUK with MICHAEL BRITZ
DESCRIPTION:Bringing you vintage swing & country blues- \nTom Waselchuk will be familiar to southern Wisconsin audiences from his work with his Americana band The Dang-Its (1998 to present) and Gypsy swing ensemble Harmonious Wail (2001-2011)\, with whom he toured the U.S. and abroad. He keeps up a busy schedule of solo and small ensemble performances including his newest collaborations with Mr. Parrott and with Chicago vocalist Jodi Jean Amble. Ms. Amble\, Mr. Waselchuk\, and another of Tom’s long-time guitar partners\, Doug Brown\, are currently performing as The Honey Pies. Tom’s guitar work demonstrates equal ease with a range of styles from jazz and pop to country and bluegrass. \nJohn Parrott is a rare species in the vast genus of acoustic guitarists. He plays the archtop rhythm guitar in a style that was common from the 1930s to the 1950s (think Count Basie\, Frank Sinatra\, and Bob Wills). For forty years he’s applied his skills\, sensibilities\, and adult chords to the field of String Jazz\, backing up such luminaries as John Hartford\, Vassar Clements\, and Steve Goodman. John is especially noted for his many years of laying down the swinging pulse for the great jazz mandolinists Jethro Burns and Don Stiernberg. John currently works and records with Milwaukee musicians Chris Hanson\, Robin Pluer and an assortment of jazz and swing artists. \nTogether they present a showcase of 20th century American music in a variety of genres with solidly swinging guitar artistry and more than acceptable vocals. \nJohn and Tom are delighted to be joined on upright bass on this night by Michael Britz. Michael is one of the busiest and well-respected bassists in southern Wisconsin. His legendary virtuosity has graced so many styles and groups\, from the Milwaukee Ballet Orchestra to the legendary Chuck Hedges bands. He has a propulsion and feel to his playing that’s unique and very appealing. This is Mike’s first appearance at the Carpe\, though he thinks he had a lunch here a few years ago. \n\nPlease call 920-563-9391 to reserve.

SUMMARY:MAX HATT/ EDDA GLASS
DESCRIPTION:MAX HATT/ EDDA GLASS have “an incomparable spook” (Nashville Scene) and a “unique sound” (Larry Groce\, NPR) that’s taken them across the county from NPR Mountain Stage to NYC’s Lincoln Center\, DC’s Kennedy Center\, and the Sundance Film Festival. \nPraised for her “impeccable vocal command” (PopMatters) and compared to a gamut of singers from Astrud Gilberto to Billie Holliday\, Glass’s voice ultimately “one of a kind…you cannot confuse her with another artist” (New York Theatre Guide). \nHatt’s equally distinctive guitar work combines the harmonic innovations of jazz and classical with the melodic resonance of folk\, creating music that’s “subtly poignant\, elegantly funky\, and haunting without trying to be” (Nels Cline\, Wilco) \n“I was mesmerized from the first moment I heard them. They have the ability to create a deep sonic landscape with only voice and guitar\, with songs that posses a mysterious and soulful magic”— Pat Sansone (Wilco) \n“Max Hatt/Edda Glass create exquisite\, evocative music as they journey through the landscape of jazz and folk with Hatt’s atmospheric guitar playing and the landscape of the West with Glass’s literate lyrics.”— John Platt of WFUV \nTogether with Glass’s literate lyrics\, this Jazz Americana evokes the grandeur of the western landscape\, telling intimate stories of little people on great plains\, and leaving audiences with a feeling both light and deep. \nPlease call 920-563=9391 to reserve seats.
