My sound is from the folk rock era, 60's and 70's English eclectic, 80's alternative, and modern folk. I love to catch and release a melody with guitar and vocal. That is my goal and I hope you enjoy my songs and performances.
Hi Dave. Just thinking about you tonight. Thanks for the comment- I was more excited about Ronan winning the contest than he was. I want you to know Rodney and I are thinking about you. Love you, Joy
Hi Dave....I really enjoyed the 3 recent tunes that you have sent to me...."Summertime", "Village Girl" and "Zenith". The added treatments provide a nice touch...like the marimba sounding instrument on Summertime, and the mouth-harp on Village Girl. Love the intro on Village Girl. Zenith is a peaceful trip down a lovely river. My only musical project at the moment, is working with some friends on a new CD of theatrical tunes. Lori is playing bass on that. The photo is of Silver lake in the Eldorado Forest taken, incredibly, this past Oct. 3rd. Lori and i were backpacking up there and got caught in an unexpected snowstorm. I'm loving your recordings!!

Dave....I really messed up when I accidentally doubled my last comment to you. That was really dumb on my part, and I want to thank you for not mocking me and making fun of me. Yes, I figured that you were referring to the performers when you listed the required qualifications....but please.... don't count me out! I may be only one specific age at this time, but I am determined to become "all ages" in the near future!
Hi Dave, I love the songs and the warm tone of your guitar playing. As said before, your profile photo is really cool, it has a lot of character! Have a great weekend.
Hi Dave, It's great to see that you will be playing at the Mandolin Cafe again in Tacoma. I Hope that those gigs have been going well for you. All is well here in the Bay Area. Needless to say, I wish that I could make it to your show on the 6th. I must admit, I'm somewhat confused by the poster. When they say...."all ages, free, healthy, warm & original".....are they referring to the performers, or the audience to be? If they mean the audience, then I'm afraid I'm not qualified, for although I am free, healthy, warm and original, I am not "all ages". (I am only one specific age) Take care Dave. Good luck on the show!!! Kevo
Hi Dave..........Thanks for the comment. That’s just my old band Fielding Mellish. I was with them 3 or 4 years, mid 70s. No Culleys involved. We had pretty good management and backing. We recorded some demos at Different Fur Studios in S.F., which in the day, was up there with Wally Heider’s and the Record Plant. It’s the only band I’ve ever been in that both deliberately and successfully bypassd the bar scene and went straight to a bigger stage. I’m sure I must have mentioned this band to you before, Dave. While I was with them, we opened up for Journey at the Santa Cruz Civic Auditorium. This was the early Pre-Perry version of Journey when Greg Rauley was singing. I certainly had never before or since played for such a large audience (thousands). I was pretty scared, but I think we pulled it off OK. I love your new profile picture. I reminds me of someplace.
