Happy March!

Hope the snow is starting to melt  - we saw a bit of lawn today, and even a glimpse of driveway. (First time in months). We did have a wonderful February, and the annual My Folky Valentine concert, hosted by our great friends Annie and Rod Capps at The Ark in Ann Arbor was a great highlight. This year was particularly fun with our buddies, other musical marital duos: Dublin Station, The Milroys, and Jan Krist and Alan Finkbeiner. John posted a few of our songs from the show on You Tube, including a new song: “Now, She’s Mama”:

Now, we’re excited for a great, and busy, March!

We head off to the Boston area for a concert at Kick Off Your Shoes concert series in Topsfield, MA Sunday, March 14th @ 7pm! We met Ashara, the producer, after performing a showcase in Chicago 2 years ago, and we’ve been excited for this gig ever since. She’s hosted such amazing performers as Catie Curtis, Ellis Paul, and Vance Gilbert – so we’re really honored to be invited! If you know anyone in the Boston area who might be interested, please let them know. They can go to: www.kickoffyourshoes.net and/or email Ashara at:  ahsara@aol.com for reservations.

Then we spend some time in East Michigan:

On Saturday, March 27th 8pm we will perform at MAMA’s Coffeehouse in Birmingham Hills, opening for the guitarist extraordinaire, Michael Johnson (www.mjblue.com). MAMA's Coffeehouse, which donates proceeds to charity, is produced by our great friend and fabulous performer, Jim Bizer. Also, if you are a performer, the evening starts with an open mic! Learn more: MAMA's Coffeehouse. /www.mamascoffeehouse.org/

Then on Sunday, March 28th from 3-5pm we will join forces with our dear friends Annie and Rod Capps to perform at The White Crow Conservatory in Saginaw, MI. This will be our debut there, but Annie & Rod (www.maynardmusic.com) are veterans and rave about the experience! Dedicated to the education, preservation and pure enjoyment of acoustic music, White Crow is a treasure in Michigan. Check out the website: http://whitecrowconservatory.blogspot.com/ 

Wishing you a great March! Hope to see you soon!
