I've always had the impression that time accelerates and spins away from me around March 1st. Then there's the sudden, welcome, luxurious and golden pause of June, lingering until the shortening days of September arrive - impossible to ignore. A steep rushing scramble to the holidays, a dark & quiet winter pause ...and here we are again at March, wishing for June.
JUNE 4 - 8 Retreat: We still have spots available at the Retreat, but not a lot. If you are planning to attend, you should apply to register now.
If you can't join us, consider coming down to Crisfield for our Sat 6th Concert on the City Dock! (details below)
THE INSTRUCTORS:
Phil Madeira:
Grammy winning, Nashville-based musician, artist, songwriter and producer has been a behind-the-scenes shaker and mover as a band member (Emmylou Harris; Her Red Dirt Boys, Buddy Miller, The Phil Keaggy Band) and songwriter/session musician (Alison Krauss, Mat Kearney, Old Crow Medicine Show, Buddy Miller, Garth Brooks, Toby Keith, Daniel Amos, Amy Grant, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The Civil Wars, Julie Miller, The Band Perry, and many more).
Beth Wood:
We have been big fans of Beth for a very long time. Modern-day troubadour and believer in the power of song. Her exceptional musicianship, powerhouse voice, crafty songwriting, and commanding stage presence have been winning over American audiences for sixteen years. Beth's music is soulful, organic, intelligent, barefoot, high-energy communication of joy.
Scott & Jen Smith (Naked Blue):
Audiences across the U.S. have been enjoying Naked Blue's endearing, intimate and sometimes irreverent stage banter and solid, pop influenced songwriting for over two decades. Their passion for writing has led to hundreds of co-writes, lots of film and television placements, several album cuts, and six full length album releases of their own.
And In the Kitchen -
Our good friend, fellow Songwriter/Performer/Diva & wonderful chef, Annie Sidley (of Annie's Nirvana Cuisine fame), will be commandeering the kitchen this year. Check her music out here: Annie Sidley
