Dave Says,

The Golden Shower Retirement Center is proud to present that rambunctious rascal of rhythm: Mr. Ricky “King” Russell, master of mayhem and boffo guttersnipe to our stage this week. Last time he was here Fred had to increase insurance coverage on the place. Ricky’s quite a guy, both musically and forensically,  and we’re not looking forward to some major surgery when this blows over.
He’ll be conjoined with one of our favorite dribblers: “Mr. Ed” Scheer, not to be confused  with Wilbur’s inamorata. He drums, he sings, and he steals all my songs! Thank Gawd!
As  usual  Mr. Greg T. and his catarrh and myself on basso profundo will round off the proceedings to the nearest inch of your life. So, plan on coming out and getting your brain emulsified. Lifetime guarantee!

There seems to have been some confusion on the correct date of this concert. It is as follows.

Wednesday, April 4 @ 7 PM.

Annalivia’s unique sound features twin fiddles, strong vocals, driving guitar, mandolin, clawhammer banjo and double bass. The band grew out of the potent Boston traditional music scene which has yielded many cutting-edge Celtic, bluegrass, Old Time, jazz, and everything-in-between bands. Annalivia is unique in that the band members have strong backgrounds in both American and Celtic styles. The members of Annalivia also contribute their own original material– instrumentals played on fiddles, guitar, mandolin, and banjo, and songs written by lead singer Liz Simmons and guitarist Flynn Cohen.

The members of Annalivia are Liz Simmons, Flynn Cohen, Emerald Rae, and Stuart Kenney, and this show will feature special guest Ivonne Hernandez standing in for Mariel Vandersteel. All are virtuosic on their instruments and have long histories with traditional music, ranging from bluegrass to Irish, Scottish, Cape Breton and Old Time. These styles play a large role in the interpretations of their material which includes inventive, quirky fiddle tunes and lushly arranged songs. Their unique style has an Americana flavor, yet with the detail, precision and energy of their bluegrass and Celtic backgrounds.

Emerald Rae holds a Scottish fiddle championship and has studied and played alongside the giants of Cape Breton music including Natalie MacMaster and Brenda Stubbert. Flynn Cohen has played with many of the Irish music masters including Cathie Ryan, John Whelan, Seamus Egan, Aoife Clancy, and Frank Ferrell and Joe Derrane, as well as American music greats Scott Nygaard, Adrienne Young, and Ruth Moody, among others. Liz Simmons has made a name for herself in the northeast as an accomplished singer of Celtic and American traditional styles, and has performed alongside John Whelan, Karan Casey, Aoife Clancy, and North Cregg. Stuart Kenney performs in the acclaimed French-Canadian band Raz de Marée, and spent many years performing in the wildly popular contra-dance band Wild Asparagus. Special guest Ivonne Hernandez is a five-time Grand North American Fiddle Champion, and has performed with Mark O’Connor, Alan Jackson, Gloria Estefan, Jann Arden, U2’s the Edge, Natalie MacMaster, Earth Wind and Fire, Steve Winwood, Burt Bacharach, Juan Louis Guerra, Rosa Pasos, Ben Hepner and legendary film composer Howard Shore.
