Redding Tune Heads to Chico

A few weeks ago, I entered a song in radio station KZFR's "Celebration of the Song" contest. The song -- 2:20 -- was inspired by a late night trip to the Redding train station at two o'clock in the morning - because that's when the train rolls through town.  The adventure made for a ridiculously long night,  but somewhere in the sleep depravation and the bleary-eyed fog, I DID find a song.

I got a call the other day and was told I am one of three finalists who are invited play at the Sierra Nevada Big Room in Chico on June 4th. The three of finalists also get a spot at the California Worldfest in Grass Valley this summer. The other finalists are Hannah Jane Kile and Dan Casamajor.  Joe Craven will be hosting the evening and entertaining

Excited?  That hardly begins to cover it.

We'll be rehearsing non-stop for the next two weeks and looking forward to this incredible opportunity.  Tickets are available here:  Sierra Nevada Brewing Co.

Art in the City: A Redding Tradition

Thursday, May 15th, the City of Redding presents a free concert and art show at Redding City Hall. The Summer Art Reception runs from 5-7 and features art from the Grand View Fine Arts Society, quilts created by the Quilter's Sew-Ciety of Redding and art by Patricia Cook. Click here for more information on the artists.

Several North State Songwriters will perform original music in the lobby. 

Still Married's  country folk tunes celebrate the landscape, the characters and the independent spirit of Far Northern California, with songs like "Under the Sundial Bridge" and "The Redding Song."  Singer- songwriter Will Miller will perform indie folk and country music. Duo Matthew Songmaker and Sam Jo bring a unique blend of bluegrass, Americana, and acoustic country. Justin Contreras will perform original acoustic rock tunes.

The public is invited to meet the artists whose work is on display and enjoy complimentary refreshments at Shasta County's largest art gallery.
