SUMMARY:Furnace Mountain
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n  \nFurnace Mountain Band plays music from the American Appalachian traditions\, as well as original compositions\, and songs penned by their favorite song writing friends. Furnace Mountain Band has performed throughout the world\, from the Yangtze River in China to the banks of the Shenandoah River\, where they are the host band of Watermelon Pickers’ Festival.  \nThe region is situated between the Appalachian hills of West Virginia and the culturally diverse and ever-changing Washington\, D.C.\, metropolitan area\, and is known for producing musicians who transcend generic categories\, deftly taking traditional music styles in new directions. Furnace Mountain Band\, named for a mountain near where all the members grew up\, consists of some of the most innovative and gifted musicians in Virginia. \nFurnace Mountain consists of Aimee Curl on bass and vocals\, Dave Van Deventer on fiddle and vocals\, and Morgan Morrison on guitar\, bouzouki\, and vocals\, Danny Knicely on mandolin and fiddle.  The band creates music that is at times lively and raucous\, with spirited fiddle melodies weaving in and around the powerful rhythms of the bass and bouzouki\, and other times poignant and poetic\, with sublime vocal harmonies beautifully interpreting some of the oldest songs ever written. \nAimee Curl\nSinger/Bassist Aimee Curl\, from Taylorstown\, Virginia\, has an unmistakable breathy sound and sultry style that combine in a musician of incredible depth. As a singer\, she has a most distinctive voice with emotion and sincerity that makes even the most hardened listener soften and swoon. Aimee grew up singing in church and with her family. In her early teens\, she learned the lap dulcimer and joined her first band. She met other musicians\, started singing more\, and began experimenting with other instruments such as guitar\, fiddle\, and bass. She left home and spent the next ten years playing the electric bass and touring the country with a band named ThaMuseMeant before studying at the New School of Jazz and Contemporary Music in NYC where she picked up the upright bass fiddle. Aimee returned to Virginia\, and now performs with Furnace Mountain at many major festivals and venues in the U.S. and overseas. \nMorgan Morrison\nMorgan Morrison comes from a family of rich musical diversity and acclaim. Her Uncle was the late great John Carisi\, whose Jazz composition “Isreal” was recorded by Miles Davis (birth of the cool)\, Bill Evans and\, Gill Evans. Along with many other accomplishments he was also a member of Glen Millers orchestra\, and worked with Benny Goodman. Morgan’s father the late John Morrison\, her uncle Peter\, grandmother Julie\, and mother Holly\, were at times all professional musicians\, and it was from here that she got her uncanny natural abilities in music. Morgan gained a passion for the old time music of Virginia in her teens\, at the various music festivals across the state\, but her musical interests span many genres. She has been playing the guitar for 20 years\, and the Bouzouki for 15\, and singing her whole life. \nDavid Van Deventer\nDavid Van Deventer (a.k.a. Fiddlin’ Dave) has been studying the folk origins of the fiddle for over 40 years. David is Co-owner of Shepherds Ford Productions LLC\, the company that produces the annual Watermelon Park Fest and River and Roots Festival at Watermelon Park Campground (now at the Clarke County Fairgrounds) in Berryville Va. He is a fiddle and banjo instructor\, as well as an active member of the Woodshedders and David Via and Corn Tornado. Other notable artists he has played and recorded with are Keller Williams\, Larry Keel\, Cracker\, and The Country Gentlemen\, to name a few.  Mike Morrison AmericanaUk had this to say “Ramblin’ Jack was composed and sung by David Van Deventer whose vocal\, certainly to me\, has the warmth and expression of the late John Hartford”. Eilis Boland had this to say in a review for Lonesome Highway of Shadow of Plenty “David Van Deventer ain’t called Fiddlin’ Dave for nothing – he’s a demon on his instrument! He also writes much of the music and sometimes the lyrics. His vocal style and indeed his playing is reminiscent of the late fiddle maestro John Hartford – particularly evident on his songs Ramblin’ Jack and The Last Song. The ironically named Inchworm Set showcases the skills of the whole band\, where Dave’s fiddling interweaves with bouzouki (unusually) and mandolin\, backed up by bass\, and all at breakneck speed.” \nDanny Knicely\nVirginia musician Danny Knicely can be seen with the four piece version of the Furnace Mountain Band. Danny is a fourth generation Appalachian multi-instrumentalist from a Virginia family steeped in mountain music tradition. He has won many awards for both his mandolin and guitar expertise\, including first place in the mandolin contest of the Telluride Bluegrass Festival. He has years of experience as a professional musician performing in many bands of varying musical styles. He has recorded and toured nationally and internationally with many groups including the award winning Magraw Gap\, David Via and Corn Tornado\, James Leva and Purgatory Mountain\, and is a musical director for the Mountain Music Project and Footworks Percussive Dance Ensemble\, featuring Mark Schatz and Eileen Carson.

SUMMARY:St. Patrick's Day with Poisoned Dwarf
DESCRIPTION:$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n  \nGet ready for our 4th Annual St. Patrick’s Day event! Performing on Friday\, March 15th is Poisoned Dwarf! The show starts at 7:00pm. The doors and food truck\, The Pull Up\, open at 6:00pm. Get your tickets ASAP\, this show is known to sell out. \nPoisoned Dwarf is a Celtic music group that plays virtuosic\, innovative and passionate renditions of traditional Irish and Scottish music on acoustic instruments. Five talented musicians create a driving sonic energy that has been captivating audiences for over a decade with whistles\, flutes\, violin\, guitar\, percussion\, and Uilleann pipes together with exciting and lyrical vocals. Poisoned Dwarf performs at a wide variety of musical venues from highland festivals to theaters\, from churches to sophisticated listening venues throughout the East Coast\, to the occasional pub just for fun. \nThomas DeRose \nThomas DeRose has been playing Irish flute for about 20 years. Tom’s music career began at the age of ten when he joined the Colonial Williamsburg Fife and Drum Corp as a fifer. He learned to love music from the British Isles at the Corp and in 1998\, he tried his hand at the Irish flute. He quickly found out that even though the fingering was the same as the fife’s\, the breathing was different. So he launched into a self-guided search for technique. His love of the instrument lead him to listen and learn from the best. The Chieftains\, Dervish\, Lunasa\, The Bothy Band\, Conal O’Grada\, Nomos\, Boys of the Lough\, Matt Malloy\, Kevin Crawford\, Cathal McConnell were his inspiration and mentors. In 2002\, Thomas decided to start a Celtic Band with banjo player Eric Hunter. Soon\, Stewart Pittman joined them on pipes and whistles\, Poisoned Dwarf was born. Personnel has developed and changed through the years\, but the band carries on and continues to play traditional Celtic music in a fun and engaging way. \nMei-Li Garcia  \nMei-Li was born in Sevilla\, Spain to a musical family and began playing Suzuki violin at age 3.  Her earliest musical experiences included singing and dancing flamenco with her talented musical family and running around Europe with the other band children as her father’s rock band\, Smash\, went on tour. She began studying violin formally with theSuzuki method at age 3\, and as an older child\, studied violin and voice at the Conservatory of Seville\, Spain eventually going on to Major in Music at the Mason Cross School of the Arts at Rutgers University and the College of William and Mary from which she holds a double Bachelor of Arts in Music and History. \nWayne Hill \nWayne Hill has had the good fortune to enjoy a lifetime of music making with family and friends. Along the way his love for chamber music led to a decades long passion for folk music in general and Traditional Irish Music in particular.  \nA stroke of luck had him cross paths in early 2005 with a few colleagues at Colonial Williamsburg and their band\, Poisoned Dwarf. Thomas\, Stewart\, Lance\, Eric\, and Cassie were all helpful and patient (!) with his continuing development as a folk musician\, all of whom remain lifelong friends. That trend continues aboard Admiral DeRose’s ship with Patrick and Mei-Li. \nWayne is always 100% “in” regardless of the project: teaching for the Williamsburg Montessori School\, performing\, recording\, composing\, or for his music related work since 1992 for The Colonial Williamsburg Foundation (including winning two Emmys). \nInspired by the fiddling of Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh and Tommy Peoples\, the piping of Willie Clancy\, and the Irish Flute playing of Matt Molloy\, Wayne’s personal quest to develop as a traditional fiddler continues while also enjoying the pleasure of music making with PD’s members and their listeners. \nLance Pedigo \nLance Pedigo got his start in his musical life as a young drummer in the Colonial Williamsburg Fifes and Drums. After graduating from the program\, he continued his musical studies at James Madison University graduating with a major in Music\, percussion. After some years in New York performing in broadway and jazz venues\, Lance returned to Williamsburg\, VA and took over leadership of the Colonial Williamsburg Fifes and Drums Corps for 25 years and manager of the Music Department at Colonial Williamsburg. Lance is a truly versatile musician performing throughout the country as a percussionist with a rock band\, London\, a Klezmer band\, Bagels and Fralox\, and various jazz and Baroque musical ensembles.  Lance is a founding member of Poisoned Dwarf breathing life and energy into old tunes with his masterful bodhran playing. \nPatrick Rooney \nDespite being a native of upstate New York\, Patrick found his musical oasis in Williamsburg\, VA. Prior to his introduction to the tidewater area\, he worked as an actor in regional theaters and also worked in film/tv production out of NYC. His musical life began early in church choirs but was truly sparked when he was introduced to the electric bass at 14. Rock n roll was his language until opportunity called him down to Virginia. Within a short time\, he was introduced to Poisoned Dwarf and he hasn’t looked back. With fire in his belly and melody in his heart\, Patrick provides a raw\, driving energy on the guitar and mandolin.  \nStewart Pittman \nBorn in Williamsburg and joined the Colonial Williamsburg Fifes and Drums in 1990 as a snare drummer. During his time as a juvenile performer\, he played for notable individuals such as Fred Rogers of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood in 1993 and for the arrival and visit of Jiang Zemin\, the Premier of China\, in 1997. After his tenure as a performer with the Fifes and Drums\, Stewart worked for nearly eight years as a military history interpreter at Colonial Williamsburg’s Public Magazine while attending nearby Christopher Newport University. In the summer of 2006\, Stewart was hired as drum instructor for the Fifes and Drums and as an event coordinator for the department of Historic Area Events. Stewart comes from a family of bagpipers\, and he is a master at all manner of bagpipes and Celtic wind instruments. He can usually be found surrounded by tin whistles\, low whistles and his particular favorite\, the Uilleann pipes. He is one of the founding members of Poisoned Dwarf and is a sought-after performer on the bagpipes and whistles with various Virginia Celtic ensembles. \n  \n\n\n$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n

SUMMARY:Willie Williams Trio
DESCRIPTION:$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n  \nRenowned guitarist Willie Williams has assembled one of the most intriguing power trios to hit the Virginia music scene in quite some time. Williams’ plaintive southern croon and melodic guitars backed by the fantasy league rhythm section of Stewart Myers (bass – Agents of Good Roots) and Jason Neal (drums – SKYDOG\, Carbon Leaf) made for a hypnotic evening of music indeed. Solid originals and unexpected covers all with a pronounced Dead/Allman influence. I heard bits of everything from Bakersfield to Motown. Not to be missed.” \nThe show will be indoors beginning at 6:30pm. The doors and food truck\, Shore Bites\, will open at 5:30pm. We offer table and theater style seating. Our venue is open to all ages. In fact\, children ages 10 and under are free.  \n  \n\n\n$20.00 \nBuy now \n\n\n
