[dcab-l] Danny Paisley & The Southern Grass

Many, many THANKS to Danny Paisley & The Southern Grass for a magnificent evening of traditional bluegrass music -- and humor too -- at the Weekend Bluegrass Concert Series last night that had everyone clapping and laughing and sometimes doing both at the same time ;-).  A truly fine bunch of people to be with -- just like family.  See them every chance you get folks as they are the real deal.

[dcab-l] Re: What do you know about the DCBU??

Heres another try at the link, folks...my interest in tube amplifiers must have gotten the best of me...

The DCBU...

Works to present and promote the DCBluegrass Festival. And does a mighty fine job of it, I might add.  You knew that. 

Works to spread the word on bluegrass shows and jams in the area. The calendar has been the GO-TO place to see whats happening for the last 20 years. You knew that one too. You've used it, likely countless times. 

Works to provide a free publicity platform for the bands and venues to shout out to the community about their activities. The bands DEFINITELY know this one for sure. 

Works to provide a handy and convenient source for local instrument instructors for those looking to learn an instrument. Maybe you've used this feature.

Sponsors a jam in Takoma Park for the last 15 years- thanks to Barb Diederich and Mike Marceau- and all the regular jammers! (If your in MD you Def know this. VA? maybe not...)

Presents the Mid Atlantic Bluegrass Band Contest which has provided cash prizes and opportunity for many locals to show their stuff at the DCBF (and the locals have distinguished themselves while participating, I'll also add).  You knew this, tho. 

Commemorates our local legends and and also provides songwriters and instrumentalists the chance to distinguish themselves with outstanding songs/compositions in the Hazel Dickens/Mike Auldridge contests. (The songwriters know this, the pickers are learning...)

Thats A LOT!

What you probably DON'T know...

A small group of DCBU Board members pull this off.   Seven!

Now we're down to 6.....We recently lost Regina Derzon, as she moved to upstate NY, with our thanks for all the great work she's done over the years (the house concert scene still feels the pain from her leaving Barcroft!)

We need the assistance from our members- listeners and performers alike- to build on these programs to expand the reach of the music. Ultimately thats what we do, and we cant do it without  help!  We share a vested interest in making things better (maybe even bigger) and DCBU is one way to make this happen. 

Please understand that we have plans- and desire- for more local shows and activities, but realistically, even before Regina's leaving, we lack the collective horsepower to get this done. Hopefully, you'll consider and can can see yourself joining in and making things better for the DC Metro area music community. 

Feel free to reach out and discuss. 


Thanx-

Matt Slocum

[dcab-l] Re: 'Across the Great Divide' or 'Its a Bridge, Not a Wall' tour 2018...


Hey Everybody- Had a blast at this gig on Thursday, sharing the stage with Nancy, Janine, and John.  Thanx to the folks in the seats- great to see musicians out there for sure!  For those musicians who weren't there, this is a place to consider.  The stage is nice at Lahinch- the house system was easy, and the monitors worked great. Was reluctant to push it earlier, but did for the 3rd set and had no feedback issues. Plenty of room for a quartet. Cheers to the world travelers in attendance who joined in with a few stories. 

The 'Across the Great Divide' tour continues on Sunday,  May 27 where we'll bring some bluesgrass to the Outta the Way cafe in Durwood.

Hey everybody- Its the first time the band has ventured out from NoVa to played in Montgomery County, so I'm thinking,  why not call it a tour??  Everybody's doing it nowadays!

The bridge seems to keep a lot of folks from both sides from crossing over to support their buds- so I thought I'd set up a couple of dates in MoCo to make it easier to get your fill of bluesgrass. 

As far as naming the tour, I'm thinking 'Across the Great Divide' tour sounds more palatable (considering its Mr Prez's current obsession).  So plan on joining in on the tour stop #1 at Lahinch on April 19th. 7-10.  The road crew likes this place because they have a decent house system!

Swing on by (its much more convenient than my usual Falls Church haunts) and join in!  We'll be serving up some bluegrass, with a cup of blues, dash of R&B grooves garnished with some originals for a homemade dish that satisfies the most discerning customer. You'll want another plate!


Who:  Matt Slocum and the Gravel Road Band- with John Relph and Janine Lewis

What: Blues+Bluegrass+R&B+Originals: Bluesgrass

When: Thursday night April 19th, 7-10

Where: Lahinch Tavern, 7727 Tuckerman Lane, Potomac MD- around the back

Why: to support live local music, of course!

[dcab-l] Deer Creek Fiddlers Convention calling all pickers June 3!

Hello Friend,

We are writing to you in affiliation with the DC Bluegrass Union.  We co-produce the DCBU Bluegrass & Old-time Camp every summer in July at Common Ground on the Hill …. this year featuring Mile Twelve and at the festival, the Kruger Brothers!

This summer marks the 46th year that we have produced the Deer Creek Fiddlers Convention.  What makes it work is a lot of hard work on the part of many volunteers, and most importantly, your presence as musicians!  We need you to show up, play some music, win some prizes, win some Eastman instruments, win an appearance at the Gettysburg Bluegrass Festival (August 16-19) and appearances the Common Ground on the Hill Festival (July 14th).

Please consider coming to Deer Creek and entering our contests and play some shade-tree music to help keep this event alive and robust!  Be part of a 46-year tradition!  There are bluegrass, old-time and Celtic categories.

We have moved Deer Creek to a Sunday, figuring that you would be more likely to be able to be with us on a Sunday, rather than a Saturday ….. prime-time for gigs.  The Deer Creek Fiddlers Convention is Sunday, June 3rd.


Deer Creek is held at the scenic Carroll County Farm Museum ….. one of the best places possible for shade-tree picking.  Please consider attending, and be sure to tell your friends!

See You on June 3rd!

Walt Michael

[dcab-l] 'Across the Great Divide' or 'Its a Bridge, Not a Wall' tour 2018...



Hey everybody- Its the first time the band has ventured out from NoVa to played in Montgomery County, so I'm thinking,  why not call it a tour??  Everybody's doing it nowadays!

The bridge seems to keep a lot of folks from both sides from crossing over to support their buds- so I thought I'd set up a couple of dates in MoCo to make it easier to get your fill of bluesgrass. 

As far as naming the tour, I'm thinking 'Across the Great Divide' tour sounds more palatable (considering its Mr Prez's current obsession).  So plan on joining in on the tour stop #1 at Lahinch on April 19th. 7-10.  The road crew likes this place because they have a decent house system!

Swing on by (its much more convenient than my usual Falls Church haunts) and join in!  We'll be serving up some bluegrass, with a cup of blues, dash of R&B grooves garnished with some originals for a homemade dish that satisfies the most discerning customer. You'll want another plate!

[dcab-l] Matt Slocum and Gravel Road Band Crossing the Bridge, playing Lahinch Tavern



Hey Folks- after being stuck in VA recently I'm venturing into Montgomery County. Bluesgrass coming your way-

Consider if Bill Withers, Doc Watson, John Lee Hooker, Bill Monroe, Van Morrison sit down to sing and jam with a soaring fiddle, gritty slide guitar, mando grooves with a jazzy acoustic bass to set the vibe.  


Matt Slocum & the Gravel Road Band- appearing at Lahinch Tavern with the help of two of MoCo's favorite musicians- John Relph and Janine Lewis-


The lowdown-

Who:  Matt Slocum and the Gravel Road Band- with John Relph and Janine Lewis

What: Blues+Bluegrass+R&B+Originals: Bluesgrass

When: Thursday night April 19th, 7-10

Where: Lahinch Tavern, 7727 Tuckerman Lane, Potomac MD- around the back

Why: to support live local music, of course!


Swing by check out how its done on the Gravel Road! Lahinch is a great spot to catch music!
