M & M SONGWRITERS CONCERT SERIES PRESENTS Da VINES

Hey Folks,

This blog started out giving you posts of the songwriter’s notes, lyrics, and music for my original songs. As with many things, it has gone in new directions. So, if you just started reading my post and are interested in my original material, here is a link to mySongwriter Notes.

On Sunday, 6/3, from 3 to 5 PM Fred and Alex Vine (Da Vines) will be our guests in the Quiote of Rio Tomatlan (106 Bemis Street, Canandaigua, NY). This father and son duo gets better and better every time I hear them play the blues. Take a look at the videos listed below, and you’ll get a feel for their music!
”Steady Chump Change”
”Mr. Bean”
”Century 21”
”Who’s Who of the Blues”
”Salvation Song”

The concert is free, but we do ask for donations to support our performers. Siobhan has created six CDs, one for each of our six seasons that were held in The Side Room of Buffalo Bill’s. Each CD contains songs of the performers who appeared during that season. The requested donation for each CD is $10, and the proceeds go to the performers who are playing on the day of the donation. Since the performers who played in Buffalo Bill’s Side Room will now be playing in Quiote at Rio Tomatlan, the CDs will give you a good feel for what to expect in the upcoming shows.

Here is a link to videos of performers playing in the Side Room. The videos will give you a feel of how much fun we have had at each show., and I hope the fun will continue at Rio Tomatlan. Check them out!

Hope you can join us!
All the best,

Siobhan and Frank
