Eliot Bronson
2022-10-13 19:30 - 22:30 (America/Halifax)
Over the course of five albums, indie folksinger Eliot Bronson has created his own brand of acclaimed Americana. He’s an award-winning songwriter, a road warrior, and an internationally-renowned musician with a voice that swoons and sweeps, championed by everyone from The Baltimore Sun — who’ve hailed him as “a folk singing wunderkind”— to Grammy-winning producer Dave Cobb, whose work on 2014’s Eliot Bronson and 2017’s James placed Bronson on the same client roster as Jason Isbell, Chris Stapleton, and other heartfelt songwriters.
He turns a new page with 2020’s Empty Spaces, a breakup album for the romantics and realists among us. Written after a split from his fiancé and a move from Atlanta to Nashville, Empty Spaces pairs sharply-written songs about loss, leaving, and redemption with quietly cinematic arrangements rooted in electric guitars, vocal harmonies, strings, and Mellotron. Co-produced by Bronson and longtime bandmate Will Robertson, Empty Spaces shines a light on Eliot Bronson at his most compelling, punctuating the woozy warmth of “Visitor,” the heartland pop/rock of “With Somebody,” and all points in between with the sharpest writing of his career. This isn’t just a record about empty spaces, after all. It’s a record about the new discoveries that can fill the void.

ABOUT MARC DOUGLAS BERARDO

Video: The Hard Part – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hn-47D94g18
“Marc Douglas Berardo writes songs that are witty without being superficial, intelligent without being ponderous, fun without being silly. He performs them with an infectious verve. On top of that, he doesn’t seem to have the slightest idea of just how good he is. David Olney, Legendary Songwriter and Performer, Nashville, TN
“High-quality story-telling picking and playing.” Rob Ellen – The Medicine Show Radio Moose Mobile, U.K.
Rhode Island-based Marc Douglas Berardo is a hardworking, fast-moving, adventure-seeking, keen observer who lives for the story and the song. He is nationally recognized for his music and performances (Rocky Mountain Folks Fest Song contest, Telluride Troubadour Contest, Sisters Folk Festival, South Florida Folk Fest, 2013 Rams Head Onstage Rammie for Show of the Year.)
No Depression Magazine called his latest CD Whalebone: a highly polished personal collection with songs that are on the delicate trapeze of poignancy.
In May of 2014, Berardo won the 2014 Wildflower Art and Music Festival Song Contest in Texas. The following week he performed as a finalist in the legendary Kerrville New Folk Contest at the Kerrville Folk Festival. In early 2015, Berardo’s interview and live performance feature on Sirius/XM Satellite Radio’s The Village was voted one of the best of the year by listeners.
Marc Douglas Berardo has shared the stage with heavyweights such as The New Riders of The Purple Sage, The Doobie Brothers, Jimmy LaFave, Martin Sexton, Terri Hendrix, Kevin Welch, and Red Molly, Eric Taylor, The Pousette Dart Band, John Hiatt, and Livingston Taylor.
About his music, Marc says … I try to write about people and situations that interest and entertain me. Subjects and places that I feel a connection with and that are unique in a quiet way. Real people and places caught in the moment, almost like a documentary film or a novel.
On February 25, Marc released a single and official video for “The Hard Part”, a track from his upcoming record.
Bravery. The new song The Hard Part from Marc Douglas Berardo’s forthcoming album inspires you to be brave in the darkest time. With a folk-rock groove, he takes you to a place within yourself to make changes you want to see in the world. Compassion is one of Berardo’s superpower ingredients in his songwriting. MarySue Twohy, SiriusXM Program Director, SiriusXM Satellite Radio
ABOUT DANA COOPER

Video: Dream Darling – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDMFOnHwCf8
Cooper’s lifelong passion & devotion to music began at age 2 in Kansas City. His father, George, was a huge influence. One of Dana’s earliest memories is of his father taking him to the Calico Cat, popping a coin in the jukebox, and listening to Dana sing along with Hank Williams & Ernest Tubb.
At age 20 a move to LA resulted in a record deal with Elektra Records where he recorded his first album with members of The Section Russ Kunkel and Leland Sklar, as well as other luminary players Jim Horn, Al Perkins, Jim Gordon, Joe Osborne, and Lee Holdridge. This album still wins accolades today and was recently reissued on the Warner/Japan label.
After several years in California and a year recording in Seattle, Cooper moved to Texas where he wrote and performed with Shake Russell. They released several independent albums and one album for Southcoast/MCA.
Dana formed his own experimental bands, DC3, and Nuclear Family, and released his first solo project Complicated Stuff. In 1988 he moved to Nashville, TN to pursue his songwriting career collaborating with other songwriters including, Tom Kimmel, Sally Barris, Don Henry, Pat Alger,

The High & Wides project a big, driving sound—mountain musical traditions re-imagined for a new century. With roots in urban Baltimore and the rural Delmarva peninsula, they draw on bluegrass backgrounds and weave in influences from new wave to old time to make music that defies boundaries while evoking the era when country, bluegrass, western swing, and early rock’n’roll mingled freely.
There are three High & Wides albums: 2018’s “Lifted” (named for the gear theft that forced the band to re-record the completed album from scratch) and 2019’s “Seven True Stories” feature the band’s strong songwriting and arranging, and 2022’s “Blood: Family Harmony Classics” highlights H&W’s roots with covers of songs by family harmony groups such as the Kershaw Brothers, Maddox Brothers & Rose, and the Carter Family.

Mark Schatz & Bryan McDowell
2022-10-28 19:30 - 21:30 (America/Halifax)
This multi-generational duo presents a broad spectrum of American acoustic music, and their new CD, Grit & Polish, went to #1 on the DJ Folk Charts in 2021. Both Schatz and McDowell are multi-instrumentalists who cruise seamlessly from old-time to bluegrass, from folk to swing, playing and singing tunes and songs, old and new, including their own original compositions. Western North Carolina native Bryan McDowell grew up in a rich musical environment where he learned everything from Doc Watson to Charlie Parker. Mark has toured and recorded with a who’s who of the acoustic music world including Bela Fleck, Nickel Creek, Tony Rice, and Tim O’Brien. The two worked together in The Claire Lynch Band from 2009 to 2014, and they’re excited to present a new and dynamic show which of course will include some of Mark’s colorful hambone and Appalachian clog dancing.
