Michael McNevin is a veteran troubadour of the folk scene, having cut his teeth in the streets of Greenwich Village, NY, and logged over 30 years of concerts across the U.S. He has been on the main stage at Strawberry, Kerrville, and Philadelphia folk festivals. He has a unique voice, is an accomplished guitarist, and, above all, is known for his vivid brand of storytelling in his lyrics. He is a past winner of the Kerrville New-folk award in Texas, and 8-time winner of the West Coast Songwriters Association “Song of The Year”. He has multiple CDs. Michael is also an Etch-a-Sketch artist of renown, delighting and dumbfounding audiences with his song illustrations on the little red toy. For many years he ran the tiny and unique Mudpuddle music shop in downtown Niles, where he also hosted jams and concerts. Michael has played for Fiddling Cricket many times over a 25year period. It is always a delight! www.michaelmcnevin.com
“In his songs, McNevin paints scenes and situations as clear as his Etch A Sketch compositions. He uses plain and unpretentious language and yet vividly creates a reality instantly recognizable to all of us.” …Roselie Howarth, KFOG
The Keller Sisters, Sheryl (guitar, banjo, vocals) and Kerry (cajon, harmonica, uke, vocals), from San Francisco, have a lifetime of singing together, started out by practicing Beatles harmonies as kids and joining their mother in musical theater. Their original material (Americana, folk, blues, musical theater) is filled with harmony, humor, and their warm stage presence. They have released 4 albums.
“…splendid evening, and your material rendered a warm and textual contribution”…..Music at the Meadow
