Live performance by Melaena Cadiz
 
Melaena Cadiz had been busily preparing for the May 20th release of her second album, "Deep Below Heaven." Cadiz has a touch of a vocal growl underscoring her delicately soulful songs. In 2013, she released a song each month that she put up on Bandcamp as "The Singles Project." For her latest, Melaena was inspired by her Photographer/husband Mikael Kennedy's small portraits of people and places in the American landscape, and by a line from a Sam Shepard story. Melaena and her band played some of these songs live.

Live performance by Leif Vollebekk
 
Canadian singer-songwriter Leif Vollebekk played a short set, recorded when he breezed through town last month. Vollebekk's vocal style is very reminiscent of Jeff Buckley, but there's a touch of Dylan's improvisational style in his delivery. Lief's songs conjure up the many places he traveled in North America in search of the perfect recorded take on the songs. Leif Vollebekk is in the middle of a tour that leads to the Newport Folk Festival in July, and dropped by to play some songs for Irene.

@Van: Mollusk! We were out of luck when visiting DC/Baltimore last April. :, I'd been there before, but it was Philo who really lost out on his first trip to his adopted nation's capitol.

maybe so. I'm not really up on hm. At one time he did reside in No. VT. Thanks anyway.

Van in DC:

That's too bad kat! Gotta get back!

I take full advantage nearly every day, working right across the street from the Smithsonian Castle / Mall. Most people here do not; I find that just amazing that they don't
Avatar 12:49pm
kat330:

@Van: Hasn't the Monument been shut down ever since your arrival there though?
Avatar 12:52pm
Van in DC:

I was here a year before it shut down but never went. Then I transferred for a year to Dallas, TX, and the earthquake hit DC on my birthday in 2011. That closed the monument until exactly one week ago, and I've been back in DC for almost 2.5 yrs now

I do something touristy almost every day at lunch. A museum, a monument, White House, Capitol, etc. etc.:)

Good on ya. Reminding me that May is "Hometown Tourist" month in Lullville when many attractions have reduced prices -- um, not free here as are most "touristy" things in D.C.

semi-related to Jansch: Zep being sued by Mark Andes of Spirit to try to get Randy California's name added to "Stairway.." due to its similarity to 'Taurus', on 1st Spirit album (1968)...Page re-mastering Zep albums and IV due out fairly soon..

@Kat330 I haven't checked my gmail for a few days. I am in email avoidance mode. So many people want to communicate with me but so few have anything important to say. You are an exception. I'll check it out.

Well, I dunno if it would come to your gmail -- depends on your SC settings -- but it should be in your mail area actually on SC. Just curious how many ever make it to the intended destinations.
