On Sunday, November 23, at The Nook Café & Gallery, Hal played with Rami Gabriel on guitar and electronics and Rob Wallace on drums and percussion. The Trio played the music, songs and poems of Hal Onserud, improvising and tweaking their instruments to produce interesting music that went from symphonic to abstract.
Our 4th Open Mic night at the The Nook Café & Gallery was a great success (September 15, 2008). We had great musicians, an appreciative crowd and delicious cheesecake. Pat tried out his new Blueberry Cheesecake recipe on us and I think its my new favorite in the Pat Garrett line-up!
As for the show, we were graced with the awesome talents of Kerry Spitzer and Janice Swartz first thing on the line up. They played beautifully and their positive support of the Open Mic and other musicians is a beautiful thing.
Don Hazelwood and Rogers Randle Jr. were next and were great, providing us with some old school country.
Pat Garrett also gave us some old school country. I always love his version of “A Boy Named Sue”. And of course he gave in and played some of his own funny tunes by my request. Pat always thoroughly entertains us as well as filling us up with yummy Cheesecake!
Josie Rodriguez read some stirring original poetry and Next on the line-up was Chris Sipos who is an amazing musician who I swear knows every song in the world! He did some originals and an awesome version of Talking Heads “Nothing But Flowers”. I’m a huge Heads fan, so that made me happy.
Larry “SugarBear” Thomas played some awesome keys with Jason Kent on guitar and Roger on Sax again. He entertained us with some of his beautiful original pieces.
We wrapped things up, said goodnite, but then Jason and Chris decided to give us a Pink Floyd tribute to honor Richard Wright ,the keyboardist who passed away yesterday. It was so COOL!
So it was really a wonderful night full of good music, laughter and yummy food!
Southeastern Wisconsin singer/songwriter, David Tomaloff, offers music lovers a sneak peek at his brand new album, “Birds on Wires”, which is slated for release in mid-October.
Tomaloff has been best known for his work with the independent rock and roll outfit, The Dammitheads, whose two self-released albums garnered a fair share of critical praise and song placements on such shows as “Invasion” and MTV’s “Real World: Road Rules”.
His most recent musical incarnation finds Tomaloff decidedly many miles from the Dammitheads’ sound, immersed in a unique and ardent blend of Americana, Roots, and Folk Rock, all distilled and delivered in the form of his most accomplished and compelling work yet; a ten-song album titled, Birds on Wires.
