Tom Neilson at Feed April 8th

Come hear the great Tom Neilson in an intimate concert at Feed Arts & Cultural Center on April 8th at 7 PM.

In a time when we need it most, Tom provides a voice for all those who believe in the power of music to effect social change. Singing since the age of three, his music reflects a quick wit, creatively using folk music to make a point.

Here are a couple samples of his more light hearted songs.

And here’s a link to one of his more serious records.

Song Ideas for October 1st

Here’s where you can submit ideas in the comments (or email me to noebie@gmail.com) and I’ll add them to the list.

If you have links to lyrics, chords, videos or what-have-you please include those.

I’ve put together another Evernote to hold lyrics sheets, and here’s the YouTube Playlist. We’ll add to both of those as new material comes in.

As always, as we go around the circle folks will be able to lead or suggest songs that don’t make this prep list, but I’d encourage you to submit ideas here if possible, so we can get some familiarity with the songs ahead of time.

Come sing with us on October 1st!

The Joe Hill Road Show kicks off its tour in Chicago on May Day to celebrate the music, life, and legacy of martyred IWW labor songwriter Joe Hill (1879-1915). The legendary Hill was judicially executed by firing squad in 1915 on a trumped up murder charge in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Join Chicago musician Bucky Halker and emcee Paul Durica, as well as musicians Anne Feeney, Jan Hammarlund, and JP Wright for a night of Joe Hill songs and readings. Alexis Buss joins them for a presentation about a new Joe Hill memorial songbook.
