“I sing of brooks, of blossoms, birds, and bowers:
Of April, May, of June, and July-flowers.
I sing of maypoles, hock-carts, wassails, wakes,
Of bridegrooms, brides, and of their bridal cakes.” (Robert Herrick)
“Running barefoot through the pasture
Sunday evening baseball games
The old men talked about the weather
It never changed... it stayed the same
We need rain... the crops are dry
Gonna be... one hot July.” (One Hot July, by Tony Joe White)
“In this
day and age of so much "cookie cutter" music, all so digitally perfect,
etc. - I felt like I was transported back to a time when people only made music
for the True Love Of It.” Pamela Polland, www.pamelapolland.com/ commenting on Chappell & Dave’s Stone & Fire CD.
Our fundraiser at Stevie Coyle’s Mighty Fine Guitars, 85 Lafayette Circle, Lafayette, in support of FAR-West, was a great success! As Jeanette Lundgren of Mother Hen Promotions reported, “And now - drumroll! We raised $685 altogether with donated CD sales, cookie sales, and the door. Very Nice.” See this Stone & Fire performance with John Roy Zat on fiddle, and this video for Indian Maiden featuring the fabulous Karl Hartman on bass.
Preparations are underway for the FAR-West conference being held in Oakland this October 16-19 at the Marriott City Center. Chappell is helping put together the Best of the West awards, one for a Performer of the Year, and for Ambassador of the Year. The FAR-West organization promotes traditional, contemporary and multicultural folk music, dance and related performing arts. If you’d like to register, please go to: http://www.far-west.org/far-west-2014.html. Evening concerts are open to the public at a nominal cost ($15.) with no registration required.
Every Monday night in Marin County an interesting event takes place, “Salons For Your Imagination, Wow!” hosted by Angar Mora. The evening salon begins with food and conversation at Café Arrivederci. Following the dinner, we will be presenting our music on Monday July 21, with books and CDs available for purchase. Start time is 5:30 and the event ends at 8:45. Cafe Arrivederci is on 11 G Street, San Rafael, CA. For reservations, please call Angar Mora at 415-492-8870.
Music by Chappell & Dave Holt Playing on KC Cafe Radio
You may request up to 2 songs per hour, and no more than 10 songs per day.

Click the “request” button associated with the selection you would like to hear. Your selection should then play sometime over the course of the next hour. Timeliness may be affected by the number of other requests waiting to be played, special programming scheduled to air, or other factors relating to the regular rotation of music playing at the time.
