Folk Music Society of Huntington

Last Saturday night, we got to perform at the local Folk Music Society of Huntington. The talented and charming Italian guitarist Beppe Gambetta was the headliner for the evening. Prior to his performance, the FMSH opened the mike to local talent. Out of eight terrific performers, we were the last act on the list. I performed an acoustic version of "Artist on the Album" along with guitarist Brian Unger and Rich H., who provided beautiful harmonies. After we finished, we received a rousing applause. I was so flattered by the positive response. It's great when people are actually listening to the music. When I walked back to my seat, several people came up to me to offer their thoughts and compliments. They also admitted that the lyrics made them cry. "Artist on the Album," is powerful song. It is one of my favorite songs to perform because it is a sad and true story about my absent father. If people respond to the song on an emotional level, than I feel like I did a good job in getting the message across to them.

The FMSH is a wonderful organization. As a result of this performance, I was invited to be part of the Member's Showcase Event on January 2nd. I am so flattered and grateful for the opportunity to share my music with others who in turn, show their appreciation in so many ways!

Hope you're all well...
