SUMMARY:THE BABBAS—ANNIE SELLICK AND PAT BERGESON
DESCRIPTION:Guitarist and harmonica player Pat Bergeson and his wife\, jazz vocalist Annie Sellick appeared  at Boulevard Music as part of the “Hot Club of Nashville\,” one of Music City’s most popular musical groups. This show will spotlight these two fine artists with their own special show of classics and originals. \nNashville-native dread-locked jazz-vocalist Annie Sellick has performed and recorded with most of her heroes (including Joey DeFrancesco\, Bela Fleck and a Mark O’ Connor tour)\, enjoyed stardom in her hometown and toured nationally and internationally.  Annie recently toured all of December as a featured soloist with Tommy Emmanuel. Perhaps her best quality is the organic sincerity she exudes from the stage\, hooking an audience into the stories of the songs she sings. \nRounding out the duo\, Annie’s husband is as versatile a harmonica player as he is a guitarist.  Pat Bergeson moved to Nashville upon Chet Atkins’ request to join his band (He joined Atkins and Jerry Reed to record their album\, Sneakin’ Around) and has performed and recorded with a long list of chart toppers and cult favorites including tours with Lyle Lovett & Madeleine Peyroux. His versatility\, which encompasses jazz\, blues\, rock and finger style\, has led Bergeson to become a popular session musician for several well-known musicians\, including Michael McDonald\, Peter Frampton\, and Tommy Emmanuel. Pat is currently a member of Les Brers\, a new incarnation of the Allman Bros including original members Butch Truck and Jaimoe\,&  former members Oteil Burbridge and Jack Pearson. Pat also toured all of December with Tommy Emmanuel.  \nTogether\, Annie and Pat cover much musical ground with jazz standards\, soulful originals and cabaret classics. The pair brings a high level of skill\, confidence\, ease and charm to each show gaining fans and followers wherever they perform. The music is jazz-based with acoustic guitars\, harmonica and percussion but draws upon many styles creating a show that grooves\, soothes and tells stories. \n \nhttp://www.anniesellick.com/duo

SUMMARY:EVAN MARSHALL & PHIL BOROFF
DESCRIPTION:Tonight Boulevard Music presents two virtuosos on their respective instruments.\n Awesome mandolinist Evan Marshall with classic arrangements from Beatle tunes to Vivaldi.  What sounds like a small choir of mandolins playing bass lines\, chordal accompaniment\, and tremolo melodies is in fact nothing except Evan Marshall all by himself. Which would not mean much in this Age of the Overdub except for one astounding fact: Marshall plays all this music live\, at once\, on one mandolin\, with no overdubs at all. That’s four tiny pairs of strings and one flatpick\, plus a stray finger or ten.\n These feats of the impossible are something like what Chet Atkins did on guitar — Atkins\, in fact\, commended Marshall as “one of the few great musicians of our time.” \nPlus great flatpicker Phil Boroff who learned directly from flatpicking/bluegrass legend Clarence White. More tasty traditional guitar licks than you can imagine. A  phenomenal flatpicker as well as fingerstyle blues player and clawhammer/old-timey banjo player. \nhttp://www.evanjmarshall.com

SUMMARY:SLIGO RAGS
DESCRIPTION:Named among the top acoustic bands in LA (by Folkworks Magazine) and two-time winners of the Orange County Music Award for Best Folk Band\, the dynamic ensemble Sligo Rags presents Celtic Folk with a decidedly bluegrass attitude. Sligo Rags is taking the local and not-so-local Folk and Celtic music scenes by storm with a unique blend of eclectic musical influences. Dan Miller of Flatpicking Guitar Magazine says “These guys have it all–great vocals\, lots of energy\, captivating songs\, well executed arrangements\, and tasteful solos.” Their debut studio recording\, “The Night Before the Morning After”\, was called “the best I’ve heard from a stateside band” by Celtic Beat Magazine\, while their sophomore effort\, “The Whiskey Never Lies\,” (called “the best from the West Coast Celts in many years” by Shay Clark of the Irish-American News)\, was named one of the top 10 of 2007 by Folkworks. Don’t be surprised if elements of country\, gypsy jazz and swing manage to sneak their way into the act as well. Award-winning flatpicking and fingerstyle guitarist David Burns (recently featured in Flatpicking Guitar Magazine)\, fiddler extraordinaire Michael Kelly\, and world-renowned bassist Eli Marcus are guaranteed to fill the room and your lives with electricity. They may give you a good laugh or two along the way as well. \n“Sligo Rags have mastered the ability to take songs from a time gone by and make them fresh and relevant for a modern audience. Their passion for the music and their willingness to take risks combine for an outstanding live show.”–Music Connection \nhttp://www.sligorags.com

SUMMARY:GRAMMY AWARD WINNING GUITARIST ED GERHARD
DESCRIPTION:Performing on 6-string\, 12-string\, slide guitar or Acoustic Hawaiian Lap Slide\, Gerhard captivates his audiences with virtuosity\, generosity and sly humor.  Known for his gorgeous tone and compositional depth\, Gerhard can move a listener with a single note.  Scott Alalrik of the Boston Globe said it best when he wrote ‘Gerhard does not write instrumentals.  He writes songs only a guitar can sing. \nGerhard’s relationship with the guitar began at age 10\, when he happened upon classical guitar master Andrés Segovia on TV. “I’d heard all the pop music on the radio and maybe a little of that 60’s folk stuff\, but this was the first time I’d ever heard the guitar all by itself and the sound just instantly got me\,” he remembers. Ed finally got his first guitar at 14. His initial interest in classical guitar changed dramatically when he heard the music of bluesman Mississippi John Hurt. He quit lessons after the third one. He took some informal lessons with friends and learned by ear\, slowing down LPs to half-speed to pick out the tricky parts. At fifteen\, Ed was already beginning to perform in local church basement coffeehouses\, playing solo and jamming with friends. \nIn 1977 Gerhard moved to New Hampshire where he has resided ever since. Joining a thriving folk and acoustic music scene proved invaluable for the young guitarist. “There seemed to be no limitation on places to play back then\, or more importantly\, what you could play” says Ed. “You could play anything you wanted as long as people stayed around and drank.” When Gerhard was not performing solo he could often be seen sitting in with other musicians. “I loved to play\, it didn’t matter if I was solo or sideman.” During this period Ed began composing and arranging music for solo guitar\, using a staggering array of alternative guitar tunings. \nBased truly on the quality of his work\, Ed built his considerable reputation\, beginning with his debut album “Night Birds” in 1987. It garnered a spot in the Boston Globe Critics Poll Top 10 Albums of the Year.” Shortly after the album’s release\, Windham Hill Records included Ed on its Guitar Sampler (Vol.1). One of the highlights of the three hundred thousand unit selling Sampler\, “The Handing Down” introduced the world to the beauty of Ed Gerhard’s music. “That one piece made me a lot of friends around the world\,” Ed says. \nEd has released his ninth CD “There and Gone.” He was awarded a GRAMMY® for his inclusion on the CD “Henry Mancini; Pink Guitar.” Warner Brothers\, MelBay and Hal Leonard have all released Ed Gerhard’s music in books. His guitar work can be heard on recordings by Arlo Guthrie\, Jorma Kaukonen\, Bill Morrissey  and in the Ken Burns films “Mark Twain” and “ The National Parks: America’s Best Idea.” \nEd’s CD “Luna” is featured in Acoustic Guitar Magazine’s 20th Anniversary list of the “240 Essential Albums.” “This soulful album of original compositions rich in melody\, chordal complexity and stylistic variety proves why Gerhard is considered to have the most exquisite acoustic guitar tone on the planet.” -Acoustic Guitar Magazine \nAlong with players like Ben Harper and David Lindley\, Gerhard’s unique approach to the Weissenborn (an acoustic Hawaiian lap slide guitar) is playing a significant role in reinvigorating interest in this somewhat esoteric but beautiful instrument. Ed’s style of Weissenborn playing is unique in that he composes and arranges music for solo Weissenborn with beautiful melodies\, complex chords and moving basslines\, unusual for an instrument that normally serves an accompaniment role. Ed is featured in the book “Lap Steel Guitar” alongside legendary players like Greg Leisz\, David Lindley\, Jerry Byrd and more. \nhttp://www.virtuerecords.com

On the heels of “Smashing Songs of Stage & Screen\,” their first album in nearly 15 years\, “Big Daddy\, The Band of ‘59” is back. This show will be one of the band’s first live performances since the mid- 90’s! From 1983 to 1994\, Big Daddy roamed the Rock & Roll landscape foraging for the hit songs of the day\, plucking them from the charts\, chewing them up\, digesting them and then spitting them back out\, never to sound the same. Though the lyrics and melodies were virtually unchanged\, the songs sounded as if they had been written and recorded in the golden age of Rock & Roll…the 1950’s. Today\, this type of song reworking is called a “Mash Up” and Big Daddy is now credited as The Mash Up Kings of Rockabilly\, DooWop\, R & B\, & Pop…if it’s from the 50’s\, Big Daddy is all over it. Randy Lewis said it best in his 2012 L.A. Times article on the band: “More than a gimmick\, Big Daddy created new takes on Pop and Rock songs that were consistently inspired\, illuminating and often hilarious.” – Randy Lewis\, L.A. Times\, 10-4-12. The band his released six studio albums and countless other recordings\, including their 1985 top 20 UK hit\, “Dancing In The Dark”…a send up of the Bruce Springsteen classic. Their 1992 “Sgt. Pepper’s” tribute album continues to receive consistent radio airplay on SiriusXM’s “Little Steven’s Underground Garage.” From London’s Wembley Arena (with Gary Glitter) to Germany and Australia\, Big Daddy has preached… “50’s music is still cool.” Their US shows at The Universal Amphitheatre (with Jay Leno)\, New York’s The Bottom Line\, The Palomino\, The Groundlings Theatre and Pasadena’s own Ice House have all seen Big Daddy spread their joyful irreverence. Don’t miss it!\nbigdaddy59.com \nCulver City’s Boulevard Music Festival is sponsored by The City of Culver City\, Sony Pictures Entertainment\, Culver Studios\, Boulevard Music\, John Riordan Plumbing\, Culver City Volvo & Mazda\, Palm Court\, Hooman Chevrolet\, D & E Associates\, Swiss Motors\, Combined Properties\, Hillside Memorial Park\, Gates Kingsley Gates\, Crave Desserts\, Bella Vista Pizza\, Cavanaugh Realty\, Public School 310\, Culver Hotel\, Courtyard Marriott\, Michael Kayem Remax Estate Properties\, Tower Insurance\, Dolce Realtors\, Sorrento Market\, Southern California Hospital\, Maxam Properties\, Music Munchers\, Dynagraphics\, Culver City News\, Culver City Observer\, Steeldeck Inc\, Eastman Strings\, Kremona\, Ohana\, Ernie Ball\, and more to be confirmed soon as sponsorships are still available.

You’ll be invited to sing along\, share in the memories\, learn new songs and howl at the moon (literally!) The music of the late John Denver is like an old friend\, outlasting trends and standing the test of time. Join acclaimed performer Jim Curry for this tribute to the music of one of the most beloved singer/songwriters ever to grace the stage. Tribute artist Jim Curry\, who’s voice was heard in the CBS-TV movie Take Me Home: The John Denver Story\, has performed Denver’s music in sold out shows throughout the country and has emerged as today’s top performer of Denver’s vast legacy of multi-platinum hits. Jim’s uncanny ability to mirror John’s voice and clean-cut look takes you back to the time when “Rocky Mountain High” “Sunshine” “Calypso” and “Annie’s Song” topped the charts\, and his popular music had the heartfelt message of caring for the earth and caring for each other. Denver’s message is worth repeating: “Be kind to the Earth and to each other. ” Jim will appear with his wife\, Anne who plays mandolin and guitar\, sings harmony and generally keeps Jim in line! Together\, they will take you on a musical journey of the heart\, where you will be invited to sing\, clap your hands\, stomp your feet and howl at the moon.
