SUMMARY:Brian Smalley in concert! Matt Hannam opens.
DESCRIPTION:We are so excited to welcome Brian Smalley back to our stage at the beginning of our fall/winter “We’re BACK series” ! And equally excited that one of our founding members\,\nMatt Hannam\, will play an opening set.\nWe hope that you will join us in this very special evening at the ACMA.\nSuggested donation.  $18.00\nMasks not required for those fully vaccinated. Please keep in mind that COVID-19 is not gone\, and there are new variants that still threaten our health and welfare. We appreciate everyone taking all necessary precautions to to keep you and your fellow audience members safe..\nwww.briansmalley.com\nhttp://www.reverbnation.com/matthannam\n\n\nHere’s a bit about Brian\n“Brian Smalley is a Florida guitar picker with ten crafty fingers\, a variety of musical styles and multiple personalities” Having played guitar all his life\, Brian has developed some skill on the git-box\, and possessing a creative (and somewhat disturbed) imagination\, he is a master storyteller. Before ‘CHOSEN\,’ he’d recorded six projects. His acoustic novel “ChickensPigs” received the Best Florida Folk CD award from The Florida Times Union in 2013. And thousands have enjoyed the tale of Painter Kellet\, a homeless man in Key West\, from the acoustic novel ‘KEY.’ But now the floodgates have been loosed\, and teaming up with Gatorbone Recording Studio\, Brian and friends give us some real ear-candy with ‘CHOSEN.’ Over the top production value\, musicianship to beat the band\, and a riveting storyline makes this a pleasurable and thrilling listening experience.

SUMMARY:Feed Florida - featuring Dan Philgreen
DESCRIPTION:Feed Florida is a weekly ACMA sponsored event raising money for our local food bank. Each Monday will feature a different musical guest with all proceeds going directly to the Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida.\nHosting the series is ACMA member Kim Mayfield.\nThis week our featured act is Dan Philgreen….\nAfter failed attempts at violin and piano\, Dan Philgreen picked up the guitar in the 7th grade. Like many of his age he was very influenced by the many singer-songwriters that were at the height of their popularity during the 70’s when he was in high school\, as well as the folk-rock bands of that era\, such as Crosby\, Stills\, and Nash. He has played in church for much of his life but has also always had a love for folk music which never had much of an outlet before his moving to Fort Myers\, where he is now the Technical Arts Manager at Shell Point’s new Tribby Arts Center and is an on-camera Anchor on their daily in-house TV show. The founding of the Americana Community Music Association opened a door of opportunity to develop and share his music in a community of folks who are also passionate about this genre. Though he dabbled in song-writing earlier in his life and had a few songs to his credit\, the inspiration of the ACMA’s songwriter’s circle spurred him to write many more songs over the past few years. His playing has also developed to a higher point in the last decade and he says that\, with age\, his voice is finally starting to cooperate as well. Dan’s songs are based on his observations of life and the beauty he sees in the world. They deal with the challenges of life honestly\, but always attempt to leave the listener with hope.\n\nIf you are able to help provide financial support\, there will be a link to donate under the video.

SUMMARY:Feed Florida- a weekly benefit for the Harry Chapin Food Bank featuring Bill Veach
DESCRIPTION:ACMA is sponsoring this weekly event to raise money for the Harry Chapin Food Bank of Fort Myers. Each Monday will feature a different musical guest. All proceeds go directly to the Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida.\nThe host for the series is ACMA member Kim Mayfield.\nThis week our featured act is Bill Veach. Bill was originally a drummer\, but the road and drums do not easily mix\, so he spent $100 of his precious beer money on a guitar that he has dragged around the world and back again. His style is as varied as his experiences\, so there are songs about travel\, people he has met and the stories they told\, and songs inspired by the isolation of the pandemic.

SUMMARY:ZOOM concert with Jaime Michaels. Ray Cerbone opens
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a fun Zoom concert with our friends Jaime Michaels and ACMA member Ray Cerbone! This concert is free but donations will be accepted for musician support. Here’s the link!\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/83298366038…\n\nAbout Jaime\n“… truly inspiring … a vital\, alive\, creative artist who is as sharp\, in touch\, poignant andtimely as anyone. He’s simply an artist committed to growing who is on the journey with a mission to seek\, learn and connect with art …\nErik Balkey – Hudson Harding Music\nA venue operator in California refers to Jaime Michaels as a “songwriters’ songwriter.” He came late to the craft having enjoyed a long career as a covers artist both as a soloist and\, for a while\, full tilt rock and roll band lead singer with The Truly Dangerous Swamp Band. Not being much of a radio fan\, he chose his covers carefully…sometimes something recognizable like Dylan or the Beatles\, sometimes just damned fine songs he happened to run across from lesser known writers like Canadian Murray MacLauchlan. He sang the hell out of all of them.\nSomething happened a few years back when he moved west\, far from his east coast roots\, to a new home in Santa Fe\, NM. Maybe it was just the change of scenery\, something in the big western night sky…but the songs started coming. Finely crafted. Tuneful. Both spirited and spiritual…songs of kindness and true emotion. Eleven albums\, so far\, with Jono Manson in the producer’s chair for the past nine. Their 2013 effort\, unknown blessings\, is a fund raiser with 100% of the sales going to the Kerrville Folk Festival Foundation’s teen music camp. That album along with 2011’s the man with the time machine and most recently\, 2016’s once upon a different time\, have all won the New Mexico Music Awards album of the year award.\nJaime continues touring both in the US and in Italy where once upon a different time was released on Appaloosa records in 2016. He toured in Italy in December 2017 with keyboardist Radoslav Lorcović. 2018 dates included a mainstage set at the 2018 Kerrville folk festival\, a summer tour in California and a tour in Texas in the fall with fellow singer songwriter Rj Cowdery.”. He appeared next on Appaloosa Records’ tribute album to Townes Van Zandt\, The Wind Blows\, on the first track\, a stellar cover of Snowing On Raton.\nIn 2019\, a new album\, if you fall\, was released on Appaloosa Records\, a collaboration between Jono\, Jaime and a new recording band consisting of Austinites Paul Pearcy on drums and Ronnie Johnson on bass\, NYC/Nashville veteran pedal steel\, mandolin\, guitar wiz Jon Graboff and on keyboards and accordions\, Radoslav Loković. As always\, there are some stellar originals (if you fall\, red buddha laughs\, so it goes & carnival town among them). Also a couple of moving covers\, Greg Trooper’s they call me Hank and an English translation of legendary Italian singer songwriter Francesco de Gregori’s most famous song\, Rimmel\, which has already been featured on RAI\, Italian state television.\nIn 2020\, the global pandemic struck just as Jaime was heading to Italy for a tour. The virus curtailed Jaime’s touring for the past year. In the meantime he has been performing online and has just released a single\, co-written with Austin songwriter Jeff Talmadge\, called “in My Home” about the strange times we find ourselves in.\nIt Is receiving global airplay.\na few kind words:\n“He writes songs with special meanings…with a sense of purpose\, a sense of belief that music is as critical to life as breathing itself.”\nWanda Adams Fischer WAMC/NY\n“Jaime Michaels creates songs that follow the lives of ancestors and neighbors in tales told with the graceful edge of a master storyteller.”\nDanny McCloskey / the Alternate Root\nHopefully soon\, Jaime’s travels will continue to take him around the US and occasionally to Europe\, playing house concerts\, festivals\, and arts venues. Just Jaime and his wonderfully worn Taylor guitar. And the songs.\nwww.jaimemichaels.com\nAND Ray Cerbone!\nOne of the founding members of the Fort Myers ACMA (Americana Community Music Association)\, Ray began playing guitar during the late 60’s folk scene. With the support and inspiration of fellow local and touring musicians\, he began writing and playing in earnest in 2010. Traveling a long road in a short time\, his music encompasses many genres\, including Americana\, Folk\, Blues\, Ballads\, and a little bit of Country. His storyteller style takes the listener to another place in time\, his music and lyrics bringing evocative insights into the many sides of life. Ray is also a singer-songwriter’s song-singer. That is\, he does interpretive covers of great originals by other very talented singer/songwriters using his own creative touch. His inventive fingerstyle guitar is uniquely diverse and easy-on-the-ears. Ray’s recently released CD\, “How Much Time”\, has received glowing reviews stateside and overseas.\nwww.steelonwood.com

SUMMARY:Feed Florida - ACMA showcase to benefit the Harry Chapin Food Bank of SW Florida
DESCRIPTION:ACMA is sponsoring this weekly event to raise money for the Harry Chapin Food Bank of Southwest Florida. Each Monday will feature a different musical guest. All proceeds go directly to the Harry Chapin Food Bank.\nHosting this series is our own Kim Mayfield.\nThis week our featured artist is Karen Cohen. She began playing guitar as a teenager\, finger picking Traditional Folk songs and Contemporary Acoustic Musicians of the 60’s and 70’s. The Blues Revival at that time was on her radar\, but her interest in Delta Style and Pre-war Blues was not piqued until 2005. Role models for Woman Blues players were far and few between\, but Karen became inspired by 2 modern day trailblazers; Bonnie Raitt and Rory Block.\nMore recently\, Karen’s focus has turned to the Early Women of the Blues\, interpreting their songs and bring their music to light.\nKaren brings an authentic feel to their music\, and like them\, she adds her own authenticity to all the songs she writes and covers.\nIf you are able to help provide financial support\, there will be a link to donate under the video.

SUMMARY:Sally Barris Facebook Live Stream/ACMA member John Tilley Opens
DESCRIPTION:Sally has graced the ACMA stage in person a few times in our history. We’ve always been so glad to have her back….This time Sally will be with us virtually for a Facebook Live Stream. She’s been working on and releasing a brand new CD! Looking forward to hearing wonderful music from Sally Barris!\nSally Barris is a Nashville songwriter who has had songs covered by such top-level artists as Kathy Mattea\, Martina McBride\, and Lee Ann Womack. Her song “Let The Wind Chase You\,” recorded by Trisha Yearwood and Keith Urban\, received a Grammy nomination for vocal collaboration in 2009.While her writing credits mightily impress\, fans and peers are most captivated by her bright spirit and expressive mountain soprano. Dirty Linen says “Barris knows how to write lyrics that are as forthright as a stream of clear water and how to support them with melodies that share that quality”. Sally also performs with Templeton Thompson and Sam Gay in a trio called “The High Lonesome Dreamers”. The Minnesota native has performed Mountain Stage\, New Bedford Summer Fest\, Wildflower Arts & Music Festival and The Kerrville Folk Festival. Sally recently released her sixth CD\, “Grasshopper Mile”.\nwww.sallybarris.com\nOpening for Sally is new ACMA member John Tilley. One of the silver linings of the pandemic is that the ACMA has been able to give our remote musicians a virtual opportunity to share their music with the ACMA and the general public.\nJohn sings Americana and was told by a major promo firm that he sings the “best Americana they have ever heard.” And just for fun he sings a lot of Classic Rock on Acoustic and some Country. He sings great John Denver and Elvis Tributes. He is critically acclaimed in Nashville and has many awards for Best Americana song and seven #1 hits in Americana on the radio. In the International Acoustic Awards with thousands of entrants from all over the world he made the quarterfinals.\nhttps://www.reverbnation.com/johntilley1620

SUMMARY:Claudia Schmidt/Chuck Williams concert
DESCRIPTION:Claudia was scheduled to perform at the ACMA this year after starting the booking process at least THREE years ago. Well\, she’s still singing for us\, but on youtube. Please join the ACMA for this pre-recorded ticketed youtube event for an evening of awesome music. Opening set by Chuck Williams!\nA LINK TO THE YOUTUBE WILL BE SENT TO TICKET HOLDERS PRIOR TO THE SHOW.\nClaudia Schmidt has been perfecting her craft of performing for almost four decades. It is a quirky and wonderful hodge-podge (her word!) of music\, poetry\, story\, laughter. drama\, and celebrating the moment. Work in clubs\, theaters\, festivals\, TV\, radio has added depth and dimension\, and since she has always included her original work along with very personal versions of the work of others\, what you get is a unique look at the world from someone who says what she sees with clarity\, humor\, and wonder. The San Francisco Bay Guardian said: Schmidt’s shows are a lot like falling in love. You never know what’s going to happen next\, chances are it’s going to be wonderful\, every moment is burned into your memory and you know you’ll never be the same again.” More succinctly\, Garrison Keiilor said “when Claudia sings a song\, it stays sung”\nwww.claudiaschmidt.com\nChuck Williams has been appearing throughout New England and in recent years has gone coast to coast with his music. He has been traveling to coffeehouses\, performing arts centers and festivals sowing seeds of his songs along the way.\nChuck has mastered is how to pull at Americana heartstrings and tell rootsy stories through his simple and effective novella type lyrics. Chuck has a personable singing style and it’s not done to impress but express.\nHis music has some of the same energies of songwriters such as David Crosby\, John Prine\, and definitely Neil Young\, while not sounding like any of them. There is something here that a lot of people are going to latch on to\, especially in these trying times. Chuck’s music does exactly what it is suppose to do…..it reaches emotions in the listener. It gives words to feelings we all share and provokes thought long after the music is over. His style is unique yet it feels familiar.
