SUMMARY:ACMA@TheAlliance with Rod MacDonald. Ross Jordan opens
DESCRIPTION:The ACMA is happy to once again be partnering with The Alliance For The Arts to present monthly Americana music concerts at the GreenMarket outdoor stage on the Alliance grounds. Folk Icon Rod MacDonald starts off the season. Ross Jordan will open.\nHow reservations work for outdoor concerts: We will be accepting the first 132 people for concert reservations. IF weather threatens the outdoor concert it will be moved to our indoor theatre for general admission seats. If there is no weather threat we will sell additional tickets at the door the day of the concert.\nTickets at www.artinlee.org\nGeneral public $16/ACMA/Alliance members $15\nRod MacDonald is an American singer-songwriter\, novelist\, and educator. He was a “big part of the 1980s folk revival in Greenwich Village clubs”\, performing at the Speakeasy\, The Bottom Line\, Folk City\, and the “Songwriter’s Exchange” at the Cornelia Street Cafe. He co-founded the Greenwich Village Folk Festival\, now a non-profit\, and is still the President and co-producer of its events. He is perhaps best known for his songs “American Jerusalem”\, about the “contrast between the rich and the poor in Manhattan” (Sing Out!)\, “A Sailor’s Prayer”\, “Coming of the Snow”\, “Every Living Thing”\, and “My Neighbors in Delray”\, a description of the September 11 hijackers’ last days in Delray Beach\, Florida\, where MacDonald has lived since 1995. His songs have been covered by Dave Van Ronk\, Shawn Colvin\, Four Bitchin’ Babes\, Jonathan Edwards\, Garnet Rogers\, Joe Jencks\, and others. His 1985 recording “White Buffalo” is dedicated to Lakota Sioux ceremonial chief and healer Frank Fools Crow\, whom he visited in 1981 and 1985\, and who appears with MacDonald in the cover photograph. Since 1995 MacDonald has lived in south Florida\, where his cd\, “Later that Night” was named “Best Local Cd of 2014” by The Palm Beach Post and reached the top ten in national roots music charts. His first novel\, The Open Mike\, about a young man in the open mike scene of Greenwich Village\, was published on December 5\, 2014\, by Archway Publishing. On December 10\, 2020\, MacDonald released his 13th solo recording\, Boulevard\, on Blue Flute Music.\n\nA tenor with a clear voice and wide range\, MacDonald is often cited for both his musicality and the content of his songs about political and social events: “Rod MacDonald is a brilliant folk singer and composer. His melodic songs possess words that go straight into your heart and soul.” The Press Of Atlantic City … “A poet with a lot on his mind who has never allowed himself to make points at the expense of making music.” The Boston Globe … “True to the folk tradition\, MacDonald is not afraid to get political\, take chances\, and perhaps shock some people….MacDonald’s place in the folk hall of fame is assured by his ‘A Sailor’s Prayer\,’ a hymn-styled tune that many people have mistaken for a traditional song.” All-Music Guide.\nAlthough usually labeled a folk singer\, his musical styles include rock\, pop\, country\, light jazz\, and blues. In addition to his work in Greenwich Village and Florida\, he has written extensively of experiences on US Indian reservations and in Europe\, living in Italy from 1989 to 1992.\nwww.rodmacdonald.com.\nAmericana Community Music Association member musician Ross Jordan will open the show. Ross has been writing songs since he picked up a guitar at age 10. His songs reflect the regional influences from all of the parts of the country that he has lived from New Jersey to the West Coast to the Mid-West and now Southwest Florida\, His songs feature catchy tunes and lyrics and audience members can often be seen dancing and swaying and singing along. He is 1/2 of the duo “The Obstructionists”\, with David Hintz and can be seen playing shows in Lee County and beyond!\nhttps://www.reverbnation.com/rossjordan

SUMMARY:Evening in a Songwriter's Living Room.
DESCRIPTION:Evening in a Songwriter’s Living Room. \nLong time ACMA member David Martin\, now in New Mexico has but together a songwriters showcase that includes a few local friends with some intriguing musical backgrounds.  \nLink will be available 9-10 7 pm. https://youtu.be/1dHYThwWKnw \nACMA presents an Evening in a Songwriter’s Living Room. Tom Adler\, Michael R.J. Roth\, and David Martin will each perform their original material of acoustic Americana\, folk\, country\, and other styles.  \nTom\, David\, and Michael met over thirty years ago when all were involved with the “Sweet Inspiration” coffee house in downtown Santa Fe.  They got back in contact after Tom and David played a couple of gigs at local restaurants\, and David and Michael ran into each other at a songwriter’s circle in Santa Fe. \nTom was an adjunct faculty member at Santa Fe University of Art & Design teaching the acoustic Americana ensemble\, songwriting seminar and folk guitar and banjo.  His background includes many years and a wide range as a performing/recording musician and stage actor.   Tom played with the Fast Peso String Band\, toured as a singer/songwriter appearing in film and on television and radio.   Tom was currently a member of the folk/Americana band\, Bootleg Prophets.  Tom’s big secret that few people know is that he worked as a chimney sweep in the early eighties! Tom enjoys listening to music as much as performing it and loves to share folk music from the US and around the world (especially older recordings!) with his listeners Tom Adler has been a presence in the Santa Fe music scene for more than 50 years. Tom plays guitar and banjo with the Fast Peso String Band and his music has been in feature films and on NPR. He has 3 CD’s available.  https://www.amazon.com/Tom-Adler/e/B000APG8XS \nMichael R. J. Roth has lived most of his life in New Mexico. His well crafted lyrics and melodies have won several song contests. He has been called “a cool dark troubadour…a modern day poet not unlike Townes Van Zandt” and a “Jedi songwriter\,” evoking a mix of Leonard Cohen\, Gordon Lightfoot\, Johnny Cash\, Jason Isbell and others with lyrics known for their intriguing imagery and “deep\, profound truth.” Lori McKenna called him “Brilliant.” \nHe was the lyric winner of the 2019 NSAI Song Contest\, the Great American Song Contest\, and a Gold Award winner in the 2018 Mid-Atlantic Song Contest. He is featured in the Great American Song Hall of Fame\, and is known for his award-winning\, original acoustic songs with “the kind of lyrics that make Nashville writers salivate.” NSAI named him “One to Watch.” https://easyheroes.com/ \nDavid Martin started learning guitar in sixth grade\, and played his first gig at about 14\, a church wedding.  He got $50\, playing guitar behind a singer for 3 songs\, and realized this was easier than making burgers.  David played bass in several bands around Texas and New Mexico\, opening for Asleep at the Wheel\, Townes Van Zandt\, Alvin Crow and the Pleasant Valley Boys\, and playing six nights a week at steakhouses and theme restaurants.  David retired from his day job at Los Alamos National Laboratory\, and is writing and performing around Santa Fe.  David produced and wrote a couple of songs translated by ACMA member Maria Valsi into Portuguese which are available on SoundCloud and other streaming services.  David’s song “Say A Prayer For Me” was selected as best folk song of 2020 by the New Mexico Music Association.  His songs range from simple country to bossa nova. \n https://youtube.com/user/DesertSailor26

Butler went on to play in a number of bands and as a solo performer throughout high school\, college and later.\nHis songwriting has garnered prizes at the Kerrville (TX) New Folk competition\, the Will McLean Music Festival and the South Florida Folk Festival. One of Butler’s songs was included in the soundtrack of the 2013 feature film \, “Texas Chainsaw Massacre 3-D\,” starring absolutely no one you’d recognize.\nThese days Butler airs out his musical mojo alongside Susan Chastain\, erstwhile jazz chanteuse and current belter of ballads\, diva of ditties\, marquessa of melodies.\nVocalist Susan Chastain began performing at the age of 3\, atop her mother’s bar in Oklawaha\, Florida. Leaving the jukebox behind\, she grew up to be a jazz and big band singer for over 30 years\, and still is! She met singer/songwriter/guitarist John R. Butler and he convinced her to swing over to the dark side…old country\, old rock\, old blues\, old soul\, and his (not old) original compositions.

SUMMARY:Feed Florida - featuring Elizabeth Lockhart
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 Elizabeth Lockhart.\nElizabeth Lockhart was just six years old when her voice brought chills to audiences during solo performances as she delivered gospel music with a rich\, full vocal range. She was selected to open for Reba McEntire at age 12 and chose to study Opera Performance at North Carolina School of the Arts\, reaching the professional staus of opera singer.\nElizabeth spent most of her early career performing and teaching classical music\, theatre and art song literature. But it was when she found folk/roots music that she was inspired to develop her self-taught guitar and writing style. Reminiscent of 60’s folk revival women icons such as Joan Baez\, Judy Collins\, and Joanie Mitchell. Elizabeth Lockhart has the ability to tug at a listener’s heart strings through her haunting melodies\, stories and rich vocals.

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 benefit for the Harry Chapin Food Bank featuring 20 Strings
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 our own Kim Mayfield.\nThis week our featured act is 20 Strings. The quartet grew up in New England in the 1960’s\, and were fortunate enough to be at the epicenter of the great folk revival in the Boston-Cambridge area\, especially Harvard Square.\nFlorida singer/songwriter and friend\, Debbie Jamieson\, gave them the name ’20 Strings\,’ which happens to be the total number of strings on 2 guitars and a mandolin.\n20 Strings ply their craft all across Florida at festivals\, coffee houses\, and house concerts. Their performances include fresh interpretations of traditional Folk\, Old-time gospel\, Americana\, Western Swing\, Bluegrass\, as well as music from contemporary songwriters.\nIf you are able to help provide financial support\, there will be a link to donate under the video.
