SUMMARY:Woji and Kozloff in concert. Bob Williams opens
DESCRIPTION:The ACMA is proud to welcome back Hank Woji and Eileen Kozloff to our stage. The duo has performed regularly at festivals\, concert venues\, coffee houses and house concerts throughout the country combining their stellar individual skills into a duo that showcases the best of their talents into a seamless collaborative musical team. \nAbout Hank Woji\nA self described “Jersey Shore Ex-Pat turned West Texas Desert Rat”\, for over 20 years\, as a bassist\, Hank Woji played in some of The Garden State’s most dynamic and innovative bands\, performing in clubs and concert halls from Virginia to Ontario\, in styles ranging from Blues and R&B to Reggae and Rock & Roll to County Rock and Afrobeat! \nIn the Spring of 2001 Hank moved to Houston\, TX\, fell in with a bunch of great Texas songwriters\, picked up his acoustic guitar\, and found a new musical voice as a Singer Songwriter. But destiny turned a page and it was his chance move\, in 2009\, to the far West Texas desert town of Terlingua that has most reshaped his life and his music. \nCritics have described Hank’s music as “acoustic-wielding\, sharply observed\, Americana all the way” and being “in the best tradition of the Texas troubadours like Guy Clarke\, Townes Van Zandt and Butch Hancock” and that “His troubadour style also comes very close to the style of Woody Guthrie or Pete Seeger\, or as we heard on ‘Nebraska’ from Bruce Springsteen.” \nHank has released five self produced CDs: Medallion 2005; American Dreams 2008; There Was A Time 2010; Holy Ghost Town 2013; and The Working Life 2014. He has also just produced\, Just Words\, the new CD by Florida based singer songwriter Eileen Kozloff\, in 2017 \nOver the last 35 years Woji\, and his bands\, have shared the stage with\, such diverse artists as: Jonathan Byrd\, David Massengill\, Amy Speace\, Ray Bonneville\, The Radiators\, Jimmy Cliff\, Hot Tuna\, Shake Russell\, Dana Cooper\, Darden Smith\, Sara Hickman\, Annie Gallup\, Annie Wenz\, Emma’s Revolution\, The Flying A’s\, David Rovics\, Greg Klyma\, Bonnie Whitmore\, Colin Gilmore\, Ronnie Elliott\, Spook Handy\, Rebekah Pulley\, Room Full of Blues\, Johnny Winter\, Clarence Clemons\, Garry Tallent\, John Hammond Jr.\, The Nighthawks\, Bob Livingston\, Grant Peeples\, Spook Handy\, Jeff Talmadge\, Butch Hancock\, Jimmie Dale Gilmore\, Kinky Friedman\, Bruce Springsteen\, David Amram and Pete Seeger. \nHank is a proud member of AFM Local 1000 and tours nationally\, performing regularly at festivals\, coffeehouses\, theaters\, clubs and house concerts as a solo singer songwriter\, with his duo partner Eileen Kozloff as Woji & Kozloff\, and with his full band The Hank Woji Conspiracy. \nwww.hankwoji.com \nAbout Eileen Kozloff:\nAn award winning artist\, for her singing\, songwriting and instrumental work\, Eileen Kozloff is a multi-instrumentalist who has been actively involved in the autoharp world for over a quarter of a century. She is best known for her unique “pick-less” style of diatonic autoharp and for her soaring vocals\, stunning harmonies and commanding performances. Her ability to compose\, play and sing in a wide range of genres has made her a versatile festival performer and workshop teacher. \nHer extensive repertoire is a rich mix of Old Time chestnuts\, Carter Family songs and her original compositions\, which stylistically run the gamut from country\, blues and folk to jazz and even rock and roll! The Old Time Herald calls her singing approach “emotive\, clear and controlled\, reminiscent of the best of the revivalists\, such as Joan Baez or Anne Hills”\, and her performances ‘heartfelt\, with ravishing\, wide ranging vocals.” \nEileen’s recordings have garnered stellar reviews and her discography includes two critically acclaimed CDs with her former band\, Well Tempered String Band\, as well as\, two solo projects; “Solitary Rider” and “Hearts and Souls Entwined”. She is currently at work on her 3rd solo CD which is scheduled for release in early 2017. \nwww.eileenkozloff.com \nACMA board member and vice president Bob Williams opens the show. Bob has been a songwriter and musician most of his life. He discovered the joy of performing his own music at open mics and from then on\, in his own words\, “he was set free”. After joining the ACMA he rapidly became further involved in supporting local musicians by organizing ACMA events such as Songwriters at Sunset at Lover’s key\, in conjunction with FOLKS\, Songwriters at the South Regional Library and involving the ACMA with the Island Hopper Festival He also landed a regular “gig” at a local watering hole. He’s found time to produce a CD of his orginal music and is working on a second.

SUMMARY:Danika Holmes and Jeb Stuart in concert Scott Lee Dozier opens
DESCRIPTION:Don’t let the optimistic take on life in Danika’s music fool you into thinking she’s never endured hardship. She has… and plenty of it. She just chose to focus the message of her music on overcoming challenges and getting through life’s hardest moments in one piece\, and being better for it. Danika believes music has the ability to heal. But that’s not all. A well written song and performance can lead you to sing along\, to laugh\, or to bop your head and groove with the beat. That’s what you can expect from a Danika Holmes show… not just songs\, but an experience to remember. \nIn 2010\, Danika joined forces with guitarist Jeb Hart\, a phenomenal player who’s not afraid of shredding on an acoustic guitar. Jeb’s clean and sophisticated style of playing along with Danika’s smooth\, soulful vocals has created their own unique blend of acoustic pop. Fans come to Danika shows expecting to hear Jeb Hart on guitar the same way they know they’re going to get Slash at a Guns N’ Roses concert. \nWhile the music is positive and encouraging\, an occasional song veers to the dark side\, addressing heartbreak and death\, in particular the loss of Danika’s dad to cancer\, while showing a very real and genuine side to the singer-songwriter. “Balance Vol. 1” (2014) is the Nashville duo’s most recent release and was generously fan funded through kickstarter\, as was their most recent full band release “Living Your Dream.” (2010) Danika grew up as one of five kids on the Mississippi River in a little piece of heaven known as “Iowa.” \nJeb Hart is the creator of Six Month Guitar. \nJeb started playing music at age 9\, starting with saxophone and then later adding guitar\, bass\, and drums. Throughout the years he has learned many more. In his college days he spent many hours in the studio writing and recording songs. \nJeb also filled in with hundreds of bands including blues\, rock\, metal\, country\, and even a 2 1/2 year stint with a big band. He has taught for 16 years\, and has decided to perform full time with Danika Holmes. Jeb stated\, “It’s taken a long time to find a band that was worth pulling away from teaching for. I’m excited to see where we go in the next few years.” \nACMA member Scott Lee Dozier opens the show! \n  \nwww.danikaholmes.com

SUMMARY:Grant Peeples in concert with ACMA members Peg and Emery Williams Opening

Our founding ACMA member Joe Virga opens.\nA self-described “tree-hugger that watches NASCAR\, and Buddhist with a gun below the seat\,” Grant Peeples is known for his axe-sharp socio-political tunes\, raucous humor and heart-gigging ballads. \nIn 2014 he was the recipient of the Focus Foundation Award for Creative Excellence\, which cited the “humor\, compassion and wisdom of his songs\,” as well as their “unflinching social insight and cultural acuity.” He was a 2016 Finalist in the prestigious New Folk Songwriters Showcase\, sponsored by Kerrville Folk Festival. \nThird Coast Magazine’s John Conquest says “Peeples is unusually literate\, unusually honest.

SUMMARY:Bob Sima returns to the ACMA. Glenn Sabatka opens!
DESCRIPTION:Sima is a dynamic singer-songwriter\, performer\, storyteller\, speaker\, servant of humanity\, workshop and retreat leader\, meditation and breathwork facilitator\, and creative collaborator — often weaving all of these elements into a single performance. He is a nationally touring artist performing at festivals\, concert halls\, yoga studios\, wellness centers\, and spiritual centers to share his message and music. His soul-stirring performances straddle the worlds of folk\, kirtan\, soul\, and gospel as he navigates audiences deeply on a journey\, both individually and as a collective. Flowing with the unique energy at each event and rarely making a set-list\, he is a master at going from foot-stomp to pin-drop. He guides audiences into a space for things – epiphanies\, light bulbs coming on\, shifts – to happen. His performances invite a visceral embodiment of the music and message in a wide-open space of possibilities. \nBob is channeling some of the long forgotten troubadours. ~Musica Del Rio Concerts \nSima’s mission for his music: “I come with a crystal clear divine purpose. With utmost and sacred devotion\, I encapsulate – in song – my interpretations of the ancient\, timeless wisdom of the ascended masters and of the contemporary teachers I meet in this life. Each and every song I birth begins as my personal conversation with Source\, delivered as life lessons of spiritual growth\, transformation\, and expansion of consciousness. I share this gift to soften the hardest of hearts\, widen the narrowest of smiles\, loosen the tightest of grips\, lighten the heaviest of loads\, and thin the thickest of walls of as many souls as I can possibly reach. All for the greater purpose of lifting as much light and consciousness into this world at this time in human evolution when it is so called to be done.” \nACMA member Glenn Sabatka opens the show. Glenn brings a unique touch to his guitar/harmonica/humorous but touching songs that give us a glimpse into his being..

SUMMARY:Ellen Bukstel\,   Bill Veach Opens
DESCRIPTION:From Menopause to Marijuana! …Peace to Politics! …Poignant to Provocative! …Ellen Bukstel writes and sings about it all! This type of happy-sad\, life embracing\, fear-overcoming emotional schizophrenia truly captures the spirit of modern independent music making—whatever the artist feels in that moment\, she shares…and whatever else Ellen is\, she’s not shy about it making her audience “sit up and think…laugh til they cry…and sometimes all at the same time!” \nA veteran to the stage since childhood\, she has been honored with close to 50 Songwriting and Music Video awards and acknowledgments since 2002 by such notable competitions such as John Lennon\, Paul Stookey’s Music To life\, New Zealand Int’l Peace Song\, Breaking the Silence in Song\, Kerrville NewFolk\, just to name a few. And\, her songs are making a huge difference in people’s lives. \nRenowned as an activist who puts her passions to song\, Ellen has been commissioned to write songs and produced numerous multiple award winning fundraising music videos which have collectively helped to raise almost one hundred million dollars since 2006 and are being used as tools to raise awareness of important social issues such as Housing the Homeless\, Assistance Victims of Domestic Violence\, Human Rights and care for Children with wide spectrum Autism and Elderly with Cerebral Deterioration. \nHer songwriting journey began after losing her husband Doug Segal to AIDS in 1988. Doug was a hemophiliac who contacted HIV from his blood products and died at age 36 leaving Ellen with their three children Brett\, Todd and Margo. Doug and Ellen spoke out publicly hundred of times sharing their personal story in schools\, churches\, synagogues\, educating the community about AIDS.They also spoke to the “Presidents Commission on AIDS” when they came to her home town city\, Miami\, FL. Ellen was honored as a Torch Runner for the 1996 Olympics for her service to the community. \nEllen expresses her imagination with her beautiful voice\, guitar and keyboard. Her award winning songs chronicle the joys and sorrows of a colorful tapestry still being woven…She conveys love and a depth of concern for the ever-increasing threats to our world and to our own individual rights. All this is related to the audience through a brave\, though humorous and earthy connection between the world of musical performance and that of the social “bard” or “troubadour” from which the most powerful and relevant strand of folk music derives it’s roots. It’s not an act. It’s real. \nEllen’s awards are too numerous to list but check out this impressive list at: http://ellenbukstel.com/awards-recognition/ \nACMA member Bill Veach opens the show!

SUMMARY:Nate Currin
DESCRIPTION:Nate Currin is an artist and a storyteller. Having traveled to over 20 countries\, toured with notable acts like Blues Traveler and Neon Trees\, been featured on MTV and received a first ballot Grammy nomination\, he retains his enigmatic drive to fly under the radar from time to time. It’s when watching him play an intimate coffeehouse gig that he’s tucked into a headlining U.S. tour that it clicks; Currin is chasing after the genuine human connection\, one fan and one song at a time. Nate Currin now prepares to release a project over five years in the making that is unlike anything he’s ever put out\, and far from most albums on the singer/songwriter\, folk and pop rock charts. On August 6th\, 2013 Currin released an 18-song concept album titled The Pilgrim\, his sophomore full length on Archaic Cannon Records. The Pilgrim breaks the rules of genre confinement for the simple sake of brilliant art.

SUMMARY:Rebecca Folsum
DESCRIPTION:Rebecca Folsom’s music is about liberation. Her songs crack open hearts\, inspire hope\, and leave listeners with a deeper perspective. Rebecca’s world-class voice traverses a near-four-octave range. KUNC radio describes it as “knock-you-to-your-knees.” The Daily Camera describes her music as “shining…with lush harmonies\,” and Westword Magazine says\, “Her songs hit like little earthquakes!” \nWhile her range is impressive\, it’s the expression in her voice that rivets your attention and stays with you long after the show ends. Rebecca’s voice pours forth from lilting tenderness to fully liberated\, unbridled release. She brings both a pure vocal quality reminiscent of old Appalachia and a blues prowess.
