SUMMARY:Sofia Talvik in concert! Dan Philgreen opens
DESCRIPTION:The ACMA is proud to start off May concerts with the talent of Sofia Talvik!\nFee donation at the door:\n$12/Members $18/Non Members\nMeet Sofia:\nSofia Talvik is a rare artist and an avid storyteller with a voice comparable to giants like Joni Mitchell\, or as the Folk/Americana Magazine NoDepression said it ”A singer/songwriter who is able to evoke the essence of Laurel Canyon circa the ‘60s as expressed in the work of Joni Mitchell\, Judy Collins\, Buffy Sainte-Marie and others who were able to paint beautiful tapestries from words and music.”.\nPrepare yourself for an unique and intimate evening\, not unlike the 70’s coffeehouses and speakeasy’s. You will be up close and personal with a world class act that has played big festivals like Lollapalooza and SxSW and opened for artists like Maria McKee and David Duchovny (X-files\, Californication). It is in this kind of setting where she can casually joke and communicate with the audience that her strength as a performer shines the most.\nHer delicate songs are performed in an intimate way\, showing off Sofia’s angelic voice enhanced only by a tasteful mix of harmonies and delays\, accompanied by the steady picking of her acoustic guitar and the rhythm section consisting of her own two feet\, bells and a stomp box.\nSofia has toured through 47 U.S states\, many of the countries in Europe and far away places like New Zealand.\nTalvik’s 8th studio album “Paws Of a Bear” was released September 2019. The album is reflecting inwards instead of to her surroundings\, exploring thoughts about identity and home. The single “Take Me Home” has been charting on Folk and Americana radio charts in the U.S and Europe.\nsofiatalvik.com\nACMA member/singer songwriter\, Dan Philgreen will open the show. Dan is an acoustic guitar player with a folksy sound. He has a treasure trove of originals and might do a cover for us to sing along!\nThe ACMA follows the Covid-19 protocols of our host venue.

SUMMARY:Jaime Michaels in Concert.   Bill Veach Opens
DESCRIPTION:The ACMA is happy to welcome back (after a long absence) New Mexico based Jaime Michals!\nDoor donation $12 members/$18 general public.\n“… truly inspiring … a vital\, alive\, creative\nartist 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.\nwww.jaimemichaels.com
