An Acoustic Evening Of Song.
Some of our favorite singers and songwriters are coming together for an
intimate evening of sharing songs. Proceeds are to help with ongoing medical
expenses for local director/filmmaker, Marty Collins. Serving as Master
of Ceremonies will be Mitch Sakolsky. Marty Collins has over 39 years of
cinematography experience in all media formats, including 35mm, 16mm, HD, DV,
Beta, and as a steadicam operator. Some of his theatrical Cinematographer
credits include The Dead Pit (1989), Still Waters Burn (1996),
and Blur (2007 post-production) and Proramming the Nation. He is
also credited as steadicam operator on Men at Work, and as second unit
photographer on Stephen King's The Lawnmower. Marty Collins
directed and produced the PBS documentary Girls from Santa Cruz to help
Lacy J Dalton raise money to save the wild horses of Story County, and
now Lacy returns to help her friend Marty Collins in his time of need. Please
join us in helping this generous community minded man as he uses every resource
he has to return to health and the life he loves.

Trained as a classical
violinist, Michael Mullen has spent the last few decades immersing
himself in the idioms of fiddling particular to Scottish and Irish music. While
he can tear it up with the best of them, as in his work with the well-known
Californian Celtic bands, Tempest (11 CDs), the Wicked Tinkers,
and others, he can also deliver as an enthralling interpreter of Celtic music
that will send a shiver down the spine. As a solo performer he employs
technology to accompany himself, using a looper to build, live, guitar and
vocal accompaniment to his lead violin playing and singing. Hence his
description, Trio of One.

The complete singer-songwriter and musician. Dirk Hamilton is veteran of 17 albums since the 70's (some on major labels). Definitely not to be pigeon-holed! Dirk regularly plays Europe (where he lives half the time) with the four-piece Dirk Hamilton Band (Don Evans - lead guitar, Eric Westphal - bass, Tim Seifert - drums), where he also fronts The Bluesmen, a crack Italian group from Ferrara. The rest of the time he lives somewhere in the US. He is a strong solo performer and in more intimate settings the wit and humanity of his music shine through in a way that only a solo performance can convey. Dirk played for us a couple of years ago and we are excited to get him back to the Mug. Since that visit he has added 2 further CD;s to his extensive discography (18 in all!), Thug of Love and Solo mono. The latter is his first ever true solo studio recording. www.dirkhamilton.com |
