Posted by: John_Hamilton on 07/22/2012 07:23 PM
Murphys, CA...The Ironstone Amptheater worked it's magic last night as a close to capacity crowd made their way out to Ironstone Vineyards. They came to see one of the biggest female acts of all time in Reba McEntire and fast rising California country band Whiskey Dawn that said this may be their last California show for a stretch as they are leaving to make their way to Nashville to take another step or two on their path to Country Music stardom. If the crowd reactions were any indications then their success is already a foregone conclusion. Reba put on a great show playing from a huge library of chart topping new hits and some classic songs of country music's past. She is the consummate professional as she started off by mentioning Murphys and how she would have liked to have gone to Murphys Homecoming earlier in the day. This typified what the awaiting crowd would witness, Reba is a professional at the top of her game. Warm, engaging, prepared and dedicated to giving her guests what they came to hear...

Posted by: John_Hamilton on 07/20/2012 10:42 AM
Vallecito, CA...Uncle Bonsai performs original, contemporary folk/pop music. With their soaring and intricate 3-part vocal harmonies and biting humor, accompanied by only an acoustic guitar, Arni Adler, Patrice O'Neill, and Andrew Ratshin deliver poignantly unflinching portrayals of life, love, and a guy named Doug. The trio's influences range from the Beatles to Stephen Sondheim. Some say Zappa cross-bred with Peter, Paul and Mary. Loudon Wainwright III, the Roches. Three tightly tiered and adhered voices, acoustic guitar. That's it. Nearly naked folk-pop for everyone....
