DETAILS :

Saturday, January 26th -  Songwriter Workshop (5-7pm) and Concert (7:30pm) by David
Russell

David Russell has written award-winning songs, and has collaborated and

performed with regional and national songwriters, performers and producers

(Gamble Rogers, Steve Goodman, Steve Young, John Pennell, Don Oja-Dunaway,

Charlie Robertson, Hershey Reeves, Jim Connor and Dave Durham/HankCochran, just

to name a few ). David's songwriting heroes are writers like Mac MacAnally (who

years ago traded songs with David), John Hartford, Jimmy Webb and the great Hoagy

Carmichael. The crafts of songwriting and performing are in his blood, coming from
a

musical family heritage harkening from Nova Scotia and Cape Breton Island.

Blues, Bluegrass, Folk, these are just a few of the genres that David's songs find
roots in.

His  songwriting intelligence is matched by his great wit and charm - you  will
be inspired and motivated to push your songwriting to the next  level!

As  a performer, David always delights with a well rounded repertoire and  storytelling
that draws the listener in to an intimate experience beyond  your average cafe concert.

The Songwriter Workshop. Join David and hone your writing. (5:00-7:00 pm)

David  will present examples of his and his friend's successful songs in  different
genres- from jingles to art songs. An introduction to the  songwriting process,

the workshop will cover: 1) song structure, 2.) lyric writing 3.)tonal tension and
structure 4) songwriting methods of the pros.

Workshop  includes a syllabus and song worksheets to take home. The workshop will
be held in a relaxed setting (the beautiful Stonefield Cellars Barrel  Room) with
an emphasis on the creative process. The intent is for  fledgling writers to take
away fresh ideas and a spark for their work.  This is a 2 hour workshop, in the
round, and is an acoustic-only event--  attendees are encouraged to bring their
acoustic instruments and their  songs.

David In Concert  (7:30 pm)

Following the workshop, David Russell will perform in concert,  including many of
the songs discussed in the workshop.    David Russell  Website: www.davidrussellandcedarblue.com
