Dan Stevens "Ramblin" Dan Stevens performs an eclectic mix of traditional fingerstyle blues, popular songs and originals and has entertained audiences throughout the US, Germany, UK, Canada and Virgin Islands. Of special interest is his unique style of "bottleneck" slide playing popularized by early Mississippi delta bluesmen including his use of a homemade, three stringed "Cigar Box Guitar" and one stringed "Diddly Bow", both primitive blues instruments. As a finalist in the International Blues Challenge '08 on Beale St. in Memphis TN and protege of the legendary Dave Van Ronk, Dan has been lauded for his ability as a raconteur and for the authenticity of his approach gained by many years on the road as a traveling blues musician.in New York City Subway System in locations such as Times Square and Grand Central Terminal. www.danstevens.net
Singer-Songwriter Laura Sumner was born fittingly, in the Summer of Love, to parents with strong southern roots in Georgia. By the time she was 9 years old she had already moved from Florida, to New Jersey, Connecticut and California, finally settling back on the East Coast. Sumner now resides in the Hudson Valley, NY on land with a garden and a flock of chickens. Her musical influences spring from the proverbial well of 60’s and 70’s classic songwriters, naming Joni Mitchell as one of her greatest influences as well as The Beatles, Carly Simon, Neil Diamond & Neil Young. Sumner’s recent EP, Red Clay Blue Sky, released in June of ‘22 has been met with critical acclaim.
“If you weren’t sure about her authenticity as a player… what she does behind the microphone is so stunningly intriguing that it’s bound to make a believer out of you, if not someone who would go out of their way to see her perform live on the next possible occasion.” - Melody Maker
