STORIES BEHIND THE SONGS

Music fans will gather to hear a trio of songwriters playing in-the-round in between sharing stories and describing their process.

 

Ishmael Katz

Ishmael Katz is a singer-songwriter whose music has been featured on NPR’s All Things Considered and on national television and radio in Canada. He’s been writing songs since he was 17 — which, as he’ll tell you, was a very long time ago. Ishmael occupies a niche all his own, blending humor and Eastern mysticism into ragtime- and blues-inspired tunes. Some people think he’s funny. He’s one of them.

Elaine Bolton

Some folks may wonder, “What is that SOUND over yonder?”, and that’s when I just smile and tell them… It’s a little Rockabilly, some Blues, some Funk, but really– Love songs, broken, some mended, Wild rides that soon ended; Songs of hope and healing, Perhaps too intense, and revealing… But through it all I’m just really– Another human being.❤️

 Originally from Pocatello, Idaho, Carey Chaney played his first gig at the age of fifteen. In the years that followed, according to the Venice, Florida Herald Tribune, Chaney performed in “such diverse places as Leavonworth Women’s Prison, the Troubadour in Los Angeles, and Napa State Hospital in Northern California.” Since moving to Florida in 2001, Carey Chaney has been a musical guest on WSLR Community Radio in Sarasota, and has played at Fogartyville Music and Arts Center. A good place to hear Carey’s music is on Reverbnation.com.
