I sit here on Solstice night,…..thinking about the celebrations that are going around all around the world..at this very moment…from the smallest, personal rituals to great bonfires blazing with light and voices ringing out in song…and how humanity has taken this moment to pause and reflect, acknowledge and honor ourselves and this world we share, ..for so many thousands of years. I love feeling, and being a part of that chain of life. Blessings of the season to you all!!
And as I am contemplating all of this, in comes this link from fellow singer/songwriter Dan Berggren….a wonderful and celebrated poem, and the lyrics Michael and I put together a number of year ago. Synchronicity

Mid December morning…….really, it WAS just …a week?? at most a week and a half ago…that I was busy trying to finish the outside chores and get the yard ready for Winter… temperature nearly in the 60s……and now…..here it is, and thoughts are turning to seed catalogs already….hard to resist those pictures…of the plants…and the weather!

What a fun year we have had!! So rewarding! A new CD…a bundle of shows with Peter Yarrow….our first shows ever in Georgia and South Carolina….opening AND closing the Flint Folk Festival…with my Mom and sister in attendance , and further connecting with my Lithuanian roots….and so much more. I know I say it a lot, but it can never be said enough: we thank all of YOU for making this career of ours possible.

We have an exciting 2014 lined up already, and we hope that our cross paths with you somewhere in there, and we get to share some conversation, stories, and music. We wish you the best, here at the end of the year. David…and Michael

Looking ahead to a busy and fun 2014. Thank you all for your ongoing support!  Best of the season to you all, and we hope to see you soon.
