The Band

Cal and I are lucky enough to play together but even luckier to have Dave and Stephanie join us when The Linfords need to become The Linford Band. Together we play dances and bigger venues and have been contacted to play the Laramie Civic Center next May. We're pretty excited about it.

Fair Times

We had great fun at the Teton County Fair in Jackson and the South Bannock in Downy. As always there were a few weather issues, but we made it through the storms :-) We talked to some great people, and I only wish there was more time to chat and that I had a better memory for names. Anyway, we love what we do, and appreciate the chance to sing for the Fair Crowds. It's all about family and fun and we are a perfect fit.

Coming up we have a last minute gig Sunday for the Oregon Trail Historical get together. A private party the 12th and a campfire sing along in the Bondaraunt wilderness. You just never know where the music will take you.

Teton County Fair

We're geared up and ready to play this weekend at the Teton County Fair in Jackson Hole Wyoming. It's just a few miles up the road so we're really excited to play 'local' this year. We hope you'll come out and enjoy the fair and see us under the tent.

Thurs. 11:00, 3:30 and 6:45

Fri. 11:00, 4:30 and 7:00

Sat. 1:30, 4:45 and 7:15

All our shows are FREE! Yahoo! So get some fair food and enjoy the free entertainment.

Star Valley Ranch Dance

We had a great time at the Star Valley Ranch Dance. I posted a video clip of one of our last songs of the night. Enjoy!

Summer Concert Series

Up-Dates

It's been a while since I've updated our schedule, so here is how it's looking for 2011 so far.
Tomorrow, March 18th we'll be at the senior center at 12:15 and at the Freedom Ward Social in the evening.

Coming up in April we have a private party at the MADDOX in Brigham City, Utah. If you need some entertainment on the 5th or 6th and are in Utah we have some time available, so give us a shout.

We're planning to be a part of the Star Valley Arts Council Concert Series this June. We are excited to see a venue like this open up in our neck of the woods. It's such a great thing and we hope it becomes a Star Valley Tradition. We'll also pray for no snow in June :-) Dates are not set yet for this one . . . more info. to come.

We'll be playing Star Valley Ranch again in July the weekend of the 24th and then will be up at the Teton County Fair in Jackson Hole the 28th-30th. Both Cal and I have been a part of the Entertainment at the fair, but it's been over a decade ago and we've never played there together, so we are really excited about it.

We hope you'll come out and see us live, we have our new CD for sale and one of my favorite things is meeting the people who have similiar taste in music.

Forty Below in Wyoming

Well, it literally IS forty below in Wyoming. Okay, thirty six below, but really, who wants to split that hair. I feel like I just got home from Caroling in Sun Valley, Cal and I had a few private gigs and now I'm headed back to Sun Valley for Valentines Day. I'll be singing in the the dining room again this year and I'm hoping to drag my reluctant snowed in parents with me. :-)

Meanwhile, we're singing and playing like usual. We are both teaching guitar; Cal with WWCC and I have some beginning students. It's been really fun to teach again, I feel I have more to offer now with the experience I have had in the recent past. I remember with my first student I was still in high school and felt I didn't know enough to teach. We got through the basics together though and it was a great start to something I love.

We have some more private shows coming up in the near future . . . . don't forget to check in with Thunderbolt Radio and offer your support there. You can also take a listen on CDbaby. The new album has been very well received. Thanks for listening.

We Sang, They Came, They Danced

I am pretty excited about the fact that I have figured out how to post video on our blog. Yipee. That being said, this is just a little video we took at our gig at the Hayloft here in Afton. These were the cutest dancers ever!

Upcoming Shows Nov. and Dec.

Tomorrow Teddy will be singing at the Afton Senior Center, by herself! I know, scarey ;-) It will be interesting to sit down with my guitar and play these songs I've been doing with Cal or the Band all by my lonesome. You can catch me there at 12:00pm.

Thanksgiving weekend Cal and I will be playing at the Hayloft, so pry your bellies off the couch and come in, take a load off and listen to something besides a ball game or fighting siblings (not that we know anything about that ;-) Seriously, live music is an important part of our society and rural culture and people in this Valley are doing a great job of supporting the arts so we hope you'll take advantage of it.

Speaking of live music. This picture captures such a funny moment at RMAF. This is John Dunnigan, musician extrodinaire at the end of a very long jam. He is so gracious to play with singers and pickers of every level and Eric, who is his own one man band sat in to play an original song or two. Into the song he needed some audience participation and he turned to John and demanded John to Yodel. We found it so funny that I about fell off my chair, and Eric continued to coerce John into Yodeling on demand when the song required. . . . . way to go above and beyond John :-) Talking to John later he asked "So Cal, does your sister drink?" and it's all thanks to Eric and his one man band :-) Who needs alcohol when you have comic relief like this?
