2010 Spring Covered Bridge
Music Festival Postponed
The rough winter has caused flooding
and minor damage
at the covered bridge, the site of the festival.
Kevin & Joey have postponed the
festival until further notice
Covered Bridge Plays Delaware Veterans
Home in Milford De
On Sept 26th 2009 Joey & Kevin played the Delaware Veterans
home
on a beautiful Saturday morning. They invited
Dr. Eric Hale
to play banjo as they did the civil war set.
Apparently the
CD "New Musical Stories of the American Civil War' is
played at the home regularly.
"We felt very honored to play for the veterans" said Kevin.
"It was a nice day and they seemed to enjoy the music".
The event had a car show also which added to
the festivities.
Covered Bridge hopes to entertain the veterans
again in the future.
Covered Bridge dodges the rain and improvises at Chautauqua Event 2009.
Kevin and Joey began their concert at
the Lewes Hsitorical Society's annual
Chautauqua event at 6pm.
By 6:15 mother natures wrath of thunderstorms
brought the crowd and the musicians inside.
After deciding that waiting out the storm
was not an option, the concert continued upstairs
inside the Zwaanendael museum for a packed house.
With banjo help from their quest musician
Dr. Eric Hale, Kevin and Joey finished the concert
just like the old days, basic instruments in front
a crowd inside a small room.
"just like it was done back in the 1800's, said Joey
to the crowd. Interestingly the upstairs room
in the museum had good acoustics and the
music resonated well off the old walls. After finishing
the concert upstairs the event coordinator informed
Kevin that about 15 people could not get upsatirs
because it was over crowded and wanted to know if
Covered Bridge could play for them. In a show of pure minstrel spirit,
Covered Bridge gave an improvised concert to
this small group capped off by a fun rendition
of Chubby Checker's "The Twist", led by Joey.
By all accounts it was a fun night, even if mother
nature tried to put a damper on it.
Great Time had by all at the annual Covered Bridge spring concert 2009
Over 80 people joined Kevin and Joey inside the
covered bridge for a music show to benefit
the Food Pantry. The event collected over $1400 of
canned goods to help with the homeless and needy.
The concert opened with Kyle Offidani doing amazing
fingerstyle guitar. Kyle is a 22 year old up and
coming guitarist
with amazing talent. I know we will be seeing him play
around the region a lot over the next couple of years.
Kyle's goal is to be a full time performing artist.
Kevin & Joey followed and gave the audience 2 hours
of music from both their albums, with an added
feature of video. By all accounts everyone had a great time.
Thanks to all who came out and brought canned goods.
Civil War album still gaining momentum:
ITunes reported over 500 downloads of the music
from "New Musical Stories of the American Civil War" as of June 2010.
