Gary SmallwoodWe are stoked that Gary Smallwood is coming back to the Clear Brook stage! He’ll be performing on Sunday 6/29/14.

Gary Smallwood

His guitar playing, both electric and acoustic has been highly sought after by musicians as well as the public. He has loaned his talents to many bands as a ‘sideman’ and in the studio on numerous recording projects, including Genghis Angus’ “Twelve Days”, Bryan Fox’s “Unfoxable”, Josh Burgess Band’s “Living & Dying Under Orion” , Jim Asbell’s “Man Overbored”, Leesburg Community Church’s “Give Me Jesus”, Bret Michaels’ “Rock My World” and countless other demo recordings.

Gary Smallwood

Burnt Orange Band Rocks the BBQ Awards : STAR POWER

  • January 27, 2014
  • by Admin
  • · Announcements

burnt orange band press photoWe’re happy to have Larry and the boys from Burnt Orange Band rocking the BBQ awards this year on Saturday night both during, and after!  In other words, they will be electrifying the award ceremony. If you haven’t heard them, you can listen to them here.  In an unprecedented move, Larry and the boys feel it’s only right to rock the house  not only after the ceremony, but DURING.

In most cases, the competitors are tired, having been up cooking all night, but now with some Burnt Orange Band rifts, they may be able to stay awake during the ceremony and feel like a star walking on that stage.  Larry and the boys attitude it to being neighborly. After all, Culpepper is about 90 minutes away. In Virginia, that’s nothing.  “We’re going to make them feel like rock stars!”   Wow!  Star power!  By the way, like them on Facebook!

Michael Palmer 3rd Gear Headlining Friday Night

  • January 24, 2014
  • by Admin
  • · Announcements · Photographs

Michael Palmer : 3rd Gear Anyone who was reading the sidebar may have seen our joke that Elvis was coming on Friday, but instead we have local hero Michael Palmer.

I first heard of Michael Palmer while he was organizing a benefit concert in his area. (Found: The Journal ) It isn’t every day that a guy from West Virginia assembles a group of bikers who come in support of raising money to end child abuse. That’s what Michael does, the impossible.

Michael Palmer gives cutting edge high energy performances. He spends most his life giving back for the gift he has, often playing many charity or benefit concerts each year.   He’s well traveled, he’s sang on the Grand Old Opry stage, cut numerous demos in Nashville, had auditions on the Voice and America’s Got Talent, and opened for Todd Allen Herendeen.

He’s not yet thirty, but he’s been singing since five and bought his first guitar at age fifteen.  He’s a military veteran! He promotes Freedom Water, of which a portion of every bottles helps our Active duty soldiers, veterans, their families and their children!

When I asked why he’s chosen family time over fame, he said, “Growing up poor in rural Winchester, Virginia I remember the days we didn’t have food, the thing that kept me going was music.  I taught myself how to play Hawaii Five-0 by the Ventures and the rest was history. If God has given you a gift you use it, and that’s what I do. Even when I didn’t have a job, I entertained people with my music. Today, I live each day giving back when I can.”

I chose Michael to headline our Hogging Up BBQ Festival. I’m glad I did.He’s passionate about lots of things in life, his music and helping others is at the top of his list. Michael lives in Martinsburg, West Virginia with lovely wife and three children.

Michael Palmer

We can’t wait for his high energy performance on Friday night, June 27th,  he’ll be playing right after the BBQ tour.

Dangerous Mood Band From Winchester Wins Staff Pick for Hogging Up Festival

  • January 16, 2013
  • by Admin
  • · Photographs

Dangerous Mood

Band Bio: We are pleased to announce Dangerous Mood as our Staff Pick. This amazing young duo comprised of Trevor Davis (guitar and vocals) and Jordan McWhorter (vocals and keyboard) and they will win any crowd over. Both live in Winchester, Virginia and are in the process of recording their first CD. Their original music consists of a soulsy-blues folk all it’s own and for this festival Dangerous Mood will be also bringing some of their favorite Pasty Cline and Alison Kraus covers. You can see more about them on their website , or Facebook page! Tweet to them @Dangerous_Mood  Website

They have a sound that really infuses old school blues with the folk/indie sound that is popular today.

History:
Trevor and Jordan met in the summer of 2011 in Frederick,MD. They were original members of the band Strictly Debonaire. Members of the band went their separate ways but Trevor and Jordan’s love for music brought them to the ostensible live music capital: Austin, TX. They spent valuable time in Austin writing music and getting inspiration from the many musicians in this blues dominated industry that have started to define Austin’s music scene.

Dangerous Mood has also gigged in southwest Florida, gaining more exposure and overwhelming support from new fans and family. Their experience in Florida encouraged them to keep going and they are now in Winchester,VA. In a location that is just a few hours from Washington, D.C., NYC, and Philly, they hope to gain more fans and touch more lives with their music.Dangerous Mood will embark on their first full-length east coast tour in the Spring of 2013. Visit their YouTube channel to view some of their original and cover songs at Youtube.com/listenupaustin and also at dangerousmood.bandcamp.com. Like them on Facebook at facebook.com/DangerousMoodMusic

The staff says, “Jordan’s amazing vocals will blow you away. Here them here. This duo is going places. We are lucky to have them play at our festival. Once they sell out stadiums, we may not be so lucky.”
