It was a gorgeous day today for a singalong at Little Stacy Park and the crew was out. I played the 12-string Taylor. Our special guest Mo Pair, sang a song, lead a hymn and a song on the drum in the middle of our singalong set.
Here are recordings of us singing Stevie Wonder’s “A Place In The Sun,” Mo leading a Ponca hymn and his song on the drum.
Paige’s boys were the best, clapping along from the front row:
Kevin Gant was our featured guest at Sundaysong Singalong for April, 2015. He played his song “Look and Sense of Claire,” explaining its significance as his mom’s favorite song.
Our next singalong is Easter morning, April 5th at Little Stacy Park, Austin, TX. Join us! Our special guest will be Kevin Gant.
It was just too cold and wet to sing in the park last Sunday, so we gathered by the fire at my place and had a good time. Gray played uke, Doug played guitar and cajon and shared Sweet Baby Jane as his sacred song. It was a pleasure to have my mom join us and she loved reading over all the great lyrics like those of Mr. Tambourine Man.
We debuted a new songbook with two new Stevie Wonder songs and one by George Harrison. Here is a clip of one of the Stevie songs, Heaven Help Us All, followed by George’s Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth) and perennial favorite Tomorrow Never Knows:
