March 2012 Newsletter

Click Here for Video of our "Evangeline" from our Grand Annex Show in December
"Evangeline" is Ernest Troost's song about mistaken identity, crime and heartbreak.

Hey Y'all!  (I've been to Tennessee and I'm talking like a native again!)

February was an amazing month for the Hiloneome Band as we joyfully toured Northern California and shared some awesome shows with Houston Jones, Joe Craven and the Kathy Kallick band. We also traveled to Memphis to the International Folk Alliance and enjoyed our time there immensely.

March finds us traveling just a bit at the beginning of the month and then we slow down a bit and start working on our new album project here at home.  Show details are below!

As I wrote last month, thanks to our friend Pattie Van Over on the camera and our own Mark Indictor as editor, we have five brand new videos posted from our show in December at the Grand Annex with Fur Dixon and Steve Werner. One of them is above ~ see them all, including our awesome finale with Fur and Steve on Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land" on Our YouTube Channel. Thanks to Kim Grant of KG Music Press, find a great group sing video from that show posted on No Depression's Los Angeles Page

And speaking of No Depression, our friend Carl Gage did a great review of our last release "Live At The Freight & Salvage" there last fall:  Read our CD Review on No Depression by Carl Gage

Stay tuned for more good news! Please visit our website, drop us a line on Facebook, and plan to join us at a show.

Below are some incredible photos from our show at the Freight & Salvage last month from the amazing Mike Melnyk.

Blessings and Love from all of us in the Hilonesome Band...Steve Rankin, Mark Indictor, Fred Sanders and Rob Carlson...

"Evangeline" is Ernest Troost's song about mistaken identity, crime and heartbreak.

Hey Friends!

February finds the band traveling a lot, running to and fro! We've spent the last month developing our show for the tours coming up and we're excited to be polishing our current work while working on some great new songs from Rob Carlson, Ernest Troost and Tom Waits.

Our first show of the new year is here in town with our good friend Ernest Troost at his “Juke Joint Gang” songwriter’s show at the Talking Stick in Venice. We then hightail it out of town to join the great band Houston Jones at the lovely Palms Playhouse in Winters, California (with a special surprise guest!). We toodle on down the road later that weekend to join the San Francisco Bluegrass and Old Time Festival (http://www.sfbluegrass.org/) for their first weekend of what looks like a great line up this year. Concerts at Studio 55 Marin and The Freight and Salvage are our part of this festival of concerts over a 10 day period throughout San Francisco area. We share the stage with some remarkable musicians for those shows, including the wonderful Kathy Kallick band at the Freight & Salvage. AND, excitingly, our show at the Freight will be streamed live over a webcast to anyone who would like to sign on! Wherever you are in the world, you can tune in! Purchase online tickets for $3 any time the day of the show at www.concertwindow.com/thefreight. The show will not be taped, but you can watch it live in HD. Payment can be made using PayPal or a credit/debit cards.

We're excited also to be attending the International Folk Alliance Conference in Memphis this month where we showcase with some of the greatest in the business. Check out the Folk Alliance at http://www.folk.org/.

Happy New Year From the Hilonesome Band

"It is the time so well we love,
The time of all the year;
When winter calls with chilling breath,
For fireside and good cheer."

From Jean Ritchie's Winter Grace

See Our New Video "MillWorker" on YouTube

Happy New Year!

Wow, isn't it weird to write "2012" and have it actually be a number of a year that we're living in? Having been raised in the '60s and '70s (I'm dating myself here) this kind of over the 2000 mark year is a little unbelievable!

But here we are! The Los Angeles weather has been spring-like and even though the days are short and the sun is low in the sky, we've been enjoying the early winter blue skies. We've also revved up the machine once again from our holiday hiatus and hibernation and are now busy planning for the upcoming year. There are some exciting things going on! We begin the year with the trio playing at the NAMM music industry convention in Anaheim for our friends at Shubb Capos. The rest of January will be a wood-shedding month as we prepare new songs and polish the act for a busy wintertime. February will find us returning to Ernest Troost’s “Juke Joint Gang” songwriter’s show at the Talking Stick in Venice and on the bill once again at the San Francisco Bluegrass and Old Time Festival, this time sharing the stage at the Freight & Salvage with the wonderful Kathy Kallick band as well as sharing a bill at the Palms Playhouse and Studio 55 Marin earlier that weekend with Houston Jones. Later that month we scurry off to Memphis for the International Folk Alliance Conference and some site seeing to Graceland and awesome barbeque! I can't wait to see the ducks at the famous Peabody hotel and visit Sun Records!

Other great things coming for 2012 include a possible short tour for me and Steve to the UK in April (we're working on it!), as well as a new band album we'll record this summer. We'll be presenting 4 new songs from Rob Carlson, along with works from Ernest Troost, Steve Earle, James Taylor and Jean Ritchie. And for those of you who've been waiting patiently, we're finally going to record Fred's great song "Rockin' In Your Grand Daddy's Chair" along with other surprises. We hope for a new CD release right around this time next year.

Thanks to our friend Pattie Van Over on the camera and our own Mark Indictor as editor, we have five brand new videos on our YouTube channel from our show in December at the Grand Annex with Fur Dixon and Steve Werner. See them at www.youtube.com/susieglaze And also check out a very cool article published in late December in Pasadena's The Rose Magazine written by our friend Michelle Mills called "Fiddling Around in Space" about Mark. Find it here:  Rose Magazine Article

And if you didn't catch it, our friend Carl Gage did a great review of our last release "Live At The Freight & Salvage" in No Depression in September: Check it out at No Depression Review of "Live" CD by Carl Gage 

So please stay tuned for more good news! Make sure you visit our website, drop us a line on Facebook, and plan to come see us at a show.

We send you all love, and best wishes for a happy and prosperous New Year. To that end I'd like to quote Mark's New Year prayer: "May we all know the joys and sorrows of all living things as our own, and may our 2012 be filled with love, kindness, compassion, health, abundance, peace and blessings. Amen."

I couldn't say it any better.

November-December is Gold!

Hello Dear Friends,

Susie with Rob Carlson, Mark Indictor, Steve Rankin and Fred Sanders
Photo by Andy Sheng of Otis & Lucy Photography



The brilliant Autumn color has really turned on in our neighborhood, and even though the days are so short of light, those golds and reds cheer my heart.

We welcome Steve Rankin back to the fold for our two December shows, our last of the year, at two wonderful venues ~ the first at the Grand Annex in San Pedro on December 3rd and the amazing Claremont Folk Music Center on December 10th. If you're in the area, you should see the Claremont Folk Music Center just for the sheer museum of musical instruments from around the world.

In the last couple of weeks the band and I have been doing some lovely work on a new song from Ernest Troost, "Harlan County Boy" which is a natural hearken back to the Carter Family classics.  We will be doing a new studio album next year and hope this one makes it on that collection, which will include four new songs from Rob Carlson, another of Ernest's ("Evangeline"), a classic from Steve Werner, Jean Ritchie's gorgeous "The Soldier" and a song I've been aching to do for a long time, James Taylor's "Millworker."  Also, for those of you who have been asking for years now for a recording of Steve singing Steve Earl's "Me and the Eagle" and Fred's "Grand Daddy's Chair" you will get your wish on this one ~ it's time for those to hit the light of day!   

I've been really enjoying a great read recently bought and currently relishing, Judy Collins' new book "Sweet Judy Blue Eyes."  I had the pleasure recently of seeing Judy in concert here in LA and it made me want lots more of her.  Her new album "Paradise" is also really wonderful and I recommend both the book and new recording to you Judy fans out there.  

I've also been busy planning for the band for 2012. There are some exciting things happening...we start the year with the trio playing at the NAMM music industry convention in Anaheim at the booth for Shubb Capos for which we are representative artists. February will find us on the bill once again at the San Francisco Bluegrass and Old Time Festival as well as sharing a bill at the Palms Playhouse with a wonderful Northern California band Houston Jones. We then scurry off to Memphis, Tennessee for the International Folk Alliance Conference for which we're official showcase artists. Lots of other great things coming for 2012, so please stay tuned!  We will probably be going into the studio this summer so should have the album out by this time next year or early 2013.  Be sure to visit Our Website and our YouTube channel for some very cool show video.

We send you all love, and best wishes for a fun and happy holiday season,

Susie and The Hilonesome Band

AUGUST NEWS

Happy Dog Days Friends ~

We hope Summer is treating you well and you're having a fun time with family and friends, whether traveling or staying around home, and that you're enjoying some great music along the way.

We had the good fortune to catch Ernest Troost live at Westside Music here in Los Angeles on July 23rd, with his fine band. And we just published a review of his great new CD, "Ernest Troost Live at McCabe's" on Folkworks. Read it Here: http://www.folkworks.org/reviews/cd-reviews

There's new band photography coming up with Andy Sheng of Otis and Lucy Photography. Andy is known mainly for great animal photography, but we like his work with musicians also, so we're headed in with our brushes and combs and powder for some new snapshots of the band. Check out Andy's work Here: http://www.otisandlucy.com  I think it's probably safe to predict that our Megs will end up in the shots.

Our July tour was FANTASTIC, and we have lots of people to thank ~ Rick Nagle at the Westside Theatre in Newman, Alan Molho of Landfall House concerts in the lovely Watsonville, Houston Jones with whom we shared an awesome night at Don Quixote's in Felton near Santa Cruz, Mike Russell at KKUP in San Jose, Michael Hall of the Northern California Bluegrass Society for his great interview, Lois Kellerman for her great interview and playing our music at KZSU at Stanford University, Steve Baker and Brian Walker at the Freight & Salvage, the great Bill Evans for sharing an awesome night of music with us there, Evangeline Elston, Kim Rogers at KVMR in Nevada City, Steve and Donna Friedman at Mama Llama's in Weaverville and finally Don Murphy and Gene Bach for bringing us back to the Scott Valley Bluegrass Festival for the second year in a row. We especially thank Don and Sandra Murphy for opening their lovely ranch house to us for bunking and rehearsals! We send special thanks also to our photographers on the road, Pattie Van Over who traveled with us and took video as well as marvelous shots of the venues and us, Mike Melnyk in Berkeley, and Charles Nelson in Etna in Scott Valley. Their great work will go with us on the road for years to come. We also give a shout out to Devon Leger for his promo work for us on the tour, Lisa at the Daily Staple in Berkeley for the posters, and Kathy Pomianek for helping with the booking at Don Quixote's. And last but definitely not least, we're so grateful to Lisa Burns and Rick Glaze for use of their homes in the Bay area. Everyone helped us so much along the way ~ thank you to our friends, old and new! It was a trip we won't ever forget!

Our August will take us on the road for only one weekend, on August 12th when we join the Good Old Fashioned Bluegrass Festival near Hollister, California. We're looking forward to this one! Later this month we're playing for our first time at the lovely Levitt Pavilion in Pasadena, and a show with Brad Colerick at his songwriter's concert series, also in Pasadena, called Wine & Song. And we need EVERYONE to come out for our FAR-West fundraiser at the Coffee Gallery in Altadena on August 27th, on a great lineup with Merlin Snider and Border Radio. All proceeds will go to benefit the Folk Alliance Regional (FAR-West), so plan to come out for a great evening of music on August 27th! and help this great music organization.

We hope you'll visit our website and check out the new album Live at the Freight & Salvage. In the meantime, happy trails! and we want to see you at a show this month!

Love,
Susie

Out And About! Summer Touring In July

Out and About - July Tour!

As I write, the band and I are eagerly preparing to leave Los Angeles in just about a week's time for destinations North! We have a marvelous Summer 2011 Hilonesome Band Tour planned, and we're "scratchin' gravel" to get goin'! We're excited about seeing friends old and new, playing some of our favorite places from last summer, and just getting out on the road together and having adventures!

The whole tour schedule is below and we hope that if you are in the areas of our shows you will come out and see us, and if you're not, please let your friends and family in those areas know that we're on the way and we have fantastic new music! This year we're debuting four new songs from our own Rob Carlson, and one each from our So. Cal. buds Ernest Troost and Steve Werner. We've also dusted off some of our oldies from the first solo album "Home On The Hill," (including the title cut from that album by our good friend Dan Jenkins), songs from Jean Ritchie's brilliant catalogue of mountain ballads and original writing, along with songs from our faves Steve Earle, Gillian Welch and the late great Hazel Dickens. I'm particularly excited to be working with the great Bay area banjoist Bill Evans on his guest feature with us at Berkeley's Freight & Salvage on July 13th. We'll be doing some banjo/voice material that is profound and beautiful. We hope you can join us there! We'll also have our new album "Live at The Freight & Salvage" with us on the road from last year's concert there.  You've gotta get your copy!

Please see our schedule below, and we really want to see 'yall out on the road!
Here's to a great summer, and thanks for reading!

With love,
Susie
