SUMMARY:Magpie (Terry Leonino & Greg Artzner) at Folknet's Mountain Rose
DESCRIPTION:Magpie (Terry Leonino & Greg Artzner)\nMagpie (Terry Leonino and Greg Artzner) began to play music together in Kent\, Ohio in September of 1973. Terry was a student in her senior year at Kent State University in the fall of ’73\, and when she graduated the following spring\, she and Greg\, along with their band-mate at the time\, Mark Cozy\, packed Greg’s VW bus and moved to the Washington\, DC area. In the years since then\, they have traveled and toured extensively\, performed in concerts\, at folk clubs and festivals around the world\, and recorded many times. Acoustic bassist Paul Duff joined the trio for a year from 1975 to 1976. In ’76\, both Mark and Paul left the band and Terry and Greg continued on\, once more as a duo. \nTerry’s voice is a truly impressive instrument\, not only because of its natural power\, but also because of her versatility. She is a gifted singer of jazz and blues in the tradition of Connie Boswell and Billie Holiday\, but is equally comfortable with the subtle beauty of traditional folk and contemporary songs. Add to this her uncanny ability to find the perfect harmony line\, and\, in a powerful blend of their two voices\, you have a real treat for the ear. As if this weren’t enough\, Terry is also an excellent player of the harmonica\, mandolin\, fretted dulcimer\, and rhythm guitar. \nGreg is an outstanding guitarist whose fingerstyle approach owes a lot to his heroes\, guitar legends such as Reverend Gary Davis\, Big Bill Broonzy\, Nick Lucas\, Phil Ochs\, and Rolly Brown. His playing is the solid basis of Magpie’s sound\, providing whatever is called for\, whether it be a hard-driving rhythm\, or a ringing lyrical beauty. From a slow Scots air or a plaintive ballad to a rollicking ragtime blues or infectious swing\, Greg covers it all. His high baritone voice has equal range and his captivating interpretation gives power and beauty to the full spectrum\, from growling blues\, to a Chilean lament\, to a sweet croon. \nFrom the beginning Terry and Greg’s interests in various musical styles have led them to be eclectic in their repertoire. Rather than confine themselves to a single style\, Magpie has always embraced a veritable musical rainbow\, and with impressive proficiency in each different genre. From traditional\, classic country\, swing\, and blues of the nineteen twenties and thirties\, to contemporary songs written by themselves and others\, Terry and Greg cover a lot of musical ground.

SUMMARY:The Hired Hands at Folknet's Mountain Rose

They have performed at many private venues\, community concerts\, and festivals\, including Ontario’s Celtic Roots Festival\, the Ohio Scottish Games\, and the Dulci-More Festival.

SUMMARY:February Sky
DESCRIPTION:February Sky is traditional singer and Celtic guitarist Phil Cooper with songwriter and singer Susan Urban.  Phil sings and plays his own arrangements of traditional songs and tunes on six string guitar and cittern\, and he also interprets a number of carefully chosen songs from the best of modern Folk song writers\, as well as backing Susan up on her songs.  Susan Urban is a writer of story songs and humorous “slice of life” songs.  She accompanies her songs\, plus Phil’s songs and tunes\, on six and 12-string guitar\, six string banjo\, mountain dulcimer\, hand percussion instruments and Native American Style flute.  Phil and Susan present a combination of old and new songs addressing the widest possible range of experience\, complete with vocal harmony\, intricate instrumentation and thoughtful stagecraft.  They believe that Folk Music is a continuum – whether the songs are self-penned or have a history thousands of years old\, as long as they speak to the human condition and the human heart\, they carry on the Folk Music tradition. \nhttp://www.februarysky.com/index.html

SUMMARY:Mustard's Retreat at Folknet's Mountain Rose
DESCRIPTION:Mustard’s Retreat (David Tamulevich & Libby Glover)\, the folk music group once dubbed “Ann Arbor’s house band” is marking its 50th year. Mustard’s Retreat has always sung the songs they enjoyed and cared about\, regardless of the trends of the music industry and pop culture. They are committed to simply being themselves\, not chasing fame or brass rings\, while delighting in and connecting with their audiences as if they were family. The honesty of what they present onstage and the extensive body of outstanding original songs and recordings all contribute to a fiercely loyal audience that continues to grow. “Music to cure what ails you” was how one reviewer in the 1970s described them\, and that is as true now as it was then.\nThey’ve traveled more than a million miles and performed more than 6\,000 shows\, from pig roasts and pool parties to Lincoln Center Out of Doors\, The Barns at Wolftrap and the Kennedy’s Center’s Millennium Stage.\nTheir performances are always joyful and uplifting\, as well as intelligent\, thought provoking and insightful. They’ve recently begun referring to their career and touring as “Defiantly Hopeful.” In part due to their long career\, but more as a statement about what the music has meant to them. “Folk music is\, at its heart\, defiantly hopeful!” Tamulevich says. “We came of age in the 60s\, at the confluence of Pete Seeger\, Peter\, Paul & Mary\, Bob Dylan and the singer/songwriter revolution. We care much more about what we do and stand for and finding that common ground with our audiences\, than fame or money: this is our community of choice\, and we consider ourselves so fortunate to be here.”\nPut on by Folknet at Standing Rock Cultural Arts in Kent\, OH on the first Sunday of months in the spring and fall\, this concert series has a history of over 50 years in the Kent area. Suggested donation at the door is $15\, $12 for Folknet members\, and an additional $5 covers all the children in a family with a responsible adult.

SUMMARY:Deb Cowan Concert
DESCRIPTION:Debra Cowan was once asked what kind of songs she writes. Her reply? “Bad ones. Besides\, there are so many good songs out there written by others and they should be sung.” Her captivating warm alto carries each folk song she chooses with such emotion that you’ll forget that they were written by others. She performs a cappella and with guitar in the great tradition of folk singers like Joan Baez and Judy Collins\, with a clear vocal that calls forth the ghosts of long past but can also offer a more modern urban landscape. In her newest release\, a live recording entitled “Among Friends”\, she demonstrates her ability to interact with her audience and have them enthusiastically sing along on choruses and refrains.
