| Adrienne
Frailey, young and promising! |
This
summer the
Lakeside Melodies stage was the domain of young, fresh talent.
Adrienne Frailey, accompanied by Joy Frailey played a lot
of tunes from her first, just released cd Goodnight
to the stars.
A cd full of original tunes. Adrienne Frailey, coming
from a musical family, is developing into a good singersongwriter.
Her voice has matured over the last couple of years, which
shows in the number of good (folky) ballads and other songs
on her cd. She plays guitar and piano. If you're interested,
click HERE!
The website links you to several youtube movies, so you
can judge for yourself. Lakeside Melodies was happy to have
her on stage and we're sure this is not the last we will
hear from this talented singer.

| Reily
O'Connor & Molly Moon, a great blend
Reily O'Connor and Molly Moon swept our usual crowd of
their feet mid May. The musical couple played some great
original songs at the stage of Lakeside Melodies during
the monthly pot luck dinner for friends and music lovers.
Molly playing mandolin and guitar, Reily playing guitar,
both singing. The two know how to create a good atmosphere.
We'd love to have them back any time!
Reily has made several cd's. If you didn't get a chance
to join us in May, click HERE
to know more about them. A

A nice group of musicians joined in the jamming, including
guests of Lakeside Melodies traveling with a piano! They
had a blast. 'It sounds like this group has been playing
together regularly,

it's just amazing', according to the enthusiastic audience,
that really appreciated this 'encore'.

B.B.
Wolfe, a real
folk man
The audience was pleased with the performance of B.B.
Wolfe at Lakeside Melodies. This wonderful singer and
songwriter showed he knows what folk is all about. His
music comes from a tradition of folk, folk-blues and roots
music wrapped around lyrics that are part of what it means
to be human and the conditions that brings. A story about
life and living. We were happy to have him on our stage.

Elliott
surprises with great lyrics
After Elliott's solo performance, a few musicians joined
on stage for some fun jamming.
He's been a musician over decades. Michael Elliott from
South Bend. In March he played and sang at Lakeside Melodies
at one of our musical pot luck dinners for our faithful
circle of family and music friends.
Elliott surprised the crowd with his original tunes. Beautiful
songs about love and life, all written by himself.
Great singing and guitar playing, but the lyrics strike
you most of all. He had a very attentive and enthusiastic
audience.
Thank you Michael for sharing your music with us at Lakeside
Melodies. We sure hope to see and hear you again. Michael
