Join us for a showcase of three regional songwriters. Dave Desmelik:
Dave Desmelik is a singer-songwriter and instrumentalist whose musical focus is on original compositions. What attracts listeners to Desmelik’s tunes, old and new, is the element of authenticity incorporated in them. There is no sugar coating involved. His songs are not wrapped in false smiles, rather they are stark and open and tend to settle on the pulse of everyday life. An unclosed and evolving journal of thoughts set to music and melodies in prose and instrumental performance. If you listen to Dave Desmelik’s songs, whether lyrical or instrumental, you may become pleasantly fixed in the simplistic realness of them and if you hear Desmelik in a live setting you may realize that there are no tricks, just a genuine venture into the highs and lows of life.
Laura Blackley
Laura Blackley is a singer, writer and purveyor of high lonesome Appalachian blues and soul. She plays ‘folk tunes with a rock n roll soundtrack’ with her band the Wildflowers. Their album, titled “Tell It To the Darkness” was released in April 2017.
Devin Gentry
Rooted right here in Brevard, NC, Devin Gentry brings a powerful, homegrown sound to the stage with his authentic songwriting that is inspired by the mountains, rivers, and relationships that surround him. Rooted in Southern rock, with touches of soul, funk, country, and blues, Gentry's smooth yet gritty vocals pair perfectly with tasteful guitar playing. As the frontman for the up-and-coming band, Run Pheasant Run, he is looking forward to sharing the essence of his songs alongside fellow songwriters.
