Hello All, I hope everyone is staying cool. What a hot summer! Speaking of hot summers, Eric Scott's ITZALL Goode Concert Series and SHC Presents at 49 West Coffeehouse, Winebar, and Gallery have quite a lineup coming in the next few months. You can get TICKETS ONLINE for $20 or call (410) 626-9796 for a reservation for $23.00. Do not call and reserve if you bought a ticket online. That is your reservation. Our next show features Pete Best and The Rachel Hall Band on July 15 at 7:30 PM Rachel Hall is a singer/songwriter/guitarist known for her powerhouse voice. Fans compare her to Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, Brandi Carlile, and Janis Joplin. Already a popular voice in the Baltimore/Washington Area before moving to Nashville, Pete and his band Peterbuilt-have opened for established stars, including Jack Ingram and Pat Green. Growing up in Annapolis, Md., Pete enjoyed a variety of musical styles but developed a passion for country music because of the lyric-driven content of the songs. “It’s great to connect with an audience, but I am first and foremost a songwriter,” Pete says. “I love to tell a great story through music.” On September 16, the featured artists are SHC favorite Marc Douglas Berardo and Kelley Mickwee. Mickwee has been a mainstay in the Texas-based music scene for years: currently, as part of Kevin Russell’s Shinyribs’ Shiny Soul Sisters, singing harmony and background vocals at his live shows and recordings; as one-fourth of the acclaimed Americana group The Trishas, with Jamie Lin Wilson, Savannah Welch and Liz Foster; and before then as one-half of a Memphis, TN-based duo Jed and Kelley. But sometimes what gets lost in the shuffle of all the well-deserved acclaim for what she adds to other artist’s projects is the music she makes in her own right. Kelley sings a duet on the song “Hearts In Play”, a track on Marc's new record “The Beauty Of This Now”. This record was recorded at Jumping Dog Studio in Austin and produced by Texas living legend, Walt Wilkins and his production partner Ron Flynt. It has a host of Texas nobility performing on the record. He also released a video for “I'm Listening Now”, another song from the record. He will have some new songs and CDs to share with you. In October, songwriters, New Mexico-based Dirk Hamilton and Graham Weber from Texas are featured artists. “Like most facets of professional show biz, the music industry can be a fickle affair. Artists that steal the spotlight one moment are easily discarded the next. Talent and tenacity have little to do with that equation. Indeed, some of the most insightful artists making music in both the present and the past are often confined to a status that remains well below the radar, creating their art for devoted fans and critics who bemoan their lack of wider recognition. Dirk Hamilton is one such artist…” - Lee Zimmerman, American Songwriter About Graham, The Austin Monthly writes, “The Austin folk songwriter takes a step toward the avant-garde on Faded Photos. Fusing his throwback inspirations, including the great John Prine, with modern-day art-rock acts like Wilco, Weber is a promising addition to the live music circuit, with particular thanks to his bare-boned lyrics.” I know Monday nights are hard, but I hope you can make one or all of these shows. 100% of the door goes to the artists. See you soon,

I’m writing to invite you to join my virtual table for the streaming event Every Step Tells a Story — An Evening of Music and Storytelling presented by O Museum in The Mansion on October 24th, 2021 at 6:00 PM EST
EVERY STEP TELLS A STORY is a once-in-a-lifetime event will feature stories from The O Museum and appearances by artists, performers and storytellers from all walks of life including 13 time GRAMMY Winner Emmylou Harris, Oscar & GRAMMY winner Paul Williams and many more.
Support for this event will help sustain the ground-breaking programs for the arts and social justice at the O MUSEUM IN THE MANSION including Artist and Heroes-in-Residence, and 51 Steps to Freedom; the first ever tour in Washington, DC that combines history, art, and culture to connect prominent Civil Rights sites to tell the story of Washington, DC — and America’s — journey (since 1791) for equality and representation.
I think you all know about my dedication and devotion to The O Museum in The Mansion. I have hosting concerts there live prior to COVID and online post COVID. I first started out knowing about how they support the arts and the artists we love. Since then, I have found out that they do so much more. I serve on the planning committee/board for this event and the O Museum in the Mansion that is located in Washington, D.C.
Now more than ever we believe the world needs to hear messages of hope, love, unity, and understanding. The money raised through Every Step Tells a Story will allow the O Museum in The Mansion to continue to provide tools for children to better themselves, for individuals to find understanding, and for companies to add depth, context, and solutions to all levels of their organization.
I invite all of you, my friends, to join me at my virtual table at no cost to you to be inspired at this remarkable evening of music and storytelling. Please register HERE to sit at my "virtual" table. You’ll be asked for my Table Host Name: Susie Markland and my email: shcmusictribe@gmail.com when you sign up. Once you are registered, you will be sent a link to watch shortly before the show begins.
Please feel free to share my invitation link with others who you know that would like to attend. I would be delighted to welcome them to my virtual table!
Thank you and I look forward to being in touch,
