Dave Nudo is a country singer/songwriter based in the hills above Boise. (I think that makes him a hillbilly!) Thursday evening, he played some covers and originals at Swirl Wine Shop & Lounge in downtown Nampa. Here is “How Do I”, which is a song about a girl. Imagine that. :-) Actually, a special girl, his fiance.
Corey James Grubb is a Treasure Valley singer/songwriter, originally from Mountain Home. Wednesday evening, he played an evening of covers and originals at Maddie’s Wine & Whiskey in Meridian. Here’s a Jack Ingram tune, “I Feel Like Drinking Tonight”.
As a special treat, check out a gallery of 15 pictures, as shot by new friend Rick Walters.
Brook Faulk & Zac Roberts teamed up to bring some music to Talon Tap & Spirits (inside Albertsons in Meridian) on an early Saturday evening. Zac was her guitarist years ago before he left the area. He has returned, they are reunited, and the music is great. From her first album, here’s Arsenic.
