We are really excited to host two wonderful artists this March. David played here at our house with Stephanie Corby in October 2008.We really loved him and his music. We have been trying to schedule Bob Sima for quite awhile and finally have been able to make it happen. Bob and David have been touring together this year to great reviews.
Bob Sima
When Bob Sima opens his mouth to sing, what comes out is beyond the human sounds of a warm and soulful voice, yep, there’s more. A story, a nudge, a reminder, an angle on something very familiar you probably have never considered. A poet, observer, scribe, sometimes reluctant healer all bundled up into one singing songwriting bundle of energy so tapped in…he kinda needs a glass. His right hand slaps the guitar in a seemingly casual fashion, usually in rhythm with all of the toes in the room. Bob lives in “rural” Maryland, high on a hill, under the stars, and he is usually gazing upward.
There is no way to encapsulate the record “Pour It On” other than histagline “Good Music for Good People”, you just have to listen for yourself to catch the vibe of this troubadour, you’ll be glad you did. The record is full of funky acoustic guitar, rich piano, a taste of gospel, folk, and out front the voice of Bob and the words you won’t soon forget. Not a topical or thematic songwriter, Bob is as comfortable with a raucous storytelling rambler as he is with a soft mellow ballad and why not throw in some alt country? All mind you without pretense or shoegazing. Real stuff, meaty and worth repeating. So come on in, listen, repeat.
David Glaser
"David's songs are like the gentle tap of a velvet hammer on the bell of your heart." - David Morreale, SNAFU Host. An award winning songwriter/guitarist from Baltimore, David has been recording and playing live music from the 70's forward, either as a solo artist, a band member, or a side man (see www.davidglaser.com for pictures & bio). Recently David has been making his presence felt as a soloartist in the acoustic/folk scene. His latest CD, "Cars & Lovers" (2008) charted on Folk Radio with the popular titles “Picture in My Car” and “House in Baltimore”. David's songs are lush and emotionally charged, and are delivered with the solid stagepresence of a seasoned performer. His intuitive and versatile guitar, mandolin, and harmony singing have made him a sought after side man and studio musician. He performs regularly with Lowen & Navarro, Stephanie Corby,and Bob Sima, among others.
