SUMMARY:Import From Zap Calendar 12212022 - Mustard's Retreat Performs
URL;VALUE=URI:https://iloveoswego.com/21258/mustards-retreat-performs.html?tmpl=component
DESCRIPTION:\nMustard’s Retreat (David Tamulevich and Michael Hough), met in Ann Arbor,
  MI in 1974, as short order cooks, both on hiatus from their studies at the
  University of Michigan. Discovering a mutual interest in music/writing and
  performing, they put together 3 songs one day after work, and took them to
  the legendary Ark coffeehouse’s open mike night. They were a hit, and, on 
 the spot, were invited back to do a 45 minute set 2 weeks later. Within a y
 ear and a half they had both quit the restaurant and were doing music full 
 time. 40 years later, they have 12 highly acclaimed recordings of their own
 , plus 3 more CDs with their songwriting collective, The Yellow Room Gang. 
 Mustard’s Retreat has performed more than 4,000 shows over those years, tra
 veled more than 1 million miles and in doing so, have earned a dedicated an
 d loyal following, many of whom have been coming to hear them since the 197
 0s. .\nSpike Barkin, who produces the prestigious Roots of American Music F
 estival at New York City’s Lincoln Center, wrote to thank them for their “f
 olk from the heart,” going on to say it seemed like David and Michael “take
  your living room on the road with you and invite people in as friends.” Da
 vid Siglin, of Ann Arbor’s premier folk club, The Ark, where Mustard’s Retr
 eat did that first open mike, and have head-lined many, many times since sa
 id, “In order to last, there has to be more than just talent – you have to 
 enjoy playing, enjoy audiences and enjoy being in front of them. Audiences 
 go to your shows because they know they will be entertained.” Margie Rosenk
 ranz, manager of the Eighth Step at Proctor’s Theatre in Schenectady, NY, w
 ho has presented Mustard’s Retreat many times, said a Mustard’s Retreat sho
 w “reminds us why we’re doing this, pulls people together,” adding that the
  duo transcends the vagaries of passing trends because they remain so “in t
 une with the audience.”\n“I work with them several times a year and always 
 wish it was more.” said Canadian songwriter Garnet Rogers, who also produce
 d their landmark recording The Wind and the Crickets. “The thing that alway
 s impresses me is the incredible openness they have with the audience. They
  stand up there and just radiate friendliness; the audience is included in 
 the whole process, encouraged to sing along and talk back. I’ve learned a l
 ot from them in that sense.”\n“They are so warm and friendly and giving on 
 stage, completely in touch with their audience,” said Tom Paxton, a folk mu
 sic star for more than 40 years. “There are no barriers at all, and you jus
 t love to watch that and be part of it. But the thing that strikes me about
  them from Jump Street – and that makes it all work so well – is that their
  time is so tight. Michael is such a wonderful, simple bass player; his tim
 e is just flawless. And that’s why two guys can move you musically the way 
 they do – they have a gorgeous sense of time and tempo, a real musicality t
 o what they do. They’re nice guys on stage and entertaining as hell, but th
 ere’s also music in them.”\nWhile both Tamulevich and Hough are grounded in
  the early traditional 60s folk music boom, they also were influenced by th
 e songwriters of that time, and their shows represent an eclectic blend of 
 music, old and new, with a big dash of storytelling. “We have never perform
 ed the same show twice,” says Tamulevich, “Each night is its own unique mom
 ent, unique audience. For us, that is the exciting thing, the magic: to cra
 ft a shared experience and leave people entertained and moved…and with mome
 nts and songs they will take away with them and remember, ponder, rediscove
 r; hopefully for years to come.” Many of those moments are the result of th
 eir well-respected and broad body of original material, written both indivi
 dually and together. “We take our writing very seriously.” says Tamulevich,
  “No matter if it is a serious or humorous song. A song is a tool to commun
 icate a feeling or a story, …to connect and find some common ground….and we
  want them to be as effective as we can make it. It is a challenge that we 
 happily embrace. Each song is a unique puzzle, and it is fun to see where i
 t can and does take you as you write it. Michael and I are both very differ
 ent people and writers; having different strengths, and that diversity, whe
 n we can get it right, can make a song a whole lot richer and more effectiv
 e. It is a very rewarding process.”\nThose memorable songs have been a hall
 mark of Mustard’s Retreat from the first. The spooky, Mallon’s Bridge, that
  tells the story of a haunted bridge in Ireland and the midnight encounter 
 that takes place there, has been a staple of Folk radio on Halloween since 
 it first came out in the early 1980s. There’s A Dance Tonight celebrates lo
 ve and community , the poignant Part of Me Remembers, the humorous Michigan
  Mosquitoes, the anthemic ( Ours is a) Simple Faith and Gather the Family…t
 o the insightful and powerful Pay the Toll….all and more have received exte
 nsive airplay and many have been covered by other singers.\n“And it is stil
 l new, fresh, exciting….and fun” concludes Tamulevich. “We still really enj
 oy all of this: the writing and the performing. Audiences let us know that 
 they enjoy it as well. They have taken our music and made it a part of thei
 r lives: that is the ultimate compliment, and as long as they want to see u
 s, we plan to keep performing.”\nDoors open at 7PM\nTickets available at Ri
