DBT #442 Around Town Vol. 4
Let's jump into it with a few rules, no repeats and they don't all come from the 110 recent uploads since Volume 3.
1) Wake up Baby - Amanda Pascali
I'm so grateful that Pablo Center added Amanda Pascali to their 715 series, and they had a pretty decent crowd show up on a Wednesday for this wonderful songwriter now from Austin TX. There is simply no one I can compare her style of music to; so here's one she borrows a little from Ray Orbison.
2) Love Me Like You've Always Been Mine - Buffalo Rose
I could have recorded the whole night, what a powerful group to be in the front row. Worth a three hour drive and staying in the Hilton for walking distance.
3) Roll On, Rose - The Weary Ramblers
The third new 2026 video from our first visit to Winona Arts Center; of course it has friends that have made these lists before, the Weary Ramblers. They did a bunch of new songs that night including this one:
4) Tobacco Road - The Barefoot Movement
Wow, just thinking of the music I've seen in this short while in 2026; so good. We hadn't seen the BM for a while, and they were awesome. Again I took more videos than normal; but I was in the front row again for this masterpiece.
5) Safe Home - Johnsmith with Elisi Smith-Waller
Now everyone expects John to close the night with this incredible farewell wish; now I can say he did it at my house too.
6) Big Dipper - Humbird
Oh my our Eau Claire Fairytale weekend, was our first taste of what was possible. I had the most fun writing about it too, so take a chance to read it here. Ok yes this video does have it's own post; but it needs to be in the highlights too.
7) Farther Along - Kelley Smith w/Kelly Hunt
Sure I'd travel three hours to see Kelly Hunt (and I have in Vol 3) but I'm good with right down the road to my favorite watering hole; The Trempealeau Hotel.
8) Take It To The Garden - Maygen and the Birdwatcher
It was so much fun to have these great musicians in the house.
9) The Pretender - Tim Kolek
If you think I avoid cover bands, it's not true. I love covers placed strategically placed in a set; and I've been known to enjoy a tribute night. Tim's tribute to Jackson Browne was spot on.
10) Lonely Heart - Cactus Blossoms
Another front row seat and finally a time I could get good video of the boys. Winona's Artist Next Door series is simply wonderful.
11) Can You Hear Me - The Rebel Eves
I saved the last two videos to venture out of the most recent. It appears I haven't shared the fact that I fell in love again with an all woman group. Like it doesn't happen say once a month at least. The Rebel Eves had both Lori and I's attention at Mile of Music; we would love to see them again.
12) People My Age - John Gorka
Leave them laughing and maybe at themselves. John is recorded here where the new Sweet Beats Jazz and Desert Lounge has opened up for a Great River Folk Fest event.
Just for you, here's a playlist of Dave's Dozen volume 4 of Around Town.
Of course you can and should feel free to venture through all 818 videos here, more added weekly it seems.
