The Coal Men
Oct 21, 2011 | 0 commentsSometimes, the sum of something is much greater than it’s parts….this is exceptionally true when it comes to Nashville-based band, The Coal Men, who have just released their CD, Kids With Songs, on Funzalo Records. Now a road tested and more focused band, Kids With Songs is the product of ‘divorce, death and broken bones’ among other life changing events. This is an especially auspicious occasion, as this is also the tenth anniversary of the bands’ formation. Funzalo is expecting nothing but success for this phenomenal trio. Featuring lead singer/guitarist Dave Coleman, drummer Dave Ray, and Bassist Hitch(short for Hitchcock), The Coal Men’s music is rich, full of melody and hooks, and incredibly entertaining. Songs that tell stories that convey pain, love, longing, hope, and hopelessness. Behind those lyrics lies music that is lush and beautiful.

David Grier
Oct 21, 2011 | 0 commentsBorn in Washington, D.C. in 1961, a family move to Nashville at age 3 fully immersed David Grier into the bluegrass music world, and at age 6, he began playing the guitar. Today, he is regarded as one of the premier acoustic guitarists in the world, along with his early influences, Doc Watson, Tony Rice, and family friend Clarence White. Recognized by Acoustic Guitar Magazine in 2000 as one of the Artists of the Decade, and named Guitar Player of the Year three times by the International Bluegrass Music Association, Grier has played on four Grammy Award-winning albums (True Life Blues: A Tribute to Bill Monroe; The Great Dobro Sessions; Alison Brown’s Fairweather; and Amazing Grace 2: A Country Salute to Gospel). Having released four albums on Rounder, beginning in 1988 with Freewheeling, Grier launched his own label, Dreadnought Recordings, with the 1998 debut release, Hootenanny, with Dirk Powell and Tim O’Brien (“endlessly inventive and tasteful” – All Music Guide)....
