Listen to our Sunday Musicians
1:00pm: Dan Arrecis
Dan Arrecis, lead singer, guitar player, and songwriter has put together a powerful and moving debut in Alive Day. The songs bring you back and take you somewhere new and unexplored. Their debut album “Blindsided By Hope” is now completed. This modern rock band speaks to audiences with their songs of shared experiences while engaging and challenging our changing times. Every listen to “Sparkle and Shimmer” or “Drifting” tells a different story with every play and with melodies that keep you singing and moving. Listen to Dan at www.myspace.com/aliveday.
2:30pm: Zach Livingston
Zach Livingston puts together his sound by molding the sensibilities of a folk singer-songwriter with the passion of a soul singer and the smiling melancholy of a bluesman. Having done a lot of traveling and seen a lot of things, Zach has a lot of stories and sentiments set to music – but the real aim is to find something timeless in those stories and write songs people really connect with. Music by a vagabond, written for everyone – best taken with a tall frosty beverage, a grain of salt, and a love of life. Listen to Zach at www.myspace.com/zachlivingstonmusic.
