$20 DonationSaturday, September 29, 2012 - Stacey Earle and Mark Stuart
Few husband-wife musical duos provide audiences with the complete entertainment package that Stacey Earle & Mark Stuart dish out in a live performance. Armed with clever acoustic guitar interplay, autobiographical songwriting, lovely harmonies, and humorous storytelling this couple captivates your attention from the first moment they are onstage. Based out of Tennessee, Earle and Stuart draw from blues, pop, country, rock, and more in their heartfelt music. The years of touring the folk/Americana circuit (playing 170 concerts a year) have given them a knack for reaching out to the audience in an intimate “come in to my living room” fashion.
Stacey and Mark are returning to Log House Concerts to help us celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary, which also happens to be Stacey's birthday! It should be another great evening of fine songwriting, singing and guitaring, please do come.

He's firmly grounded in authenticity and possessed of a musical soul as old as the vintage music he favors. Fluent in several styles and difficult to pigeonhole, Mike has captured the hearts of acoustic music fans throughout the world with his engaging voice, self-deprecating wit, and elegant interpretations of an arsenal of old blues, swing, ragtime, and original compositions.
"I don't play guitar when Dowling's in the band.
You don't take the game warden fishing" -- Jethro Burns
