 HEY LIVE MUSIC FANS! Scott and Michelle Dalziel are playing at the Smokehaus in South Amana on Saturday. They do some rock, some folk - think Paul Simon, the Beatles, Norah Jones and the Indigo Girls. I have gotten to know them personally, and they are awesome people.



Some non-biased sources:



"Michelle and Scott have a warmth and comfort level on stage that weaves perfectly with their above the norm playing and harmonizing"...- Patrick Fineran, The Journal Times, Racine WI. April 17, 2003



Dalziel takes the stage proving that in the right hands, two guitars are better than one. Their vocal styles are somewhat different - Michelle, alternately breathy and crystal clear, can let loose with a bluesy wail, and Scott's tenor flows conversationally - but the two blend their voices and guitars into a sweet, complicated whole in which every countermelody counts. The combination of rhythm, folk and classical guitar styles- and Michelle's drumming on certain songs- draws out comparisons to Indigo Girls, but most songs, even covers, were unique. For a moment the fierce weather was forgotten as toes tapped and hands clapped. The crowd had fun and so did the performers, proof that happiness is a guitar and a microphone." - Dana Duffield, Freeport Journal Standard, January 22, 2000



I highly recommend taking a peek if you're going to be in the area.
