Sing a Song of Springtime ~
Spring, Easter
Entire program( not broken
into specific songs) :
https://youtu.be/g_cIrV-LCoI
This program was recorded live from a Zoom performance for St.
John's on the Lake in Milwaukee WI on April 13, 2021 celebrating
springtime. In retrospect, it occurred to me that this program was also
a showcase of songs by my "mentors" - the folksingers that have had the
greatest impact on how and what I sing and my "go to" songwriters when
I'm putting a general family program together. (There was also a Tom
Paxton song included, but it was cut because of time constraints)
The songs include:
Shine On Me
(David HB Drake)
Circle Of Sun
(Sally Rogers)
All God's Critters (Bill Staines)
How can I keep
from Singing? (Arrangement- Paul Stookey)
Faith of Man

Mary)

historic instruments including banjo, dulcimer, concertina, Native
American Flute, and guitar for groups of all ages. Folks of all ages are

Searching for a Better World~
Folk Music and the Search for a Better
World
https://youtu.be/TwMnn82ikNE
"Folk Music and the Search
for a Better World" is a workshop that David presented at the Wisconsin
Association for Home and Community Education ( https://wahceinc.org/)
annual convention in Stevens Point WI on September 21, 2021. This is a
statewide group with chapters in every Wisconsin county that works on
local community issues and well being.
The object of the
workshop was to show examples of folk music that have a strong message
for a better world with some background on the songs, the structure of
music, tips on how to make your own music and "song-finding" using
traditional books and current search methods on the web.
David
draws on songs and slides from his "Blowing in the Wind", "Potluck" and
"Illustrated Songs" PowerPoint programs for the visuals and performs on
guitar, banjo, dulcimer, and concertina.
