Rob Clark and Christine Costanzo formed a friendship over years of camping and performing together at the Rocky Mountain Song School and Folks Fest in Lyons, Colorodo--one of the devastated communities from the recent flooding in Colorodo. Rob is on tour promoting his new CD. This show is a benefit for the flood victims with all CD sales and cover charge going to the Lyon\'s Community Fund.

Rob Clark:

\"Just about everywhere I-ve ever been, I-ve played music - in homes, in pubs, around campfires - and the people I-ve played with have been everything from close friends to complete strangers. With them I sometimes learned, sometimes taught, and sometimes stood silent in complete awe of their musical genius.\" - Rob Clark

Rob Clark is a multi-instrument singer-songwriter. Originally from Western New York, he has been a resident of Boulder, Colorado for more than 20 years. Rob makes his way onto the music scene on multiple fronts, participating in festivals, jams, and on-stage performances -- much of these Colorado local, but he-s also taken it to places in California, Kentucky, New York, Wales, and Argentina. Rob-s instruments include the guitar, fiddle, and banjo. He enjoys singing, and especially harmony singing. Favorite genres include outlaw country, country, rock, Celtic, bluegrass, folk, and Americana. .

Rob has played in several bands in Colorado integrating his own songs wherever possible: Cheese Shoppe; a band of co-workers playing electric rock and roll and dance music, Steel Pennies; playing straight up bluegrass, Windfall; a sort of coffeehouse rock band, and RCJK; a duo with a strong emphasis on original music and harmony singing.

This year Rob made his debut album. In preparing the material, he wanted to capture a set of songs that sounded good together but also offered a broad view into his writing. That was something producer John McVey understood right away. The album Two Hands On The Wheel is Rob-s first full production effort. It features some of the best local area musicians. It was recorded at Coupe Studios and mastered at Airshow. As such, its an all-Colorado project, something Rob is quite happy to point out.

Christine Costanzo:

\"Though she\'s from Ohio and currently resides in Madison, Costanzo favors the bare-bone melancholy musings of Appalachia, with a dash of Joni Mitchell\'s windswept Canada thrown in\"... - The Onion

\"(Costanzo\'s) playing and singing have the starkness of Gillian Welch. (She) has a beautiful voice that exudes a sense of weariness with a touch of hope. With an introspective streak a mile wide...(she) lets her music invite you into her world-\" - The Greenman Review

\"The voices of her narrators are as strong as you can wish for\" - The Ectophile\'s Guide to Good Music
