=95 8P Public Nudity Songwriters Night #3
A new series featuring great area songwriters. Hosted by Greg
Humphreys (Dillon Fence, Hobex).
This month's guest artists are: Cyril Lance and Mark Simonsen (from
The Old Ceremony)

Cyril Lance first came out with his debut album "Stranger in My House"
in 2001 after almost 20 years of working in group projects or as a
sideman that took him across much of the US and to Europe. His follow-
on album "LIVE from the OUTSKIRTS" was released in 2004 and
demonstrates the passion and sponteneity of his band featuring some of
the best roots-musicians in the country. Billboard Magazine wrote:
"Lance has masterminded one of the best contemporary blues albums of
the year. His virtuousity on guitar and lap steel is undeniable, and
his songwriting makes him an instant item in bluesville." RELIX
Magazine wrote" "After a dazzling solo debut, Cyril Lance returns with
a breathtaking six-song live disc from last December that further
strengthens the argument that he's one of the most exciting guitar
players around today. Lance's guitar soars from melodic phrases to
sinewy, spiraling leads." Cyril's music is rooted in the blues, but
everything else is fair game. Drawing from his wide experience in most
genres for the American music scene, his goal is to take you on a
journey that is full of passion and unique to that night.

=95 8P Paul Daniel (folk rock/acoustic)
Paul Daniel is a powerful singer/songwriter and guitarist from

one instrument, yet is always pushing for an even fuller folk rock
sound. His guitar work is layered and complex drawing influences from,
rock, blues, country, bluegrass and folk. Imagine Bruce Springsteen,
Mark Knopfler, Norman Blake and Jerry Garcia all channeled into one
guitar. The result is a rich foundation for songs with vivid scenes,
lingering stories and unforgettable lyrics.

Triangle in different venues that promote original work. They perform
with varying musicians, which allows them to experiment with different
sounds that they incorporate in their demos. Negative I was featured
on www.originalmindproductions.com for working with photographer Keith
Papke while doing a photo shoot for their upcoming Album. Drissy just
