A Grey Haven House Concert dream has come true. When we started Grey Haven House Concerts in 2005, there were a few performers on our short list: Jake Armerding, Chuck Pyle, Buddy Mondlock and Tom Kimmel. We have been fortunate enough to have Jake once, and Chuck and Buddy twice. Finally, after 4 years of wishing, we are pleased to announce that Tom will join us on Wednesday August 19, 2009.

Tom Kimmel is one of those unique singer-songwriters whose heartfelt artistry with words and music is both genre-crossing and timeless. Since 1980, when his songs were recorded by Roger McGuinn & Chris Hillman (of Byrds fame) and Levon Helm (of The Band), dozens of his compositions have been covered by a host of major artists including Linda Ronstadt, Johnny Cash, Joe Cocker, Shawn Colvin, Waylon Jennings, the Stray Cats, Randy Travis and the Spinners. Tom’s unique ability to write songs that connect stems from his lifelong career as a touring performer.

Featured in motion pictures such as Runaway Bride, Serendipity, and Twins, and in television shows as varied as Captain Kangaroo, Miami Vice and Touched By An Angel, recordings of Tom’s compositions have sold millions of copies around the world, achieving gold and platinum sales in many countries.

Here are some of Tom's songs you may know:
"Poetic Justice" (co-written with Grey Haven star Buddy Mondlock)
"Never Saw Blue Like That" (recorded by Shawn Colvin, featured in "Runaway Bride")
"That's What I Love About the Rain"

Grey Haven is an intimate concert setting in beautiful Big Cottonwood Canyon near Salt Lake City, UT. Come join us for an evening with Tom Kimmel, Wednesday August 19, 2009. $15, all proceeds go to the artist.

Directions to Grey Haven:
Grey Haven is located in Big Cottonwood Canyon just 30 minutes from Salt Lake. Drive up the canyon 11 miles (towards Brighton and Solitude ski resorts), then turn left onto the side access road. (There is a bank of mailboxes on the right. If you reach the Silver Fork Lodge you've gone to far, but only a little.) Follow the access road as it turns sharply right. Go past the three garages on the left. (Mind the "Don't Even THINK About Parking Here" signs--the neighbor really means it.) Grey Haven is the gray A-frame on the left. Parking is limited at the cabin. If needed, you can park on the main canyon road and walk up the access road--it's not too far.

Chuck Pyle Returns to Greyhaven

An Evening at Greyhaven

with

Chuck Pyle

at our cabin in Big Cottonwood Canyon

Friday, October 17, 2008

Singer/songwriter Chuck Pyle has won the unqualified respect & praise of peers and fans for 30 years. Referred to affectionately as the Zen Cowboy, Pyle wraps his infectiously hummable melodies with straight-from-the-saddle poetry, quoting bumper stickers, proverbs, world leaders and old cowboys at his shows. An accomplished songwriter, Pyle's songs have been recorded by John Denver, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Suzy Bogguss, Chris LeDoux and Jerry Jeff Walker. But there’s nothing like hearing the guy who wrote them sing them. His flair for words and melody has made him a favorite of Bill & Melinda Gates, who've had him play at their house.

As always, it was a wonderful evening of music, poetry and humor, as Chuck performed many old favorites and some new ones, including Sedona Ramona, A Time To Decide/Endless Days, Cheap Little Ring ("I cried all the way to Utah..."), Keep It Simple, Step By Step, Other Side Of The Hill. After a standing ovation, Chuck concluded with Lay This Old Guitar Down (by request).

Thanks to all who came, and especially to Chuck who made this a wonderful and memorable evening!

An Evening at Greyhaven

with
Buddy Mondlock
September 21, 2008

Buddy's return to Greyhaven was anxiously awaited by those he heard him at Greyhaven in 2006. And they were not disappointed. Buddy, who has written and published 200 songs, sang 20 of them to a full house, interspersed with stories and poetry. Songs performed included The Kid, Coming Down In The Rain, Poetic Justice, Westbound Fast Lane, New Jersey Sunset, Mud, Sara Kills The Day, No Choice... Once again, the legendary Buddy Mondlock gave us an evening to remember! Thanks to all who came, who brought treats, and enjoyed the music. And a special thanks to Buddy for another wonderful night of music at Greyhaven!

About Buddy

Buddy Mondlock writes songs. He does it so well that
some great songwriters have recorded his songs on
their own albums. Guy Clark, Nanci Griffith, David Wilcox,
Joan Baez and Janis Ian, to name just a few. But there’s
nothing like hearing the guy who wrote ‘em sing ‘em. He’s
not going to pin your ears back with those songs. He’s going
to draw you into his world. Where a single snowflake follows
the trajectory of a relationship, where you get your pocket
picked by a Roman cat, where you might swim over the edge
of the world if you’re not careful and where dreams that
don’t come true still count. And it can all be happening in a
little folk club or on a stage by a grassy hill or in someone’s
living room or in the Royal Albert Hall.
