Neville's Quarter September News!

Hello friends,

We have a ton of great things happening with Neville's Quarter this month:

1. New Release = "Karma Who" written by our very own Lex Headley.

This song is about karma and how it always catches up to you in the end. In the song you can hear the pitter-patter of feet as the main character of the song tries to outrun karma. But the hunt is on and there is no escape.  The song title also pays homage to Lex's all time favorite show Doctor Who; making reference to timey-wimey elements and having a hero to set things right in the end, just like in the show.
(Fun fact: Lex used to be on a Podcast that reviewed Doctor Who episodes and comics, called The Doctor Who Show).

Buy it on CD Baby:

Spotify streaming will be available soon!


2. Neville's Quarter at Carrboro Music Festival

We are honored to be playing this festival for the 2nd year in a row! This year we will be on the Frank Cole Building Stage on the corner of Weaver Street and Center Street. Show time is 1 pm! We are psyched to see most of our musical friends playing around Carrboro this day. Speaking of which, there is a particular group of friends hosting a singalong that we plan to join at 4pm at the Carrboro City Hall building under the big oak tree! Come sing with us!

3. Shakori Hills Performance On The Meadow Stage

 

We still can't believe that we are doing this one! I guess dreams do come true if you work hard and don't take no for too permanent an answer.  We get the distinct honor of starting things off on the Main Stage (The Meadow Stage) at Shakori Hills on Friday October 5th at Noon!  As soon as we found out about this gig Brian had a vision of us playing at night time in front of hundreds of people under a full moon and so we wrote a brand new song called "Howling At The Moon." We can't wait to play it there and hope to see some familiar faces.

Bluegrass On My Mind

Howdy Folks!

We  woke up this morning with "Bluegrass" on our minds, so we wanted to share our lyrics and this playlist of tunes we put together.  We wrote one of our favorite recordings so far "Bluegrass On My Mind" as a tribute to some of our favorite bluegrass tunes. We took the titles of a bunch of our favorite songs and weaved them into this fun composition that includes tunes from many of the great bluegrass players of all time, including Bill Monroe, Toni Rice, Doc Watson, David Grisman, ect... We hope you enjoy our song "Bluegrass On My Mind" and the playlist as much as we do!

Lyrics Are Posted Below


These are the Lyrics:

Bluegrass on My Mind

By Neville's Quarter

C                                  F
I’m going down, down, down!
F                               C
To the Sweet Sunny South
C                                     G
To hear the Cuckoo Bird sing
G                                     C
A Foggy Mountain Breakdown
_______________________

& My Tennessee Stud

Left Footprints in the Snow

We’ll Have a Feast Here Tonight

If our Pastures of Plenty do grow
__________________________

I’m a Man of Constant Sorrow

Thinking about The Old Home Place

But the Sunny Side of the Mountain

Will put a smile upon your face
___________________________
Chorus

You are My Sunshine

I’m so Lonesome I could Cry

But I Keep on the Sunny Side

With Bluegrass on My Mind
___________________________

The Storms Are On The Ocean

& She’s Gone, Gone, Gone

I’ll Fly Away to a Shady Grove

While you sing your Hobo Song
__________________________

Make Me a Pallet on Your Floor

So I can Roll in My Sweet Baby’s Arms

This Train is Bound for Glory

Headin back to the Homestead on the Farm
____________________________

Across the Blueridge Mountains

Where the Soul of a Man Never Dies

I’m Sitting on Top of the World

Where This Little Light of Mine Will Shine
________________________________

Chorus

You are My Sunshine

I’m so Lonesome I could Cry

But I Keep on the Sunny Side

With Bluegrass on My Mind

_________________________________

Chorus

You are My Sunshine

I’m so Lonesome I could Cry

But I Keep on the Sunny Side

With Bluegrass on My Mind

The Weekly Neville's Quarter Acoustic Breakdown Update

Hello everyone.
New songs, check it out.

We added Front Country, Sam Bush, Bryan Sutton, Mary Gauthier, and The Way Down Wanderers to the playlist this Saturday morning. Respectively, their songs are "Sake of the Sound," "Play By Your Own Rules," "Chase The Moon," "Mercy Now," and "Heading North." 

The breakdown of the awesomtastic songs is below.

"Sake of the Sound"
By Front Country
This song will likely give you goosebumps. At first it draws you in, as powerfully as the smell of coffee in the morning. We suspect it has something to do with the rhythm... it's mesmerizing. The vocals are powerful and awesome. The words are all too appropriate. It's all about "the sound" and quite literally you'll love this song for "the sound." It's a bit ridiculous actually, how much the words of this song are just reflecting exactly what you're feeling while listening.

"Play By Your Own Rules"
By Sam Bush
Great folk feel to this song; it's old, authentic, and bursting with life.  Sam Bush is a legendary mandolin player in bluegrass circles. This is a song about making your own decisions and your own rules for how your life should go. We hope to possibly make it to Merle Fest, where he'll be playing this summer.

"Chase The Moon"
By Bryan Sutton
This is a great pairing with the previous Sam Bush song. Similar frantic, upbeat, running through the cornfields, feel. The song is actually sort of about that, the feeling that you can't stop chasing something. In this case, the thing they're chasing is a love they can't get. Must be maddening cuz this song just doesn't want to stop once you press play.

"Mercy Now"
By Mary Gauthier
The pace of our playlist goes way down, once this song starts playing. Mary is so relaxing to listen to; her voice is intimate and soulfully honest. This is such a sad song, about people she loves, people who are in trouble, people who carry tremendous stress, and who really could use some kindness and help. We like Mary and her compassionate sad song... it's really great music, check her out.

"Heading North"
By The Way Down Wanderers
We had to flip a coin on which Way Down Wanderers song we would use for the playlist this week, we were both so passionate about their songs. You will love their stuff too. This song's about traveling up North to be with someone whom they love and about their journey it takes to get there. There's lots to like about this song. If you're interested in hearing more check out the song Dead Birds; there is some really fun string instrumentals to listen to in that song.
