| Comments: | Hello, and Happy New Year! Eve, I saw you play live like 6 or 7 years ago at an event out by Miramar. I can remember saying to myself, this is amazing. I am a friend of Jim Soldi's. I used to take lessons at his shop, and go to church with him. I even got the honor of playing with him for a while at church. He taught me so much. But even more, Jim always treated me like famliy. I always felt like I was being mentored, and befriended.
I would love to see you all if you came to Texas! And I would love to contact Jim if that is possible. You guys are truly wonderful live, I have seen it. God's richest blessings on all of you this year! John Shmelinski guitar player and student of music for life. |

I listen to more Eve Selis than any other music right now and thats because the songs you all play and write lift me up. Love Is On Your Side and It's a Beautiful Day are guaranteed feel good songs. Thank you all for being so faithful to what God has purposed for your life. I listen everyday and see you 3-4 times a year and spread the word. Thanks, God bless, and Merry Christmas! Chris |

| Comments: | We received this email and I wanted to share it with you.
October 28Th, 2007 TO ALL those involved with the 'Back to the Garden' amazing evening... What can someone say that hasn’t already been said … ? Lots! You were ALL so amazing last night … what a treat! I wanted you to know that while you all were complimenting us for showing-up … I was doing all I could, to stay seated, I wanted to jump-up and share … “It is ALL of US that should be acknowledging our gratitude to you!” As you know, in this past week lives have been tragically lost, people have been hurt, homes with peoples personal treasures were burnt to the ground, thousands of our precious community and animals are displaced from the comfort of their own beds, beautiful San Diego (our home) as we know it was engulfed in ash, smoke and debris from the ferocious fire & winds, and to bluntly say, “We ALL needed a freakin’ break!” All this continuous chatter from the warranted, yet appreciated uninterrupted news coverage, to those we know, the horror stories, all we witnessed, endless ash clean-up, things canceled, businesses closed, schools closed, beautiful San Diego justifiably shutting down. Honestly all this emotional drainage has deprived ALL of us from enjoying anything in these past many days and nights. Then there was last night… Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh reprieve! At last an opportunity to laugh out loud, sing out loud, enjoy ourselves enormously with great friends and family. You brought us back to when we were all a little (or a lot – in some cases) healthier, younger and mercifully back to a time when EVERYONE we LOVED was still alive! What fun… What camaraderie… What fantastic music … What an opportunity you created for everyone to simply have a safe and comfortable place to just be … We applaud you ALL .. ! Thank you for not canceling and sharing with all of us, your GIFT! You were all, “The light at the end of a very dark tunnel” Love and thankfulness to you all, Eileen & Matt Hallett Cynthia Donatelly, Steve Lomas, Patty Montgomery, Barbara & Dan Lorenz |

All y'all out there ought to know that Eve was the only person of the better sex out there that night. We wanted more! All the other music was great, too, by the way....... :)
Hope you got to meet all the other singers and musicians, especially B.B himself. Diane and I will see you three plus at least Sharon and Rick, I believe, at the October 27th CSN&Y wingding. Can't wait! Take care, Andrew and Diane Stoecker |

Stumbled upon your site while promoting an Americana artist (Trevor Mcshane = www.trevormcshane.net). It's a great site - Very interesting and well laid out! I'm going to ge coming back often. With a site this awesome your music must be awesome as well...I'm going to visit a bit later when I can listen intently to the music as well. If you get a chance to visit Trevor's site I'm sure he'd appreciate your signing his guest book. Be back soon - I'm still on the clock out here in the West. Best, Greg |

Then a friend of mine Helen, sort of led by the hand to some fabulous artists. I must say from what I've heard I have just found a favorite! I LOVE IT! I absolutely loved the ballad of kate morgan, your version of steve earle's taneytown...and loved the rest of the free downloads! I really just can't say enough how thrilled I am to have found your music!

I met Chrissy and Rick - Blackheart -also known as The Blackhearts.....at Tia's Leicester gig (reminds me Tia and Tommy seem really happy and were asking after you....we had a pm together up here then Dave and drove down to Leicester....just for a change I cried when it was all over!! Have you heard the new album? It's awesome...her best yet. Everyone else looking at this go to www.tiamcgraff.com or find her on myspace..or go listen on cd baby. sure eve won't mind a little plug for them there...I'll plug eve on their chat board thing in exchange!! anyway so met Chrissy and Rick and wanted you guys to know they were singing your praises. They and I hit it off - Chrissy and I are practically the same age and we all love so many similar people musically - and have you, tia and Lisa o'kane in common so kinda funny how these things happen! Anyway, again for anyone not familiar look them up on my space or on mightyquinnmanagement.com there is a link to their site. Another shamless plug but Eve knows how talented they are and how beautiful a voice Chrissy has. Now - how awesome if we could see all 4 of you together!!!!!! anyway guys again just wanted you to know you'd been mentioned by them and Tia. Hugs Hellie xoxoxox |

| Comments: | Hey Eve/ Marc.
Just thought I'd check in, say hi see how all are doing? I'm still jet lagged after an amaziong week in Dallas TX - I think TX may be my favourite state - despite KLM/ NW shredding my lugggage on the way out. EVerything was either wrecked, lost of filthy - gutted. KLM aere gonna wish they'd nerver touched my case by time I finished! I'll send photos to show you for a laugh - it's kinda funny now - you know how it reaches that point? Sadly my Eve tank top was one that went missing - can you point me as to how to replace it if indeed there are any black - medium ones left........maybe you could email and let me know... We went out to Fort Worth which was magic, Austin - way betgter fri than the sun we were there last time and wanna go back when music on now - and to Shrfeveport LA - worth it just for outlet mall, view of river and to taste real cajun food!!! Not much else to report really... just hate being back in blighty - so please give the usa my love and tell it I'll see it soon. Speaking of, when can we expect to see you guys in 08? Give each other a hug for me and make sure Henry gets a big UK cuddle.....;=) LOve, Helen xoxoxo PS marc d you know, it's taken 6 months but I fina;;ly clicked as to the reelvance of the comment you wrote in the poster, which is on my bedroom door! You wrote 'At Helen's cheers marc, then eve wrote love Eve' I was like 'at helen's???' all this time, then twigged above that it says 'appearing' hahahaahah how dim am I???!!!! |

Do you remember I met you, Marc, and Jim at the Basement in Chelmsford on the last night of your tour in England on Sunday 18th February. What a great night that was. I will always remember the genuine concern you showed regarding the death of my brother, and the dedication of your last song to me as a tribute to him is a memory that will live with me forever.I am really looking forward to hearing your new album when it is finished and released, especially that song. Give my regards to Marc and Jim, and I hope that it will not be to long before you all grace these shores again. Love from Colin xx

I started listening to Eve Selis back in the old mp3.com days when we created our stations and the artists would be ranked (and paid!) based on the number of plays.

Thanks for the message and update.I thought this had gone down as messages weren't showing up.... Short confinement - you're not kidding - she's a feisty one!!! I'm glad she and little Henry are well (what happened to him being Ethan, pray tell) Well, life has been very up and down here - more downs than ups recently - but you know thet's where the gift of great music really finds its place in our lives I believe. It connects and brings us through the other side. Please thank Eve for reminding me that sunmmer is coming and every day is a 'beautiful day' whatever else might be going on - and the stones as always are a big comfort! Anyway, take care, love and hugs to Eve and Henry. Much love across the big pond (though music definitely makes it smaller!) Helen xoxoxo |

My wife and I were looking at your website last night and it's great fun! You must log onto our Message Boards and go to Larry's Hot Pants Lounge where I'm sure you'd enjoy chiming in ... No baby yet as of this writing but I'll keep everyone posted ... see you in 2008. |

Next thing I know I`m at the Sage with my wife to see you all again - I`ve NEVER been motivated to see anyone twice on the same tour - and I don`t like Country music.
I `ve just got back from Mexico and Arizona where I bought a black `72 re-issue Telecaster with a heap of twang in it! What is going on? Seriously - loved the slide guitar in Tear this old house down - more please!!! The interaction of styles between Marc and Cactus Jim was electrifying - Rocking live album please now!!!!!!!!!!

| Comments: | You just know that you have been treated to something very special when it’s still playing in your ears the following day.
That last night of Eve’s 3 week UK Tour, which culminated at the Basement Club in Chelmsford on Sunday evening, was that special night. An audience, for some of whom a first time, were captivated by the aura of Eve and the dazzling guitar work, and musicianship of Marc and Jim, her ‘Men in Black’. Make no mistake Eve’s ability to connect with the audience, far more than stage presence, which she has in abundance, and her stunning vocals make her more than a match for many of her higher profile contempories. Gathered round the performers, the audience were privileged to be part of a performance, which surpasses what’s achievable at larger less intimate venues. Liken it to playing in your front room, for you, your friends and anyone who shares the same passion in live music. The rapport and the approachability make it special. There was something for all, from inviting the excellent Society back to play alongside, the special requests, and the personal dedication of the brilliant last number to Colin. When a performance elevates those watching onto that higher level you can’t help but wonder – surely it does not get any better. With these guys, the answer is invariably ‘Yes’, next time. Everyone hopes it won’t be too long before a new project is completed (like the live acoustic) and Eve and Marc, Jim and the hopefully the band are again touring the UK. We love Eve and wish her well over the coming months. |

| Comments: | Hi Eve, Marc & Jim, great to see you again at the Musician last night, *always* love that venue as it's where we first met back in 2003 :-)
Glad you liked the chocolates (all two of them..!) Sorry it's going to be such a long wait to see you again next year, but I'll do my best to get over to San Diego later in the year, it's been a while so a trip is long overdue..! Ivor |

| Comments: | Thank you for a fabulous show at The Sage in Gateshead last night and then signing a couple of CDs after the show.
I can't believe how powerful your voice was in the live setting - blown away by it. A big thanks to the boys in the band as well. Those guys really can play up a storm with two acoustic guitars. The Brits awards are on tonight and the three of you have more talent than all tonights ward winners could ever dream of. Good luck with the baby and hope to see you soon. |

| Comments: | Went to The Sage last night with my wonderful wife Teresa to see Eve for the very first time. I'd heard so many good things about her and had missed her last year at the outdoor festival.
That she was everything everyone said she would be is almost an understatement! A wonderful singer and stage prescence and a nice gal to boot! What a great night we had. Many thanks to Eve and the boys, Cactus Jim and Mark were brilliant as well. Oh and good luck with the baby!!!! Jeff - 14/2/07 |

| Comments: | I was hooked after seeing Eve and the now ‘Men in Black’ for the first time back in 2003 at the 100 Club in London. Since then, I have taken every opportunity to see them play on their frequent visits to the UK both as an acoustic trio and with their full band.
You cannot but admire the way Eve Selis has grown her UK fan base by playing Summer Festivals and touring up and down the country, their crusade championed by the great Bob Harris and likes of Maverick magazine. Now on the radar but by no means where their music and talent deserve, Eve and Marc have a long overdue live CD. This double CD was recorded live at the Seaside Church Auditorium, 1613 Lake Drive, Ecinitas, CA, on Saturday February 25, 2006 and celebrates 15 years of Eve and Marc making music. It is an anthology containing 19 songs written by Eve and Marc, 3 of which were co- written with Kim McLean This is one of the most authentic and natural sounding live recordings you will ever hear. It is completely live, mixed live with no overdubs or post mixing and proves a big production budget is no substitute for talented musicians and a superb sound mix by sound engineer Jon Edwards. Fittingly, most of the first set is Eve and Marc, voice and acoustic guitar, playing some of their earliest songs and sharing with the audience snippets of how the songs were conceived and developed. The close microphoned recording revealing all the nuances of Marc’s exquisite playing. Marc recalls the very first tour with Eve in 1991 was as a late stand in guitarist. A sixteen-hour flight to Madrid, at the time of the first Gulf War, found them performing a Valentines Day concert to military personnel followed by an uncomfortable night sleeping on stage. The next morning before catching the bus to Zaragoza, Marc recounts waking up to hear the voice of an Angel, somewhat surprised, discovers it was Eve. From that moment on he knew he had to ‘seal the deal’ and the rest as they say is history. The first song they wrote together was Prayer for You. They share how it was subsequently reworked into Let Love Come Through. In fact, the final bonus track on the CD2 is a full-length demo of Prayer for You from 1991. Worthy of the CD on its own, this rocks reminisant of an early Maria McKee/Lone Justice number. Towards the end of the first CD the band are individually introduced on stage. We hear how the brilliant Sharon Whyte persuaded her husband out of semi retirement to take second guitar. With Cactus Jim now on the scene Marc had to raise his game. Without doubt these are two of the finest guitarists you will come across in any music genre. There are plenty more snippets to hear so get to a concert and buy this CD - you wont be disappointed. |

| Comments: | A wonderful gig at the Maze Nottingham last week. Tremendous guitar playing and singing by Marc and Jim too.I loved the way you added expression to the songs by your hand movements and facial expressions. Reminded me of Dusty Springfield, and it was therefore a bonus that you did a version of "Son of a Preacher Man". Will try and see you a second time next week in York or Leicester. Perhaps on your next tour you could play in Sheffield: the Memorial Hall is a great venue for Ameicana artists. |

wonder if you could work on this! saw you last july at the americana day in gateshead, and got pic, signed album too. i was really blown away with your music, and so wanted to see you when you were next over. but i see that none of your gigs are in scotland. its 200 miles from here to newcastle and thats the closest one. americana/alt country is populaar here, thers a couple of radio shows playin exactly that, and artists do play edinburgh , glasgow, and even a smaller place in perthshire, which attracts a number of well known names. bob harris is listened to in scotland too, and im disapointed i wont see you. wonderin if you can hav a word with those concerned and fit a scottish show in next time......? all the best gary |

| Comments: | Hey
Eve, was going to write it down and forgot.... to get from celsius to farenheit you double it and add thirty. The acurate conversion for 0c is 32 f but that method is accurate to within 2 degrees or less and I always live with it. 10 c works out about 50.0001 id done with online converter and that mehtod would get to 50 so..... that means if it was 3 c when we came out of Band Room at 12am it was 36 f. Using online converter it was 37.4..so again pretty accurate. This is the more complicated way..but helloooo? I don't carry a calculator in my bag, does anyone else? And if you did could you really bothered for 2 degrees? To convert Fahrenheit temperatures into Celsius: Begin by subtracting 32 from the Fahrenheit number. Divide the answer by 9. Then multiply that answer by 5. Here's an example: Change 95 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius: 95 minus 32 is 63. Then, 63 divided by 9 is 7. Finally, 7 times 5 is 35 degrees Celsius. Time to go to the beach! To convert Celsius temperatures into Fahrenheit: Begin by multiplying the Celsius temperature by 9. Divide the answer by 5. Now add 32. Here's an example: Change 20 degrees Celsius to Fahrenheit: 20 times 9 is 180. Then 180 divided by 5 is 36. Finally, 36 plus 32 is 68 degrees Fahrenheit. That would be a pretty comfortable outside temperature for taking a walk!! Obviously to get from farenheit to celsius you take away thirty and half it. Hope that all made sense and is useful. Oh and just to be sure...tomorrow is SUNDAY....all day .... ;=) (well actually today is Sunday now...) xoxox |

I must be really special..you posted that message twice LOL *laughs at own joke* (yes I know the men in white coats come when you do that!) Anyway David and I are safely back at mine...215am. Roads icy but otherwisde okay. My stomach played up and I felt sick most of way back but ok now. I also now know the way I;d have come was far more sensible than the Sat Nav.....LOL Thankyou to the three of you for an AMAZING night! Pure magic. Watching Eve work her magic on people less familiar with her music is a joy. When Eve smiled at me as she sang 'Angels and Eagles'(and I was singing it)...so glad that going on new Cd by the way! - and looked at me as she sang it, for a moment it was like we were singing it to each other - really cool! Thankyou for my two requests too...made me feel really special and loved! Catching up after was lovely....as were the hugs. Eve you are 100% forgiven for not clicking on in car park earlier.... I just hope it somehow means as much as to you seeing familiar faces at gigs who care about you and who are delighted to see you and share your amazing music live, as it means to us getting to see you live and that you care enough to chat after. Eve, I was thinking about the stones....I don't think they'll guide you home, they'll guide you back to the NE area every time you're in the UK! Hope you find somewhere good for dinner on 13th - I'm sure you will...... See you at Sage...look for us in the front row and we'll come say hi after. Save a hug! Take care, stay safe, try not to get lost (but if you do, remember 'to know where you're you're going, you gotta know where you've been) (Eve and I had a long chat about that line) and see the ummmm 4 of you....in 10 days. Hugs Helen xoxoxoxox (ps...Eve, what was it I wasn't supposed to mention ...?.....;=) x) |

See you in a few days. Cheers, Marc |

| Comments: | Hey Marc and Eve,
Well it is a shame you don't have longer as South Shields where I live is the curry capital of the North East - Tia and Tommy got to try one out with me in July! The main road between the town and the beach has at least 16 curry houses along it. Let's think...Curries in Gateshead/ Newcastle: if you cross over the Milennium bridge to the Newcastle side and walk up the bank towards the city (under the railway arch)there are a couple on the bank...the one on the right as you go up is the nicest - I forget it's name.(chicken Tikka Jalfrezi would be my pick there with onion pilau) There is also a gorgeous Japanese restaurant in Stowell Street - Chinatown..in the middle of the Chinese restaurants..haven't been in long time but for all I don't do sushi..their beef with onions is out of this world. Apparently their sushi is phenomenal too. There is a lovely Tapas restaurant right oppsoite the Sage practically, over the Bridge called La Tasca and if you go up the same road I directed for the Indian there is a gorgeous Italian you can't miss on the corner - it's an old bank building - (I can highly recommend the Pizza Monza with extra goats cheese, parma ham, olives and chilli!)) and opposite is Marco Polo which is nice too. if it's curry you're set on this might help too: http://www.restaurants.co.uk/htmlpages/Tyne_and_Wear/Newcastle_upon_Tyne/Indian.htm http://www.restaurants.co.uk/htmlpages/Tyne_and_Wear/Gateshead/Indian.htm Hope that helps see you in Farndale...can't wait!

It just screamed your name! The Video link is AWESOME - I'd have loved to be there...you HAVE to record that song......it is the best Christmas song I have heard bar none! The modernisation works soooo well. I have just tonight watched your DVD which you may recall my Dad had you sign Merry Christmasin July so they could keep it as a gift...it is WONDERFUL! I believe in angels too. I had a teacher at primary school..I was 8..who was a nun..she always said..if you;re stuck or lost, ask you angel....I still talk to mine now...ASk Tia about her angel story one day too. Well, hope you had a good Christmas, and that you have a wonderful new year..I started a new job 3 weeks ago and am feeling very positive about 2007....and knowing there is wonderful live music to look forward makes it even better so thankyou for that!

| Comments: | Hi Eve! I had the pleasure of accompanying a friend to my first ever house concert on Saturday, December 9th. I had no clue what to expect and what a surprise I received! You are absolutely amazing! All the way home I kept commenting what an incredible voice you have, how beautiful you are and that your spirit glows such a warm, radiant light that one can't help but feel at ease. It has been quite a while since I've heard an artist that is so soulful that his/her heart shines through. No wonder you have such a following! I can't wait to see you again =)
May God continue to bless you and use you as one of his angels on Earth! Warmly Michelle P.S. When is your next album coming out? Needless to say I bought all that was at the concert and it only left me wanting more. You sang one song about friends and how one day the one friend will finally realize that his heart has been stolen by the person he has called his friend for so many years. What is the name of this song? I'm dying to hear it again. |

Hi, my husband and I met you at a charity event in Rancho Sante Fe. if you remember us our child is the one who had leukemia, I am the one with the heartshaped tattoo and I own a store on the 101 called It's a Luv thing. Like you I am trying to make a difference and trying to share the "luv is the answer" philosophy. Each month I pick a charity and give 10% of sales to that charity. oct obviously is breast cancer, nov and dec will be adopt a family for oncology patients of childrens hospital. Anyway, i would love to have you ocme by the store and buff you out in some "luv thing" clothes. We have a girls night out wine and cheese party on October 19th from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. benefiting breast cancer. Shoppping, girl time and a silent auction. We usually have close to 100 women. All fans of yours of course. Of course I would be so honored if you dropped by. (we even have a garden stage) Keep up the amazing work. Kamie Archinal 760 271 6473 |

| Comments: | Hi Eve and gang,
I wanted to post this to share it with you and anyone else who may wish to read it....I have written a few reviews of local gigs for Maverick magazine now. I do it simply as I love live music...and I want to help the really good acts with more exposure! I enjoy writing them too of course! This is the one I wrote for the Sage Americana festival...guess whose performance was the highlight of my weekend...I just hope you feel I've done you justice..I've also heard good news in relation to Feb..when will dates be out and did you say that would be more acoustic? if you'd like a scan of the actual review from October's (the current) Maverick, drop me an email..I'll happily email or mail you one and some of the photographs. Look forward to Feb..and writing another! Love across the pond.. Helen X The Sage Gateshead Americana Festival July 22-23rd 2006 This weekend was very exciting, not just for me but for many lovers of Americana and country music here in the North East. To me it symbolised a huge turnaround…that after years of being left off the map, suddenly we are an area where quite rightly American music artists want to perform, and there is no shortage of music venues, with The Live Theatre, The Cluny, All Saints Church and others in Newcastle and The Little Theatre and the stunning new Sage on Gateshead Quayside. The Sage was primarily responsible for this spectacular event, held in the Performance Square directly outside of the building, with stunning views, commented on by many performers, over the River Tyne, the Millennium Bridge and the Baltic Arts Centre, and across to the Newcastle side of the Quayside, whose recent transformation along with the Gateshead side has provided the North East with something of which to be truly proud. There was even an arrangement with independently run Tyneside Cinema to show American country classics such as ‘Walk The Line,’ ‘O Brother Where Art Thou’ and ‘Nashville’ as a limited Americana programme. The Sage was featuring ticketed events also by such greats as Solomon Burke, Guy Clark, Giant Sand, Adem, Joan as Policewoman, and the three which I had the great pleasure of attending; Thea Gilmore, Dwight Yoakam supported by Tift Merritt and the great Emmylou Harris, supported by Jon Randall. To get artists of their calibre is clearly a huge coup and testament to the commitment to music of the Sage Gateshead. The weather this weekend for once did us proud and enhanced the atmosphere tenfold, everyone was in high spirits and out to see the best music had to offer for two whole days whilst basking under the sunshine. The organisation was second to none all weekend, each artist allocated a 45 minute time slot and everything ran incredibly smoothly. American themed snacks such as nachos and margheritas abounded from stalls around the stage and the music flowed….. The Saturday began in the absence of Juliet Turner which was a shame, with Beaver Nelson and friends, followed by Martin Stephenson and the Toerags, both of whom got things off to a toe tapping start. Next up was South Wales band The Storys, whose music I had actually been introduced to through Tia McGraff. A thoroughly enjoyable set followed, including several tracks from their self titled CD, including ‘I Believe in You,’ ‘Be by Your Side,’ and perhaps lesser known ‘Journey’s End.’ The Storys, fronted by lead man, Steve Balsamo have already heralded comparisons with such greats as The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac. I for one am already looking forward to their return to the North East in September. Having heard a great deal about Stacey Earle and Mark Stuart I was looking forward to seeing their set. Stacey reminded me of a younger Nanci Griffith in more ways than once, and they really shone when performing songs which showed off their harmonies. Saturday’s highlight for me came in the form of The Greencards, an Austin, Texas based bluegrass band comprising members from Australia and the UK. In all honesty I have never been a great fan of bluegrass but this group could well have changed my view. They clearly enjoy performing so much and wowed the audience with tracks such as the achingly beautiful ‘The Ghost of Who We Were,’ ‘Weather and Water,’ ‘What You Are’ and ‘Almost Home.’ Sunday commenced with a soul tinged session from Jeb Loy Nichols followed by Ukelele Allstars who I am assured performed a lively set. However I missed this one as my friend and I decided to head inside to check out one of the events in the aptly titled Americana Lounge, which over the weekend was hosting workshops with Otis Gibbs, and American themed films. Having been to Montana and Wyoming back in 2003, and fallen in, love with the area, I decided I wanted to hear Cowboy Poet Wallace McRae, read some poetry and talk about his life on the ranch. The stories he told of his life rang so true and were told with such humour everyone quickly warmed to him. As he talked of the battlefield of Custer’s last Stand and ranch life, I was transported back to that area. Then he treated us to a recitation of one of his most requested poems ‘Reincarnation.’ On talking to the man himself afterwards, it emerged that en route to Mount Rushmore I’d have been within 20 miles of his land…..small world indeed. Information about his poetry can be found at http://www.cowboypoetry.com/mcrae.htm Paul Kelly Duo from Australia was up next on the main stage outside playing a range of songs; some known, some less familiar. They were followed by Scottish group Aberfeldy who it seems are currently making a big name for themselves on the UK music scene with such songs as the intriguingly titled ‘Vegetarian Restaurant.’ Finally came the moment I have to confess I had been waiting for, having been told by both Tia McGraff and various friends how amazing Eve Selis is and having waited a long way for her to venture in our direction. So to be treated to a free performance by the lady herself, accompanied by her amazing band (Marc "Twang" Intravaia, ‘Cactus’ Jim Soldi and Sharon Whyte) was an opportunity to good to miss. The first thing that must be pointed out about this lady is how down to earth she is and the almost magical, certainly effortless way in which she connects with and engages her audience. From the second she bounded onto the stage and launched into the rockin’ ‘Mr Lincoln,’ I and those around me were held captivated by Eve’s performance. This she followed with ‘The Ballad of Kate Morgan,’ ‘Russellville,’ a wonderfully penned song about being lost, Kim Richey’s great song ‘Those words we said’ and a stirring version of the ballad ‘Pocket Full of Stones.’ Essentially this is a song about kindness and I am confident that I am not the only person who was moved to tears by it. Another highlight was ‘Do you Know Me?’ a song penned by Canadian singer Lisa Brokop and Eve’s long time collaborator Kim McLean (previously known as Kim Patton-Johnston) about how there are angels all around us and we just have to learn to recognise them. What most strikes you about Eve’s performance is the sheer energy she exudes. It has been said of her ‘Eve Selis isn’t just a “singer” — she’s an emotion transducer who converts country, R&B, blues, folk, and rock ‘n’ roll signals into a megawatt zap that galvanizes everyone in its path.’ Using her own brand of roadhouse rock, her ‘lemonade and whisky voice’ as it has come to be known, finds its way to your very core and leaves you in awe at the experience. Eve is returning next year, both with and without her band, and I can virtually guarantee she has found a whole new audience here in the North East. Looking around, people were blown away by her performance and the queues to buy her CDs were the biggest I’d seen all weekend. Even she was amazed at the reaction to her music. Suffice to say for the sake of the music loving public and Americana music, I for one am hoping and praying that this festival will not only be repeated in 2007 but that it will become an annual event at the Sage Gateshead. I urge anyone who enjoyed it to pass that feedback to the Sage and to encourage them to follow this event up with another. Helen Mitchell, South Shields. |

| Comments: | Yo Marc,
Thanks, I had a blast. I should have been more clear. Pat is the only one who has been there every day from Day 1. Tom left in 1975 and was replaced by Michael McDonald (whatever happened to him anyway...) Tom later returned to the Doobie Brothers making Pat "the only member who has stuck with the band and continues to be the driving force behind the Doobie Brothers." |

| Comments: | Hi Anita .. thanks so much for the lovely recap of last night and it makes me feel almost like I was there .. hey wait a minute ...
We all had a great time and haven't met nicer people than the Doobies, but I need to correct you on one point - Tom Johnston is the other original member and is the composer/lead singer of Long Train Runnin', China Grove and Listen to the Music ... I'm sorry I missed the fun at the end with Eve on stage, but I was out buying much needed school supplies for my kids .. ahh the glamorous life of a rocker! Cheers, Marc |

| Comments: | just have to take a moment and share what happened last night with all of you who couldn't be there. I've been working with independent musicians for over 8 years now. Music is a brutal, brutal business. Let there be no doubt about that. But every now and then there are those nuggets of validation and acknowledgment. Last night was one of those times.
Eve and Marc and Jim opened for the Doobie Brothers at Humphrey's last night and blew the crowd away with their 30 minute set. Half way thru the Doobie Brothers show, Pat Simmons (the only original Doobie still with the group after 30+ years) stopped and thanked the crowd, what a great city San Diego is, etc etc. Then he said: "It's an honor for us to follow Eve Selis. We had the pleasure of seeing her perform last night at the Backstage Lounge. I've just discovered her and I don't understand why she's not a huge star in her own right. I don't get it. If there's a producer out there, you need to give her a contract." I'm paraphrasing but that was the gist of it. Later they invited Eve on stage to sing "Listen to the Music" with them as the finale. In all my concert going years, I've never seen an artist at that level effuse such praise on their opening act. Not only is Pat Simmons an Eve Selis fan, but his wife, Cris, became a big supporter. I was fortunate to meet her and pass along Eve's contact information. I tried to give her a copy of the Do You Know Me DVD but she insisted on paying for it and wouldn't accept the change either. Later, as I was watching the Doobies, she tapped me on the shoulder and pointed to the Eve Selis hat on her head. She never took it off. As many of you who already know me, know that I shout from the highest mountain top that NOBODY works harder than Eve Selis. And no one was more deserving of last night's accolades, kudos and praise than Eve Selis. Who knows what will come of it. We've all been at this too long to hold our collective breaths, but the Simmons were genuine and sincere in their heart felt praise and warmth. It was a dream come true for Eve to sing on stage with the Doobie Brothers. So richly deserved. It was an honor for me to be a part of it and a witness to it. An evening I will always treasure. -Anita |

| Comments: | What a wonderful evening at the UCP Benefit Concert on August 26, 2006 in Old Town, San Diego! Jessica Smith, Kimberly King, Eve Selis, and Kim McLean - such an awesome foursome! Then there was the world's greatest band and miracles happening before our very own eyes.......you can't get much better than that......until Eve gave Diane and I a "shout out" for our 18th anniversary.
I'm pretty much at a loss for words......... :) |

To make a long story short (and paraphrase some lines from one of your songs!) Amazing things happened on an ordinary day -- the Eve Selis Band performed to a colorful sunset at Scripps Birch Aquarium. p.s. And sang the "Four Leaf Clover" song. Thank you so much and I can't wait for the upcoming CD - please record soon. Love and peace - Robin |

| Comments: | hey Eve,
Just to say.....I have waited a long time for you guys to venture this way....and your set was the highlight of the Sage Americana Weekend at Newcastle/Gateshead. getting to speak to you beforehand and after was extra special...I guess due to your music and Tia telling me so much about you, I kind of felt like I'd met you before. You are just as lovely and down to earth as she said. Thankyou too for singing 'pocket full of stones' for me..it really meant a lot. PLEASE come back to this area SOON! I look forward to experiencing the magic again and cathing up with you.'Incidentally I was looking round during your set and you had the audience mesmerised. As for the queue for your Cds etc.....it ws the longest I'd seen all weekend..I'd say you have a great following up here now! I emailed you the pictures..hope they reached you..if not shout and I'll resend them. Take care, drop me a note when you get time and see you over here soon. Love across the pond Helen (if you happen to bump into Tia give her a hug for me....maybe she can give you one too....) PS A friend of mine had a baby girl a week ago..I haven't met her yet but she is beautiful...nothing to do with you as she hasn't heard your Cd but her name is Eve..they just loved the name..so I'm going to order them a copy of the CD and give Eve her own pocket full of stones.. (aswell as a proper baby present ) I just thought that would be something quite special..then when she's old enough she can hear what an amazing singer she shares her name with....hey maybe one day I'll be introducing you!) |

We had so many adventures this trip and as of this writing Eve is putting together a diary which will be filled with lots of laughs (we did our own driving so you can draw your own conclusions) as well as some photos, so keep an eye on the website and again thanks, or should I say, cheers! |

| Comments: | On Sunday the 23rd July I saw Eve Selis and her band for the first time and to say i was bowled over would be an understatement.It was one of the best live performances i have seen from a band in a long time-so much passion and energy.
I have advocated for a long time that music is therapy.and Eve and her band are one of the most therapeutic bands you could hear. I had the pleasure to meet Eve and Mark for the first time at Newcastle on that day it was an occassion i wont forget. Hurry back to Newcastle and stay for a while Take care and God Bless you all.

| Comments: | Ok, two shows to report on here, firstly the Musician in Leicester on Wednesday. I've always liked that venue, mainly due to the fact that it was where I first met Eve back in November 2003, on her first trip to the UK.
The opening band, the Loving Cup, were great and had some good songs. Then Eve did her usual amazing set, and coupled with the excellent real ale available made for a brilliant evening :-) On to Thursday, and the last show of my personal tour at the Broadway, Stourbridge. Only 30 miles from me, so the nearest one so far..! Also I think that it was the best of them this year, partly due to the fact I'd managed to get some friends to come along. I'd been raving about Eve to them for three years, so I think they came to see what I'd been going on about <g> They all promised to come back next year though, so Eve's magic worked yet again..! I must say something about Rosanna, my friend Colin's 9-year old granddaughter, who came along. I'd given her the "Do You Know Me" DVD for her birthday last year, as she and her family were unable to come to a show as they were away on holiday. She loves that song (I think she's almost worn out the DVD player..!) so I'd asked Eve beforehand if she would sing it for her, which she duly did, making a great evening brilliant :-) Thanks yet again, Eve, looking forward to next year already..!

To be perfectly honest we had never heard of you guys nor even heard your music before. You have to be dam GOOD for us to like everything you did. Its not very often that you like something first off.....things sometimes need a second hearing. Sound was great, lyrics etc etc the list goes on. The evening was perfect.
Only one criticism.........we wanted it to go on all night! Be safe and keep up the great work. THANK YOU !!! |

| Comments: | Hey Eve.
Caught you at the Komedia in Brighton on 13/7 and had a brilliant night. Loved your music (which was fairly new to us), your enthusiasm, your fantastic vocals and your band's superb musicianship - the dualin' guitars were just amazing. (Running out of superlatives here !). And what value too - the best 2x£9 we've ever spent - enjoyed ourselves more than after spending 2x£78 on U2 !! Were really pleased to have opportunity to chat to you afterwards too and get a signed CD - thanks for taking the time. Hope the rest of the tour goes well and that you'll be back soon. We'll watch for you and hope to see you again. All the best to all. Sharon & Jed. ps. Hope the back recovered ! |
