Eight places left at my retreat — want to come?

I have been invited by others to lead retreats and conferences in many states and on several continents for many years, but I have never before designed my own event so that I can give people who come for the weekend the richest and most wonderful experience I can come up with. Until now. This […]

Box Sets back in stock

After a bit of time revising and updating the content on the USB box sets, we are happy to report that they are back in stock. These digital box sets contain… well, pretty much everything I’ve ever done.  High quality MP3 versions of all eleven CDs (including liner notes, and my very first recording, Barefoot, […]

The Three Davids Ride Again!

We had so much fun at our sold-out show in Asheville in February that we were all eager to book another one — but where to play next? Clearly, what we needed was a concert promoter named David. Happily, concert promoter David Sardinha is the curator of a wonderful concert series in Cary, North Carolina, an […]

The Three Davids @ Diana Wortham

I don’t know when I’ve been as excited about a concert as I am about this one. Last summer I was boarding a flight to Asheville from Atlanta, coming home from a show somewhere, when I spotted a familiar hat in the crowd boarding the plane.  I made my way over to greet my friend […]

Celebrating the new book!

I don’t think I’ve felt this excited, anxious and anticipatory since Mason was born! After four and a half years of writing, and a fairly intense year of editing, design and layout, my new book, Worldchanging 101, is in the proverbial oven, and about to be picked up by the proverbial stork (which has 18 […]

How to Clean Dirty Water with a Guitar

My newest guitar is a Taylor Holden Village GS Mini.  I love it for lots of reasons, not the least of which is where it came from — and where it’s going.  This little instrument is doing a lot of good in the world, and that good is not limited to the music being played […]

What I Learned From Pete Seeger

It’s late Monday night and I’m staying up by the wood stove trying to catch up on some work.  Or at least I was. My plans for the night just changed.  A few minutes ago I received a note from my friend Laura saying that Pete Seeger left us about an hour ago.  Apparently the […]

Not the same Auld Lang Syne

On New Year’s Eve, ringing in 2014, I was invited to play a few songs as part of a show organized by friend BJ Leiderman (of NPR theme song fame) at the White Horse in Black Mountain, NC. It was a fun night, with a broad variety of music and even some poetry. Mostly it […]

They’re here! They’re here! They’re here!

UPS brought the new ‘Best Of David LaMotte’ CDs to the door last night after dark (it was a long, impatient wait!), and today we will be mailing them out. We’re really excited about the new record around here.  It contains fourteen songs, including new versions of some older songs with talented guest musicians joining […]
