My long-time friend Barbie Angell interviewed me for a new video series called Lingua Musica. It was a good conversation, sitting by Lake Susan in Montreat, NC, and she just wrote to tell me the interview had gone live…
A Bend in the Path
As I write, the window is open, letting the sticky summer air of Carolina drift in, disturbed by a ceiling fan stirring it around to keep me comfortable. Sounds fall in that window as well — birds chirping and the low swell of the occasional car passing by. I took Mason to the diner across […]
My friend Edward
I was honored to play at a benefit concert for my buddy Edward Chapman Thursday night in Asheville, and it’s strange to see myself on Fox News… Edward was exonerated three years ago for a double murder. He spent fifteen years in prison, including thirteen on death row. He was the victim of suppression on […]
new web site!
Hi friends, I’m thrilled to announce that three months of work is finally done, and there is a new davidlamotte.com. You’ll notice quite a few new and different things on this site, and I hope you’ll enjoy poking around (please drop a note in the Guestbook to let us know what you think). There’s an […]
Some really old news…
While digging around for some content for this spiffy new web site, I came across a collection of some of my oldest blogs. I discovered recently that I started blogging just a few weeks before the word “weblog,” from which “blog” is derived, was ever used. Apparently, I was a proto-blogger. If you’re really stuck […]
Down Under in March
I’m very much looking forward to getting back down to Australia in mid-March. I’ve been invited to speak at a Rotary conference in the nation’s capitol, Canberra, and will go down a few days early in order to get back to Brisbane for a visit there, and possibly a concert as well. It will be […]
Mason and David – the reunion tour
David’s toddler Mason joined him on stage at the Grey Eagle in Asheville to sing David’s children’s song SS Bathtub.
Rosa Parks and me (and you)
Wednesday was the fifty-fifth anniversary of Rosa Parks’ arrest. That event is a powerful reminder for me, not of the power of heroism, but of the power of day in and day out activism. For most of us, Rosa Parks’ life was one day long. Her real story is usually edited to fit our prevailing […]
Hair Changing 101
It’s been some time since I’ve checked in, and much has happened in the meantime. I’ve finished the second semester of my Masters program, Mason turned one, I’ve made trips to Newcastle and Canberra for Rotary, friends have visited from the U.S. and New Zealand, and yesterday Deanna had her thirty-fifth birthday, just to name […]
Police Covers
On my most recent record, Change, I covered a song by the Police, Walking In Your Footsteps. I was just alerted to a cover song blog that featured that track in a collection of Police covers, and another that features Police and Sting covers by folk artists specifically (that site didn’t feature my track, but […]
