| Lonnie Field and Walt Dabell
have been playing off and on together as Sand Creek
(otherwise known as "The Creek") for over
19 years. Individually, they are each talented singer-songwriters.
More recently, John Kidd has entered the group to
round out this trio. Together, their individual musical
talents blend and enhance each other to create a truly
unique sound and experience..
Sand Creek has one recording out so far, "Woodstove
Blues", which made its debut at the 1995 Delaware
Friends of Folk - Fall Fling. They are currently working
on their second release due out sometime...
Warm, intimate, funny, and in-your-face original
songs, together with spirited guitar picking, and
melt-in-your-mouth harmonies make this trio a "must
see"! Lonnie and Walt have an incredible talent
for writing songs with a mixture of humor and satire
from real life experiences. Some of their songs will
hit close to home. Others will take you far away.
All are sure to give you a new way to look at the
world.
Sand Creek's music is a mix of Contemporary Folk,
Blues, Bluegrass, Country, and Rock. Influences on
their music style have come from a broad range. From
Steve Goodman and John Prine, to Johnny Cash and Willie
Nelson, to Deep Purple and Lynyrd Skynyrd. Their repertoire
contains great original compositions in addition to
numerous cover tunes by Jimmy Buffett, John Prine,
America, The Band, The Grateful Dead, Bruce Springsteen,
Bob Seger, Marshall Tucker, Tom Waites, Bob Dylan,
Warren Zevon, Hank Williams, Bellemy Brothers, Woodie
Guthrie, and many more.
Sand Creek has played a wide variety of venues over
the years, from the Delaware beaches and Chesapeake
Bay to Newark and Wilmington in State Park concerts,
folk festivals, coffee houses, marinas, pubs and restaurants.
Sand Creek was one of the headliners in the 2001 Delaware
Folk Festival and more recently was a featured act
at the 2002 "Tie Dye Festival" in Adams
Tennessee.
