Episode #060 – “On Holiday”

We can see some sights
Talk for hours at cafes
If we stay up all night
We’ll siesta in the shade
Don’t plan for anything
Gonna ride the river’s flow
Down at the pub they know

Strolling along the shore
To see what we can find
Seashells and creatures from the brine
Anywhere we go is fine
We’ve got time
We’ve got time…..
We’re on holiday… (3x)
Follow the sun down to the sea

From “On Holiday”

Café talk was serious
We could not make sense of it
Didn’t matter to us
Anyway
The joy of red wine kisses
Your polka dot dresses
My army coat on the sand
Beside the bay

“A pair of soulful poets!”

— Charlie Walmsley

J Oscar Bittinger and Dan Bracken swap songs and do mini-sets where stories get woven into melodies in the tradition of American and Irish folk, rock and roots music. Some sound like poems, others like fables, one or two may bring a tear and still other songs might inspire a bit of dancing.

Sponsored by Inspiration Alcona this FREE Harbor Nights Concert provides a delightful setting on the lawn at Harbor Park overlooking Harrisville harbor.

Bring a lawn chair, or a blanket, and enjoy a couple hours of original story and song (…and perhaps do some singing along).

If weather is uncooperative, the Harbor Nights show will move to the Harrisville Branch of the Alcona County Library, 312 W. Main Street.

Episode #061 – “Hot Night”

High Summer
Too warm in the kitchen
To sit and listen to the radio
Night comin’
Wipe the sweat from your neck
That you get
Even when you’re moving slow

On a hot night
A hot night
A hot night like this

Birds flock to trees
Bees return to the hive
Working folk take the shady lane homeward
Gather at the table side
Glad to be…

Episode #067 – Take a Step with Me

Do they envy us
Little bride and groom atop the wedding cake
Faces and feet fixed
While we whirl all ‘round the place
Partners slide and glide
Touching, learning to trust
First steps feel unsteady
Never really ready enough
For us
And the changing days/ways of love

“Found secret towns
Swam in sacred lakes
I’ve seen the Milky Way and Northern Lights
Right in front of my face
I don’t know where I’m bound
Sometimes that brings me down
But there’s open sky I’ve found
With my feet on the ground
In Michigan”

Took her down to the quarry on my motorbike
Jumped in the water on a steamy night
We laugh and tease, talk out on the sand bar
Tells me ‘bout all the places she’s gone so far

Where she don’t fit in…
A small town sin
Loves her kin
But she ain’t like them
There’s no do doubt
She’s a diamond found
But she’ll get ground down in our hometown
She’ll be ground down in our home town

Episode #069 – When Summer Leaves Town

She leaves in September
And though I know that she’ll return

It moves in like a storm front
Blows the sand across your feet

Always something cooking in the kitchen
