DAVID WALBURN: BLOG

Montana! Life Under The Big Sky is now an official program for the Glacier Park Centennial. With a generous grant for The Burlington Northern Santa Fe and The Glacier Fund, I will be performing this show for schools across Montana.
If you want your school involved, give me a call at 406-862-0037 or send an email at cabinsouth@centurytel.net.

I am once again out on the road leaving for some educational conferences. I am trying to get the word out to various schools that my American West Series is a great option to teach students about American History through the Arts. Oral History is the tradition of sharing events through storytelling and songs and lyrics. Right on!

SONG CLIP - ALL FOR GOOD
This is just a little musical project I finished when I was building our cabin at one of our favorite little fishing holes in Montana.

BIO:

MONTANA HAS A SOUND THAT IS ALL ITS OWN

If you have never been to the Big Sky Country, David’s music can take you there. His combination of words and music will help you see, hear and feel what he lives every day. David has a way of capturing the American West with his original songs and visual performances.

With his guitar, harmonica and original songs, David will tell stories about the early explorers of Lewis & Clark, the Native Americans, the wild frontiersmen, the lifestyle of the American West, and even his own adventures as an Alaskan Homesteader.

So if you find yourself traveling west, somewhere near Montana, you owe it to yourself to check out David’s live performances at the Many Glacier Hotel in Glacier National Park. It might mean exiting off the main highways and taking the back roads, but the trip and musical experience are definitely worth it. Or give him and call and have him bring a piece of the Big Sky to you and your special event.

You have asked and we have delivered!
Live shows via Podcasts - from the Many Glacier Hotel Summer 2008

I have also added the lyrics from many of the songs. I am working on a key tabs music, but haven't figured out how to do that yet?
I am still working on a busy school program this year, and getting ready to update some of my shows. So it will be a busy winter, and maybe I'll fit some skiing in there as well! See you on the trail.
Stay in touch ~ David

The trees are changing, the temperatures are dropping and the tourists are fading ~ time to head back over the Pass to my family in Whitefish.
This is my last full week at the historic Many Glacier Hotel for the 2007 season. I'll be comping the shows all week ~ so c'mon over and experience Glacier in September and listen to some Montana music while you're here!

I knew early on that I wasn’t made for a suit and tie while trading my time for money. So I have worked every job imaginable to keep a guitar in my hands and maintain my modest lifestyle. And through some of my experiences I’ve discovered that it’s the songs that find you rather than the other way around.
And I’ve got no desire to be on American Idol or American’s Most Wanted – just somewhere in between – waiting on that next song to shine through.
Thanks for your support! David

I just wanted to write a few words about the new album. I am hoping for a release by the first of summer. I will be heading down to Nashville to finalize the details with my producer, Pat McGrath. I am very excited about this album, this one gives me a chance to step away from the "themes" and just choose the songs that I love to play. I will send everyone an e-mail to let you all know when it is available.
Thanks again for all your support and I'll see you in Glacier Park this summer! - David

I am teaming up with Nashville producer and friend, Pat Mcgrath for my upcoming album. I will be in the studio Nov 20 - 21 to lay the framework and to meet the incredible musicians who are taking part of this project.
The album, Singing For A Living, won't be a themed album like my other ones. These will be a compiliation of songs that I have played but never recorded along with some new ones I have just recently written.
I am very excited - and hope this will be my best album to date.
If you want me to contact you when the CD is available - send me an e-mail.
Look for a release by late Spring 2007! - David

I closed up the cabin and headed back over the pass to the Flathead.
I can't wait to get back to my family!
I'm taking a little time off before I head back east. If you have any schools or venues that you want me to play at, let me know soon.
I'll be there OCT. 16 - 20.
It was a another fantastic season at Many Glacier and I want to thank everyone for their support, including the guests, Many Glacier Hotel staff and GPI administration.
Thank you!

If anyone actually reads these things, I want to let you know that I will be back east for some performances during Oct 16 - 20.
My wife tells me that there are a few more dates still open, so if you are interested in having me do a house concert or school program or a community event, please let JJ know as soon as possible. Our e-mail is now: cabinsouth@centurytel.net.
I will be in the Maryland - DC area.
Thanks! David

I first want to thank everyone for coming to my website, I apppreciate your comments and kind words!
This summer season has been rich with memorable experiences for me and my family and I have met many great people and even reacquainted with old friends. I hope I can continue entertaining and educating you and your families for many years at the awesome Many Glacier Hotel.

Red Eagle Fire in the St. Mary region was an amazing thing to witness this summer. We all were awed by the force and beauty of the flames as we watched from the roadside.

All shows are at 9:00
Tickets can be purchased at the door for $7.00 or in advance at 406-892-2525.
See you in Glacier!
