A HUGE congratulations to Dinty Child on the release of his first solo record, Lucky Ones, today! If you're unfamiliar with the name, I can promise you know his music.
Dinty is a Boston area roots/folk legend — a band member with Laurie Sargent, Asa Brebner, Dennis Brennan, and Jenifer Jackson since the '80s; a forty-year frontman for the twenty-piece SE Mass party/mayhem band The Funky White Honkies; a multi-instrumental sideman to many folkies (Peter Mulvey, Kris Delmhorst, Rose Cousins, Ana Egge, Anais Mitchell…to name just a few); a twenty-year player with Chandler Travis Philharmonic; and has about forty shows opening for George Carlin under his belt. He's a founding member of Session Americana, and a co-founder of Miles of Music Camp, an international influence for the folk world.
Dinty has influenced every part of the folk music world in one way or another, and it's his time to shine. Congratulations, Dinty!

“Laura Cortese and I sat down to write together and I had the title phrase in my notebook. We talked for a bit and at some point, she started telling me a story about a mutual friend of ours and a time they were both at a party in Edinburgh, Scotland. Our friend was having a breakup conversation with his girlfriend in the States and had gone outside. He was gone so long, the hosts thought he had left along with everyone else, so they locked the doors and turned out the lights. Unfortunately, he had left his shoes inside and had to walk across the city as the sky started brightening to get home. This isn’t the first, or last, time a situation like this had happened to our friend, so we were imagining what was going through his (and her) head.” — Dinty Child

Dinty Child just announced a Kickstarter campaign with a goal of $9,000 to help fund the finishing touches of his debut solo album — including an all-star tour.
Where are most of the funds allocated? Bringing in the band who recorded on the album — dozens of musical friends from Rose Cousins, Isa Burke (of Lula Wiles), to singer/songwriter Josh Ritter and all of Dinty’s bandmates from Session Americana.
Dinty says, “Rose will be flying in from Nova Scotia, Isa from Toronto, and Lauren [Balthrop] from Nashville, and since its unlikely I’ll ever get this lineup together again, I’m hoping to do a video shoot of the Oberon show for posterity. Those plane tickets, musician’s pay, plus feeding and watering will cost a lot of money...far more than I can expect to take in at the door. That’s where you come in.”

Sometimes, life, love, and politics can seem overwhelming, but this rocker I wrote with Mark Erelli tells us that the world keeps turning, the sun keeps rising, and we will always get a chance to start over. It’s the lead-off track from my upcoming album ‘Lucky Ones’, can’t wait for you to hear it.
