Byrnes Performing Ans Center, Saturday, Jan. 26 along with David Lanz. b Sarah Arne The Weekender Grhmmy Award winners Eric Tingstad and Nancy Rumbel have performed, recorded and toured together for more than 22 years and have 19 albums to their credit. Performing as many as 70 concerts a year, they are friends who enjoy each other's company and love making music. Tingstad performs Virtuoso American finger-style guitar and Rumbel uses woodwind instruments to create beautiful melodies inspired by music from across America, Asia, isles- I Tingstad and Rumbel began their collaboration in 1985. Their debut album, “The Gift," quickly became a holiday classic. In 1998, “American Acoustic” was honored as “Acoustic Instrumental Album of the Year" and in 2003 they received a Grammy Award for “Acoustic Garden." While Tingstad hales from Seat— tle, Rumbel grew up in San Antonio and studied at Northwestern Uni- versity where she was influenced by new styles of music and intrigued by ethnomusicology which led her to the Paul Winter Consort. Togstad attended Western Washington University where he was trained in the Segovian classic guitar tradition. He is a product of influences as diverse as Led Zeppe- lin, Hawaiian slack-key guitar, Ravi Shanker and Martin Denny. While traveling to different cit- ies to perform, the duet frequently visits art museums and antique stores. Historic preservation and the environment are just a couple of the many special interests they share. Their love for nature, beauty and creativity takes center stage in their music.

L “The ancestral spirit of the American Southwest is so moving, so alive, so powerful,” Tingstad said. “It transcends the here and now with an inherent sensibility as old as the land itself." ' A longstanding and highly vis- ible steward of the land, Tingstad conceived this project eight years ago under the working title, “The Desert Project." He envisioned an earthy and evocative mood he refers to as “Native Americana western desert chill." “Southwest” is on Tingstad’s label Cheshire Records (visit erict- ingstad.com). “Southwest” is Tingstad’s second nomination. He won the Grammy in 2003 with Nancy Rumbel for “Acous- tic Garden." Rumbel also'appears with Tingstad on his newly-nomi- nated collection, as well as Lanz. The stable ofcontributing art- ists also includes bassist Garey Shelton, native flutist Gary Strout- 503 and accordion player Murl Allen Sanders. The Desertt Project‘s nine acous~ tic cuts by Timgstad are enhanced with a rhythm section from percus- sionist Tim Miiller and drummer Tl Morris, who worked with Tingstad’s drum loops creating “Ambient Americana." Terry Laubier’s pedal steel guitar anchors this rrecording with essen- tial western urnderpinnings without turning the corner into an overt country soundl. Petra Stahl contrib— utes venerable chants and haunting vocals authenticating the echo of ancient voices. Tingstad shares with Lanz the history of recording on the Narada label. By a vote of his peers, Tingstad was honored in October 2006 with the Coyote Award from Arts North- west commemorating his leader- ship, visibility and contributions to the constant change in the arena of live performance.

Fledgling eagle festival planned in Arlington, Stilly Valley b Sarah Arne The Weekender The Stillaguamish Tribe and the City of Arlington are planning an annual Arlington Eagle Festival to honor the eagles who hover around this community through the year, and especially in the winter, searching for food from the Stillaguamish River. The event is set for Saturday, Feb. 9. The chair of the organizing committee is Vic Ericson, the city’s economic development manager. He said the idea popped up at a downtown merchants meeting about this time last year, but it was too late to launch a new event, so they tabled it until this year. A wildlife biologist and mem- ber of the Stillaguamish Tribe, Jen Sevigny represents the tribe on the committee and her father, Bill Neat, has designed a logo, depict- ing a: beautiful young eagle in Native American style. The Stillaguamish Tribe is assisting in the project by spon- soring experts to share their ‘ knowledge about eagles, both at The Nature Conservancy property at Hat Slough on the mouth of the Stillaguamish River and in the City Council Chambers later in the day. Robert Warren and Kat Morgan from The Nature Conservancy will offer bird talks and eagle viewing at The Nature Conservancy prop- erty at 10 a.m. and Libby Mills will speak at the Council Cham— bers in the afternoon. “Iibby Mills has agreed to share her knowledge about eagles at an indoor information session in the City Council Chambers,“ Sevigny said. Mills is active with the North Cascades Institute and a talented artist as well. “Hat Slough is the location where eagles are most likely to be seen at this time of year," said Bill Blake, the city of Arlington’s natu- ral resource manager. Sarvey Wildlife Center will bring birds for demonstrations at the Council Chambers, where Paul Nyenhuis will perform on his Native American style flutes. There will be coloring contest for kids, an art show and slides of photographs of eagles as well as educational displays about eagles and their habitat here in the Still- aguamish River Valley. After the activities at the river and at City Hall, the Stillagua- rnish Tribe Will sponsor music by Dana Lyons and/or Tim McHugh at Mirkwood's Shire Café on the north end of Olympic Avenue, about 3:30 pm. "They both do environmental folk music with acoustic guitar and fiddle," Sevigny said. Maps will be available around town to show visitors how to find the viewing area and other poten- tial eagle viewing areas between downtown Arlington and the mouth of the river. Organizations interested in providing displays or participat- ing in any ‘other way may call the city's recreation manager, Sarah Hegge for information at 360—403- 3448. Artists who would-like to show artwork that depicts eagles should call Sarah Arney at 360- 435-5 75 7. “Downtown merchants are encouraged to plan promotions and other activities to attract visi— tors into their stores and restau- rants," Ericson said The event will begin with tours of the estuary at 10 a.m. in the morning with educational displays, eagle related art, and other fun activities in the Council Chambers from 11 a.m to 3 pm. The acoustic environmental music at Mirkwood concludes the event. “We agreed that the initial event should be a small, but suc- cessful, festival," Ericson said.
