Chip Davis, founder and creator of Mannheim Steamroller, will celebrate the 35th Anniversary of his annual Christmas concert tour, making it the longest running consecutive concert tour in the entertainment industry!
Davis said the hallmark tour will begin on November 11th, 2019 and run through December 29th, 2019 Two traveling ensembles will hold performances in cities across the country.
“I remember when I came out with my first Christmas album in 1984 followed by our first tour. Back then, many in the music industry said focusing on Christmas just wouldn’t work,” said Davis.
“Now, 35 years later, we are still going strong. I want to thank our fans for making us part of their holiday tradition. Today we often see multi-generational families join us during the holidays each year.”
Davis founded his own record label, American Gramaphone, which went on to become one of the industry’s largest independent record labels. A Grammy Award winner, Mannheim Steamroller has sold more than 40 million albums, 29 million in the Christmas genre. Their holiday CD’s have become synonymous with Christmas and occupy top positions on Billboard’s Seasonal Chart every year.
This year’s show will feature the original classic Christmas hits from the first Mannheim Steamroller Christmas along with multimedia effects in an intimate setting. Davis will direct and co-produce Tour performances with MagicSpace Entertainment.
Mannheim Steamroller Christmas by Chip Davis is co-produced by MagicSpace Entertainment. The company is headed by Lee D. Marshall, Joe Marsh, John Ballard, and Steve Boulay and has been producing and presenting national tours, Broadway shows, concerts and museum exhibits worldwide for over 35 years. They have an office in Park City, UT. www.magicspace.net

UGM: The Songwriters’ Roundtable Takeover!
“The Songwriters’ Roundtable” is a musicians’ group that meets regularly at The Gathering Place in Clarks Summit, PA and is facilitated by Timothy Zieger. This singer/songwriter showcase will feature all original music.
Timothy Zieger, Host
Timothy Zieger is a singer-songwriter of uncommon depth. His lyrics can touch of weighty subjects with great sensitivity, and also address more the mundane with a poetic eye. Blessed with a warm tenor voice and a gift for melody, Zieger often brings distinctive arrangement ideas into his songs, while keeping in an acoustic context. He is the epitome of the articulate folkie, whose music extends beyond the conventions of the genre, and whose songs have staying power.” –George Graham – Senior Producer and Host, WVIA Public Radio
Zieger’s first album, North Light, has been described as, “a quintessential winter album: lean, lonesome, and full of longing.” In 2018, not long after the release of that album, Tim organized a songwriters’ meet-up in collaboration with The Gathering Place in Clarks Summit, called the Songwriters’ Roundtable. The Roundtable has been meeting once a month since then and has been responsible for the creation of scores new songs. When he’s not writing songs, Tim’s teaching kids, riding a bike, tending a garden, reading, or whittling.
Lorne Clark
Lorne Clarke is a Canadian singer/songwriter who first began performing in the mid-1970s in the Toronto folk scene.
Born in Toronto, Ontario and raised in the isolated mining community of Schefferville, Quebec, Clarke had worked at a number of careers before choosing music for his profession. His early jobs include stints as a marine engineer on Great Lakes vessels, a high-rise construction carpenter, a dairy farmer, a Toronto police officer, and a power plant operator at a paper mill. Thus it is perhaps understandable that his songs often reveal his working-class background and thus ring with authenticity.
For more than 30 years, Canada’s Lorne Clarke has been performing at festivals, clubs, house concerts and theatres across Canada and the United States. A powerful singer and gifted songwriter, he cut his teeth as a performing artist in the busy Toronto folk scene in the early 1970’s – branching out into Bluegrass in the mid 1980’s. In 1994 Clarke returned to the solo acoustic folk scene with a series of critically acclaimed performances on US Public Radio and TV.
October 1999 marked the release of Lorne Clarke, his eponymously titled debut CD. It is a powerful collection of 14 original songs in a rich acoustic package, featuring an outstanding musical cast and produced by internationally respected producer/engineer, George Graham.
Lorne’s second studio CD, Moonlight & Cider, was released in 2007. Recorded and mixed at James Gordon’s “Pipe Street Studios” in Guelph, Ontario, it features 15 more original songs.
And now, in the spring of 2015, Lorne is readying his 3rd CD, to be titled, From My Window.
Since 2000, he he has been the artistic director and promoter for The Old Lynn Concerts in Lynn, Pennsylvania. This unique, free, concert series runs to packed houses and presents concerts by contemporary folk artists from all over the world.
Clarke is widely known for his continuing work with American song writer, Tom Flannery; specifically for the two theme-based song cycles: “Rwanda Songs” in 2004 and “Hands in the Dark” in 2006. These song cycles tackle difficult issues: genocide in “Rwanda Songs” and child sexual abuse crisis by Catholic clergy in “Hands in the Dark”.
In addition, in 2006, Clarke and Flannery composed and performed the soundtrack to the award-winning feature-length documentary film, “Facing Sudan”, directed and produced by Bruce David Janu of Chicago, Illinois. Clarke’s song, “How Do We Sleep At Night?” is the opening theme song to the film (filmmaker’s website). In 2008, he contributed several songs to “Crayons and Paper”, a follow-up to “Facing Sudan”.
Rich Janov
A Wilkes-Barre native, Rich Janov has spent years spreading his musical message far and wide. He lays down a subtle approach to his craft, which can only be described as sublime, and masterfully beautiful. He can bring a room to its knees with his down tempo musings on life, love, and the world we live in. His compositions are honest, poignant, and deliberate, and he brings a special light and energy with every chord struck.
Brian Deery
Brian William Deery has been writing songs and lyrics since he was 16 y.o. on Long Island in Shirley N.Y. where he allegedly “grew up”. His family hails from Liverpool, England, home of a somewhat famous musical group, The Beatles. Most of Brian’s lyrics are based on personal observations balanced by a cheeky take on Life in general. Brian formed The Bystanders, an all original rock band, in the early 90’s in the hopes of securing a record deal. Cie la vie. His dear old guitar has taken a back seat to Brian’s new love, the ukulele. In addition, Brian plays a mean blues harp when allowed to sit in with local musicians. Brian and his high school sweetheart, Emilie, moved with their 3 sons to NEPA in 2001 and enjoy the local Arts and Music scene.
Zach Sprowls
After several years spent in other states working as a worship leader, Zach Sprowls is glad to be back home in NEPA pursuing his music full time. Given an upbringing in classical music, a penchant for writing and arranging, and a love of modern indie music, Zach finds himself constantly straddling the old and new. Perhaps that admixture best characterizes his work as a neo-classical composer, singer/songwriter collaborator, published sacred music arranger…and, well, maybe everything else about him too.
Gary Carl
Gary Carl is a Singer Songwriter from Northeast PA (NEPA). From 1992 – 2014, Gary played his hands in the World of Coverbandom in the groups Eternity, Jeffrey James Band, Tom and Gary Duo, Johnson, Brothers Capone, Inside Out, and other projects.
