Donna Colton

Looking forward to seeing our fans!!

This is a beautiful place to spend a Saturday afternoon sipping wine and hearing Donna Colton croon!

Back at the Rooster for our Sunday afternoon social.  Time to be out on the deck playing.  See you out there!!

Rockin' at the Rooster!

Private Party for the Pinstriper's.  Every year these guys come from across the nation as well as other countries to participate in this event called East Coast Artie's Party.  They do their artwork on panels, pedals cars and even on guitars!  Then they auction it off to the highest bidder and all of the proceeds are donated to benefit a local charity.  For the last 4 years, the monies raised have gone to McMahon/Ryan House for sexually abused children and last year alone the pinstripers raised $77, 000.  This year the money will go to Ronald McDonald House, so do stop by and buy some artwork!

Izzo's White Barn Winery is 5 miles West of Bass Pro, just off Route 20 on Cayuga Rd.  This is a really wonderful spot to play outside on the veranda if it's sunny or inside in the comfy re-done barn if the weather turns out rainy.  We'll be playing from 2-5 PM, so come on out!

Sipping wine on the patio in the lazy August sun.  We'll be playing inside, but they open the patio doors and let it drift out into the woods.  Lovely setting for some lovely sounds.   Se you out there.

Tom Benedict is your gracious host and lover of live music.  We love playing here and the crowd makes it a great venue for listening and singing along.  

We might still be able to be playing out on the deck, last blast of summer!  Other wise we're doing your acoustic rock favorites along with original music in the pub.

We're back at the Grove for sure on this date.  Be on the look out for some others, too.  We always have a great time playing here.  the people are warm and friendly, and it's not just because of the wine. :)  We'll play a lot of our music because Diane and Ken are big fans and are always playing our CD's in the tasting room.  If you haven't come out to one of these gigs, plan to do it!  It's outside on a lovely veranda with an enchanting view of Cayuga Lake.  Bring a picnic and buy a bottle of wine to have while hearing your favorite musicians.  You can share some wine with them, too!  See you out there.  

Take a drive on Route 20 and go 5 miles outside of Auburn 'til you see the white barn on the left.  Turn there and spend some time tasting wine and stopping by the warm and cozy remodeled barn to hear us play!

Beautiful spot on Cayuga Lake and we'll be playing somewhere outside; either on the deck or on the band wagon.  Always a great venue and Diane and Ken, the owners, are big music fans so that makes the gig even better!  You're welcome to bring a picnic or they usually have some BBQ to munch on, too. 

More details to follow!

 Wonderful room for tasting and listening.  We like the Reisling!  Grab a bottle and hang by the fireplace with us.   

Donna & Sam playing in the pub!    

I'll be performing as part of the SAMMY's Spotlight on this local TV show!  Gonna represent the Sammy Hall of Famers'.  Tune in, yes?!

Our first time playing at Marcella's!  Looking forward to a new venue and having some of our west side friends join us.  We've played at the Clarion before, but it was for the once a month Guitar League meeting, so we didn't get a chance to experience the restaurant.  We hear it's great.  Stop by and help us make a good first impression, yes?!

Great atmosphere here for listening to music.  Come to Sitrus for a bite and a cocktail.

We'll be playing music starting at 8:00 PM.  Looking forward to a New Year with all of our Red Rooster friends!  Check out the special menu the chef has cooked up for the party.  The food is spectacular!  

Your chance to see this amazing guitar duo before they take a break for six weeks.  Loren and Mark have asked us to open for them and we were glad to do it.  But we'll have to mix it up a bit playing some tunes that we know; they'll play some tunes that they know and then we'll meet at the end for some stuff we all know.  If you saw the show Sam and I did with Loren at Jazz Central a couple of years ago, you know that this will be a wonderful night of music.  It's just such a pleasure to play with them; well, you'll see what we mean.   Get your tickets at:  www.brownpapertickets.com/event/298082   

Our first gig at bc Restaurant and we'll be ready to croon our hearts out for you!  Do stop in to dine if you haven't tried this wonderful restaurant yet.

A beautiful winery on Cayuga Lake.  This is a private event for folks who buy a case (12 bottles) of Buttonwood Grove Wine.  We've played at this party for a couple of years and it's always a riot!  It's never too late to buy a case...

Looking forward to playing for this event!

A great listening room; we love playing our music here.  They also serve beer and wines along with coffees and desserts, etc!

Many of our Auburn fans will remember this as the Blarney Stone, but there's a new owner, new decor and new menu.  Had good fun with our fans here last time and looking forward to doing it again. 

We're honored to be invited guests and the band for our friends Dawn and Mary's Wedding.  Their daughter and our youngest fan, Rachel, will be there too!

We'll be playing for the cocktail hour while the new bride and groom have their photos taken.  Then, we're partying too!
