Gearing Up For The Warmer Weather & The Stanhope House & more!

/in /by

Wow, there’s so much that’s been going on, so much to tell!

I’m so excited that the winter is finally abating and the warmer weather is heading for NYC! This was an especially tough winter here in the Northeast US however I wasn’t in the Northeast that much the past few months! It’s amazing to me that in the middle of February when I was in Longyearbyen Svalbard (Spitzbergen) it was colder in NYC!

Don’t miss the jam at The Stanhope House sponsored by Big City Blues Magazine and hosted by myself featuring The Johnny Charles Band and a special guest every Tuesday night. Its been so much fun! If you haven’t been to The Stanhope House its one of the oldest blues joints in the US, its been around since the early 1800’s (well… they had a different sort of blues music back then!)

I will be at a brand new venue in NJ Ranchero Cantina 214 Kinderkamack RD Emerson NJ the first Saturday of the month (May 3rd and June 7th)

I’m happy to announce that I will be returning to Norway July 4th to perform at TRANDAL BLUES FESTIVAL and Skjærgårds Bluesfestival July 25th in Smøla and more shows in the works which I will list as the dates come in.

I recently was in the studio recording with the legend and my soul brother Delmar Brown and I’m thrilled with what we just recorded. I’m hopeful that you readers can check out what we’ve been up to soon.

You can always check out more about what I’m doing in the bimonthly issue of Big City Blues Magazine.

There’s more to come! To quote the great Ray Redniss, stay tuned! LOL!

Dave Fields is headed for Norway!

/in /by

Hey all! Andy Huenerberg, Kenny Soule and I are headed off to Norway again to first play at BUCKLEYS in Oslo June 27th then THE OSØREN BLUES FESTIVAL Bergen Norway on June 28th and lastly THE FINSE BLUES FESTIVAL on June 29th. This will be my sixth time to BUCKLEYS and its my favorite blues room in Oslo. This will be my first time traveling to Bergen and I’m really looking forward to it. Oddly enough, as a kid I went to High School in Demarest NJ which is located in Bergen County so this trip has a special meaning for me! Oh my gosh….Finse…. I wish I could take all of you to see this magical place. Its located on the highest point on the Norwegian rail line smack dab in the middle of Oslo and Bergen. It has a year round glacier and is 1222 meters in elevation. I love al my Norwegian friends and I can’t wait to see all of them!

I hope to see you at one of my shows!!!

A1artistspotlight.com Picks “Detonation” as “Blues/Rock CD of the Year”!

/in /by

Mark Wade the host of A1artistspotlight.com has picked Dave Fields CD Detonation as “Blues/Rock CD of the Year”

Mark.” The last two weeks I have been playing the best of 2012 and ended with what I felt was the best six CD’s of 2012.
Below is the copy from the website.

Great burning blues guitars with just the right hint of Jimi Hendrix in some of the songs. Songs like “Addicted to Fire”, “Pocket Full Of Dust”, “The Altar”, “In The Night”, and “Doing Hard Time” all should be getting a lot of airplay. The sounds and moods Dave creates in his songs like “Prophet In Disguise” really shows his skill as not just a great guitarist but a accomplish song writer. This is one of those CD’s that you keep playing over and over again because you just can’t get enough of it. Keep your eyes and ears open for Dave Fields’ Detonation, this man is going somewhere.”
