Dave Matheson
Another great musician that Raven has collaborated with in the
past, writing lyrics for his soulful melodies. A past collboration appeared on an earlier Album. Currently Dave and Raven
are working on a collaborative piece entitled "Solitude".
Review of Dave's Album UNAWARE
"On
first listen, it's obvious that Dave Matheson is indebted to rock's watershed late 60's - early 70's period. What soon becomes
apparent, though, is that he wisely favors creating something original that is informed by his influences rather than outright
slavish imitation of any particular style or artist.
Dave
cites his influences as being wide and far ranging from Pink Floyd to Steely Dan; from the Moody Blues to the acoustic
singer-songwriter movement in general. Dave's primary instrument here is the acoustic guitar but the icing on the cake
here is the melodies. Several of the tracks have melodies that tend to stay with you after the first listen.

Susan Lainey
Susan
Lainey has been surrounded by music all her life. When she was young, her family always got together on Sunday afternoons
to play live music, mostly country and rock & roll.
As
a teenager, she began performing at coffeehouses and churches, and jamming with other players to the folk, blues and country
rock of the 60s and 70s. She toured throughout
New England, playing ski resorts, colleges, festivals and jamborees. Later, she toured northern New England with several bands
including a performance for the Winter Olympics at Lake Placid, NY.
She moved back to her hometown in 1979, still
writing original songs but mostly performing covers at local clubs. After marrying, she worked for a number of years in the
health care field, including as a music facilitator for adults in day care and preschoolers, and started to pursue a degree
in gerontology / music therapy. But the siren call of music lured her back.
In 1995, she formed her own business, In-Tune Consulting,
which provides music programs for over 50 health facilities in the SouthCoast area. She also does private gatherings such
as weddings, anniversaries, wedding and baby showers, memorial services and dedications, birthday parties and more. That same
year she performed in Nashville at the Ryman Auditorium.
Her musical career of 30-plus years culminated with
the release of her first CD, entitled simply “Susan Lainey.” The CD features 11 songs with a country-folk flavor
written by Ms. Lainey, along with three oldies and three gospel hymns.
