    Eve Selis (Saturday, August 19, 2017)

    Image description
    Eve Selis is one of our favorite performers, giving her all to each performance. And Eve is one of our favorite people as well, always ready to lend her support to a worthy cause. We count ourselves fortunate to be welcoming her back to frogstop this year.

    "Eve is a deeply creative, caring artist who gives everything to her craft. As a live performer she is awesomely powerful, as a recording artist she is both sensitive and strong. I love her spirit and I love her music. She deserves to shine."
    BBC Radio Legend Sir “Whispering Bob” Harris

    "The most requested local artist in the history of our station."
    Robert Hughes, Station Manager, KPRI, 102.1FM San Diego

    “The Eve Selis Band erupted in an acute explosion of Americana, wailing and twanging and thundering and throbbing, conjuring demons and angels alike. Damn, that woman can sing!”
    Buddy Blue - Blue Notes

    “Eve Selis isn’t just a “singer” — she’s an emotion transducer who converts country, R&B, blues, folk, and rock ‘n’ roll signals into a megawatt zap that galvanizes everyone in its path. The power of Selis’s voice can arc-weld material from almost any genre into a personal manifesto.”
    John D'Agostino - Taylor Guitars On Review.

    Eve Selis (Saturday, May 31, 2014)

    Image description
    This is one of our most well-attended concerts each year, and with good reason: Eve Selis is an exciting presence on stage, bringing great songs and outstanding musicians to each show. This year Eve will again be accompanied by bandmate and songwriting partner Marc "Twang" Intravaia, and we think we'll be seeing another member of the Eve Selis Band (just can't say who quite yet).

    The first year Eve Selis was here at frogstop she performed with her songwriting partner, Marc "Twang" Intravaia. Last year Eve and Marc were back, along with the band's other guitarist extraordinaire, "Cactus" Jim Soldi. This year we're excited all over again, because Eve, Marc and Jim will be joined by bandmate Sharon Whyteon keyboards, accordian, and vocals. (And yes, we're hoping this means one year we'll see Rick Nash and Larry Grano here, too!)

    Post-concert Pleasures (#4)

    As those of you who attended know, last night's concert was fantastic. (Thank you, Eve, Marc and Jim!) But I want to praise the attendees. What a wonderful group of people! Cathy and I are always impressed by the great folks who walk in the door for these house concerts. And last night was as good as it gets; everyone was so supportive and helpful. One guest took it on himself to get a balky patio lamp working (he wasn't even sitting by the lamp himself); and everyone cleaned up and stacked chairs as they left (without being asked). I found only one tiny scrap of paper in the yard this morning. Anyway: a pleasure.

    We also had a couple of people ask about helping out at future concerts. I'm sorry to say I didn't stop to write down names, so please feel free to remind me if you're still game.

    Shout-outs to Chiara Sutton (our teenage stage lighting control wizard) and to Erica Brucia, last night's indoor organizational goddess.

    We last hosted Eve Selis here at frogstop in 2008 (our inaugural year!), and we are so excited to welcome her back this year. Eve will be joined by her songwriting partner (20th year anniversary this year!) Marc "Twang" Intravaia and "Cactus" Jim Soldi (ex-Johnny Cash band), two of the finest guitarists you could hope to see onstage together. Eve and the band’s recent UK tour was highlighted by a performance at the legendary Abbey Road studios.
