Songs For NYC: William Bates

t21music@charter.net (William Bates) — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 15:37:00 -0500

I have played music in NYC several times
with bands and as a solo artist.
The people there treated me with respect
and appreciation for my talents.
Being a lover of history, I was moved
to write 2 songs in tribute to this
great city. One is based on the story of
The General Slocum and the other
is based on the Triangle Shirt Waist Factory Fire.
The last is a song I wrote after
9/11 for NYC.

The Ballad of the General Slocum
The Living Heart of New York City
Greetings From the Wilderness

O Mello Cello Tree on The Reedy Beat

O Mello Cello Tree

t21music@charter.net (William Bates) — Thu, 5 Nov 2009 16:40:00 -0500

This acoustic, near neo-folk duo is comprised of two head strong women and have quite the tale to tell. Darby Tollison, known to her fans as Darby One, met Sarah Clanton a few years ago at Coffee Underground in Greenville South Carolina. Sarah was involved with another band, ViaMcbee, and finishing up Furman Univeristy. Before everyone's eyes Sarah fell into the throes of Darby's soulful tunes! After a classical fall out with the flute Darby began playing guitar at the age of thirteen. She always had hoped to integrate the cello into her music...somehow...It had to be fate that O Mello Cello Tree began as two musical soul mates found each other. Since 2006 O Mello Cello Tree has opened for various artists including Jump Little Children's Ward Williams, Niel Brooks, and Wasted Wine. The duo also participated in O.N.E. Music Festival 2007 and will be returning again this year. This summer O Mello Cello Tree will be performing at Music in the Woods at Paris Mountain State Park, a sustainable festival which Sarah Clanton has organized for the 2008 season. These ladies most recently made their way to the city of dreams, Nashville, Tennessee, via their tremendous fans. Now, with the release of their first professional album, Ride to Graybar Lane, O Mello Cello Tree hopes to gain serious ground in order to fund an east coast tour within the next year. With the support they have received so far, the possibilities now seem limitless.

On a personal note, I give these talented young artists my highest recommendation. Their music is soulful, melodic, and touches the heart in a most unique way...

The Revolvers were a GVL SC band that I had the pleasure to be a part of in the 1990s. We played Beatlesque Power Pop/Rock and Roll. We gathered critical praise and played a host of gigs in the Carolinas and Georgia. We recorded with REM producer and Power Pop Guru Mitch Easter and also did session dates in Nashville.

Here is a clip from a 07.05.96 gig doing an original song called
