Singing Oak in collaboration with David Roth and Songwriters in the Round Friday, March 7, 2025 at 7:30 PM |
|||||||||
Singing Oak Concerts is thrilled to announce we're continuing our collaboration with our friends at Unity on Cape Cod in Hyannis, to bring you a fabulous line-up of concerts this summer. We're launching the series with our fourth annual, spectacular “Songwriters in the Round” concert which features organizer David Roth, with Susan Cattaneo, Sloan Wainwright, and Glen Roethel! This will be an intimate in-the-round concert. Anything can happen as these seasoned, nationally touring artists take turns in a one-of-a-kind musical conversation. CCSR director, David Roth started the annual Cape Cod Songwriting Retreats in 2014 in order to create a safe and supportive environment for people in all walks of life and all levels of experience to reconnect with their creativity. His own music strikes many chords, hearts, and minds with unique songs, offbeat observations, moving stories, sense of the hilarious, and powerful singing and subject matter. As singer, songwriter, recording artist, keynote speaker, workshop leader, and instructor, David has earned top honors at premier songwriter competitions – Kerrville (TX) and Falcon Ridge (NY) – and taken his music, experience, and expertise to a wide variety of venues in this and other countries full-time for three decades.
David’s songs (“Rising in Love”, “Earth”, “Manuel Garcia”, “May the Light of Love”, “Nine Gold Medals”, “Spacesuits”, “Rocket Science”, “I Stand for Love”, “That Kind of Grace”, and many more) have found their way to Carnegie Hall, the United Nations, several Chicken Soup for the Soul books, the Kennedy Center, Peter, Paul, & Mary’s “Discovered” (Warner Brothers), the Kingston Trio’s “Born at the Right Time”, NASA’s Goddard Space Center (“Rocket Science” went up on the Space Shuttle Atlantis’s May 2009 mission to repair the Hubble Telescope), the classic folk song books “Rise Up Singing” and “Rise Again” (sequel), and 15 CDs on the Wind River and Stockfisch (Germany) labels. Winner of 5 Positive Music Awards and the 2015 Grace Note (Unity Worldwide) for Outstanding Contribution to New Thought Music, David has also been featured on many of Christine Lavin’s seminal Rounder Records compilations. The former artist-in-residence at New York’s Omega Institute has also been a songwriting judge at Kerrville, Napa Valley (CA), Tumbleweed (WA), Eventide Arts (MA), the Avalon Festival (WV), the South Florida Folk Festival, and for the Rhode Island Songwriters Association (RISA).

In 2013 alone Glen Roethel received honors for three songs in the 30th Mid-Atlantic Song Contest (MASC), Songwriters’ Association of Washington, DC. In 2014 he was a double Posi Award Nominee for his songs “Beautiful Now” and “Family,” both included in his newest CD, Unfolding. Unfolding, “Together” was nominated for a Posi Award in 2015. His new single, “All Is Well,” (a co-write with Sue Riley and Richard Mekdeci) from his 2018 release, Go Out And Shine (emPower Music & Arts), was just nominated in the same category for the 14th annual Posi Awards in 2019. In 2020, Glen and his trio-mates/co-writers, Judy Kass and Amy Soucy were awarded Gold in the Open Category of the 36th Mid Atlantic Song Contest for their song “Too Much Crying” and in 2021, Us! received a Posi Award for their Green Earth category song, “We’ll Get There,” and UWWM appreciated Glen’s support of the New Thought music movement with a Grace Note Award. Glen’s songs are featured in Unity songbooks; two co-writes are on the new More Than A Season holiday CD from emPower Music & Arts. He tours the country in Posi-Palooza concerts and holiday shows, and many more – delighting audiences with thoughtful songwriting, soaring vocals, infectious energy and accomplished acoustic (and electric) guitar playing – for more than 45 years. Glen Roethel applies his creative energies to songwriting as well. His songs grace TV and syndicated radio shows. Glen formed and led a 100-person international choir – accompanied by The Buddha Babies, his Afro-Cuban Peruvian Japanese American band – playing and singing his own songs for more than 700 fans in New York City. Howard Stern used his song “Smokin’ My Head” (1994) for walk-in music, and cable TV’s Inside The NFL used his dramatic instrumental guitar music to set an eerie mood for slow-motion dramatic effect. His song “Namaste'” was featured in a multi-media exhibit at the Presidential Museum in Texas as part of a multi-media exhibit by Arlene Atherton titled Children Speak: Tsunami. |
