Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 06/08/2015 (3944 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Over the past five years a group of Onanole musicians known as the Route 10 Collective have staged summer concerts. The Collective is comprised of seasonal cabin dwellers and full time residents of the Clear Lake area. Past shows include The Last Waltz, Monterrey Pop Festival, Neil-fest, the Beatles White Album and Bob-fest.
This year the Collective will perform the first two albums released by Crosby, Stills & Nash. CSN, along with Neil Young, personified California folk rock in the late 60s and early 70s. Their creative output still stands as some of the best music ever created.
The first album helped initiate a sea change in popular music away from the ruling late sixties, psychedelic blues-based rock music on loud guitars, into a more rootsy acoustic sound. The second album, entitled Deja Vu, enlisted the writing and playing of Neil Young. Deja Vu is also heralded as being a ‘ground breaking masterpiece of the times.’
The Route 10 Collective have been sequestered in a garage for most of the summer learning the music. The band looks forward to performing this music in, what it hopes will be, its sixth sold out concert series.
The Route 10 Collective consists of: Craig Atkinson, Ken Cambell, Carly Dow, Murray Evans, Troy Fleming, Ingrid Gaten, Mathew Kroeker, Cam McKillop, Colton McKillop, Logan McKillop, Dave Oakey, Alyse McKillop-Richards, Don Sullivan, Pat Sullivan
