"Well the wood keeps burnin' in the old wood stove,
And the cows keep goin' where they done been drove;
And a light keeps glowin' in Dead Man's Cove,
And a loom keeps spinnin' where the weave gets wove."
- Steve Cash , from the "Quilt" Album

In recent times founding member of The Daredevils, Michael ‘Supe’ Granda has done some recording projects of his own.   Some of you may already know of this, but he has several CDs out with some great songs.  We are now carrying his CDs in our Merchandise Department.  You can check them out by clicking on the album cover below.

We all want to welcome our new lead guitar player Dave Painter to the group as a regular member.  Dave is an accomplished player and gives the songs that original touch that we all love.  He is also a music teacher, and happened to learn a lot of his skills by playing The Daredevils music with his older brother years ago.  We can count on Dave to provide a great addition to the band.

WE HAVE GREAT T-SHIRTS AND MORE!

Be sure to check out the 35th anniversary ball caps, the great T-Shirts, and the band's latest Studio CD "13".  Due to popular demand we have developed some new T-shirt designs.  Many of the fans have asked for a “Men From Earth” T-shirt for years, and now that the album is available we have finally come up with one.  It is a great looking shirt!  We have also made a simple design of just the band’s name on another shirt.  It is also very nice looking.  Both of them are available through our Merchandise Department.  We are now offering some special pricing on the new shirts as well as our older shirt designs & CDs.  Click on the album cover below to go to our Merchandise Department where you will find pictures and ordering information.

 

BULLETIN FOR READERS!

Founding Daredevils member, songwriter, harmonica player and singer Steve Cash has written and published his second novel.

 

“TIME DANCERS”, published by Del Rey, is now available at all major

booksellers.  TIME DANCERS is also Book Two of THE MEQ trilogy, so if you haven't met Z and his friends yet, we suggest you do so immediately by reading “THE MEQ”.  The adventure is addictive! 

 

The Meq” is the first novel from Steve.  The flavor is refreshingly unusual, with a secret race of childlike immortals--the Meq--groping after a lost heritage while decade after decade of human history ticks by.  It was published in England in 2004 and by Del Rey Publishing (Random House) in the USA in January 2005.

 Check them out at Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.com, Border's Books and Music, Barnes & Noble, and other major walk-in or online outlets.  Click on the link below, where you can obtain more information and purchase your copy.
