Event
The Dreamsicles in Concert
"Cleverly-worded pop confections that swiftly live up to the pair's billing"--Washington Post
Introducing The Dreamsicles- two voices and a guitar, intricate harmonies with a little cheerleading thrown in, singing love songs for grown ups.
Both Tom and Cary are Kerrville New Folk Competition Winners-accomplished songwriters in their own right. They draw on their experience in classical violin, musical theater, raising kids,and living in the third world to create songs which navigate the territory between Everything But The Girl and Leonard Cohen, Lucy Kaplansky and Krishna Das.
"This pop-folk-funk duo has it all sewed up baby, and damn is it fine."--Sing Out!
Tom Prasada-Rao and Cary Cooper fell in love in the spring of 2002. They started writing songs together almost immediately, songs that describe the roller coaster ride of finding love again later in life. They set out to create something different, not for 13 year olds with allowance money, but for parents with mortgages and divorces. Soon their songs started developing a certain motif; celebrating the experience, the fear, the sexuality, and the longing of those who have actually been around the block.
The Dreamsicles'second album "Luv Songs For Grownups" picks up where their self-titled debut left off. Like their live shows, it's honest, vulnerable, and sassy. They aren't afraid to laugh at themselves or to wear their hearts on their sleeves, and they open the door for their audiences to do the same. They were nominated for three 2004 Just Plain Folks awards including Contemporary Album of the Year, and again in 2006 for New Folk Album of the Year and New Folk Song of the Year.
