Little Rock Folk Club Presents Mustard's Retreat

For the past four decades Mustard's Retreat( David Tamulevich and Michael Hough), have been entertaining audiences with its special brand of folk music. Highly acclaimed not only as songwriters but as interpreters of traditional and contemporary songs and stories, their show is full of enthusiasm, good humor and fine musicianship.

David and Michael met in Ann Arbor, MI in 1974, as short order cooks, both on hiatus from their studies at the University of Michigan. Discovering a mutual interest in music/writing and performing, they put together 3 songs one day after work, and took them to the legendary The Ark coffeehouses open mike night. They were a big hit, and, on the spot, were invited back to do a 45 minute set 2 weeks later. Within a year and a half they had both quit the restaurant and were doing music full time. 37 years later, they have 9 highly acclaimed recordings of their own, plus 2 more CDs with their songwriting collective, The Yellow Room Gang. Mustards Retreat has performed more than 4,000 shows over those years, travelled more than 1 million miles and in doing so, have earned a dedicated and loyal following, many of whom have been coming to hear them since the 1970s. Michael and David joke on stage about attracting people with long attention spans, but it is what Mustards Retreat gives them that turns audiences into such loyal fans.
