Terminal Gravity Presents: Buddy Mondlock
Wallowa County music lovers are in for a treat on July 6, as Nashville songwriter Buddy Mondlock takes the stage at Terminal Gravity Brewing in Enterprise. Mondlock was a New Folk Award Winner at the Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas in 1987, a major turning point in his career that went on to include having his songs recorded by the likes of Guy Clark, Nanci Griffith, Garth Brooks, Joan Baez, and Peter, Paul and Mary.
When Buddyʼs not on the road you can find him in Nashville but he grew up in Park Forest, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago. He didnʼt have a troubled childhood. His parents were nice to him. They paid for guitar lessons when he was ten and they never said, “when are you going to get a real job?” He sang Crosby, Stills and Nash songs with his sisters and answered his little brotherʼs questions from the top bunk. A few years away at college puzzling over Homer and Plato and then he was back. Living in the big city this time and playing open mics at Chicagoʼs crucible for songwriters in those days, the famed Earl of Old Town. He once opened for the amazing Steve Goodman there on New Yearʼs Eve. Buddy was 21. Says he could have walked out of there that night and gotten hit by a bus and he wouldnʼt have felt like life cheated him at all.
“Mondlock’s songs are like movies you want to see again. He starts with the same world we all see and hear, but he transforms the sights and sounds into revelations that delight and melodies that linger.” - Ed Morris, Billboard Magazine
“As acclaimed as he is as a songwriter, he is a fine performer who can create his share of magic with his high clear voice and inventive acoustic guitar.” - David Johnson, Boston Globe
Wednesday’s performance is free and open to the public. The usual fine food and drink served at Terminal Gravity will enhance the musical experience.
