Come experience the music

Mustard’s Retreat performances are always joyful and uplifting, as well as intelligent, thought-provoking and insightful. A reviewer early in their career described their performance as “Music to cure what ails you.” In the past few years, they have described their shows as “Defiantly Hopeful,” partly in terms of their long career, but more as a statement of what the music, and the folk community, has meant to them.
“Defiantly Hopeful,” explains David Tamulevich, “we feel that that is what folk music is about…. Yes, it is joyful and fun, mystery and wonder, the heartbreaks and resiliency, celebrating life. Beneath all of that, it is community and finding common ground beyond the politics and differences… helping each other chart our way through our times. We celebrate all of that…and that, is Defiantly Hopeful.”
Mustard’s Retreat has traveled more than a million miles and performed more than 7,000 shows, from pool parties and pig roasts, concerts, and festivals, to Lincoln Center Out of Doors, The Barns at Wolftrap, and the Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage. People locally might know them also from their appearances at The Eighth Step, the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival, the Great Hudson River Revival, and from airplay on WAMC, WWUH, WPKN and WYBC, among others. They have 14 highly acclaimed recordings of mostly original material.
