On a perfect May Saturday night in San Rafael, CA, those of us in the excited audience saw another unbelievable competition and show. Eight Regional winners were up on stage, singing their hearts out for us and the judges, with the National Championship on the line. 18 songs, including 2 from the 3rd-Place-winning set of Local Folk/World favorites Solstice, "Wade in the Water" and the dynamic "Kappee;" a pair from Denver's "Face," including the gritty, powerful rocker "Home," that won them 2nd Place, and three sweet winners from new National Champs from Los Angeles, Moira Smiley & VOCO, the folk tune "Bring Me Little Water, Silvie," "Szerelem" and the lovely, moving "Stand in that River." Other favorites are New York's The Fault Line's "Some Kind of Wonderful;" the Pacific NW's V-Chords' "Don't You Worry 'Bout a Thing;" Mid-Atlantic's DoubleShot!'s "Steal My Kisses;" Boston's Men in Black's "Run Around" and Chicago's Nightwatch's very funny "Defying Gravity." And let us not forget 2005 Champs Hi-Fidelity (hey, that's 2 in a row for L.A.!), whose "Enterprise/Sulu Medley" reminds us how brilliant and funny they can be. Our Favorite: "Stand in that River" cut #14. (Taken from the producer's web site.)
