Mustard's Retreat
Mustards Retreat (David Tamulevich and Michael Hough), 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 Ark coffeehouses open mike night. They were a  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. 40 years later, they have 12 highly acclaimed recordings of their own, plus 3 more CDs with their songwriting collective, The Yellow Room Gang. Mustards Retreat has performed more than 4,000 shows over those years, traveled 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. .

Spike Barkin, who produces the prestigious Roots of American Music Festival at New York Citys Lincoln Center, wrote to thank them for their folk from the heart, going on to say it seemed like David and Michael take your living room on the road with you and invite people in as friends. David Siglin, of Ann Arbors premier folk club, The Ark, where Mustards Retreat did that first open mike, and have head-lined many, many times since said, In order to last, there has to be more than just talent  you have to enjoy playing, enjoy audiences and enjoy being in front of them. Audiences go to your shows because they know they will be entertained. Margie Rosenkranz, manager of the Eighth Step at Proctors Theatre in Schenectady, NY, who has presented Mustards Retreat many times, said a Mustards Retreat show reminds us why were doing this, pulls people together, adding that the duo transcends the vagaries of passing trends because they remain so in tune with the audience.

I work with them several times a year and always wish it was more. said Canadian songwriter Garnet Rogers, who also produced their landmark recording The Wind and the Crickets. The thing that always impresses me is the incredible openness they have with the audience. They stand up there and just radiate friendliness; the audience is included in the whole process, encouraged to sing along and talk back. Ive learned a lot from them in that sense.

They are so warm and friendly and giving on stage, completely in touch with their audience, said Tom Paxton, a folk music star for more than 40 years. There are no barriers at all, and you just love to watch that and be part of it. But the thing that strikes me about them from Jump Street  and that makes it all work so well  is that their time is so tight. Michael is such a wonderful, simple bass player; his time is just flawless. And thats why two guys can move you musically the way they do  they have a gorgeous sense of time and tempo, a real musicality to what they do. Theyre nice guys on stage and entertaining as hell, but theres also music in them.

While both Tamulevich and Hough are grounded in the early traditional 60s folk music boom, they also were influenced by the songwriters of that time, and their shows represent an eclectic blend of music, old and new, with a big dash of storytelling. We have never performed the same show twice, says Tamulevich, Each night is its own unique moment, unique audience. For us, that is the exciting thing, the magic: to craft a shared experience and leave people entertained and movedand with moments and songs they will take away with them and remember, ponder, rediscover; hopefully for years to come. Many of those moments are the result of their well-respected and broad body of original material, written both individually and together. We take our writing very seriously. says Tamulevich, No matter if it is a serious or humorous song. A song is a tool to communicate a feeling or a story, to connect and find some common ground.and we want them to be as effective as we can make it. It is a challenge that we happily embrace. Each song is a unique puzzle, and it is fun to see where it can and does take you as you write it. Michael and I are both very different people and writers; having different strengths, and that diversity, when we can get it right, can make a song a whole lot richer and more effective. It is a very rewarding process.

Those memorable songs have been a hallmark of Mustards Retreat from the first. The spooky, Mallons Bridge, that tells the story of a haunted bridge in Ireland and the midnight encounter that takes place there, has been a staple of Folk radio on Halloween since it first came out in the early 1980s. Theres A Dance Tonight celebrates love and community , the poignant Part of Me Remembers, the humorous Michigan Mosquitoes, the anthemic ( Ours is a) Simple Faith and Gather the Familyto the insightful and powerful Pay the Toll.all and more have received extensive airplay and many have been covered by other singers.
