About Mustard’s Retreat
Mustard’s Retreat has for decades been delighting audiences as raconteurs, storytellers, and accomplished musicians (vocals, guitars, dulcimer, electric bass, mandolin, harmonica, pennywhistle). David Tamulevich & Libby Glover have always sung the songs they enjoyed and cared about. In every performance, they simply are themselves, delighting in and connecting with their audiences as if they were family.
Mustard’s Retreat does not give a formal ”performance”. A sharing of songs and experience is what happens when they are on stage. Their songs can be traditional, contemporary, or their own compositions. Regardless of type, the audience is invited into their world and is drawn closer together. It is music for real people about real things- life, love, sex and death- the big stuff- and the songs have entered the lexicon of “ anonymous” folk songs and are being passed from hand to hand- which is the ultimate tribute to a songwriter. They came of age in the 60s, at the confluence of Pete Seeger, Peter, Paul & Mary, Bob Dylan and the singer/songwriter revolution. They care much more about what they do and stand for and finding that common ground with the audience than fame or money. Garnet Rogers commented that “Mustard’s Retreat stands out as the real thing: Writing to make sense of their lives, helping us to make sense of ours, sharing much, talking little, trying to find the most graceful path and being able to laugh at the inevitable stumbles and head bumps along the way. “Mustard’s Retreat puts the fun in folk!
Their most recent album, By Request (2024) Duo album with Libby Glover. Reimagining old favorites and requests from fans.
They’ve traveled more than a million miles and performed more than 7,500 shows, from pig roasts and pool parties to Lincoln Center Out of Doors, The Barns at Wolf Trap and the Kennedy’s Center’s Millennium Stage. Audiences never leave any other way than uplifted, consoled, and happy. Visit Mustard Retreat’s website.
