From WWR

Guitarist, singer/songwriter Burl Sheldon has been performing for 27 years. He's opened for The Wilders, Laura Love, Livingston Taylor, Cheryl Wheeler, and John Hammond. His live performances have been aired on the syndicated radio shows River City Folk and West Coast Live. His first CD, Tidal Lore, was showcased as an independent release on NPR's World Cafe with David Dye.

Burl grew up in a musical family and remembers that there was always a rock 'n roll band practicing in the basement. Some of his musical influences include Doc Watson, Taj Mahal, Robert Johnson, Stan Rogers, and '60s and '70s rock. Burl's musical style reflects his love of country blues, r&b, and folk music.

Burl Sheldon and wife Nancy, each powerful songwriters in their own right, have combined their talents to create a project that is a delightful treat for the ears and the soul. Not only did the disc stay in my player for weeks and weeks, I found that phrases and melodies followed me throughout my day, cropping up in quiet moments, and giving me reason to mull them over once again. - Robin Hopper

Where We Live

The original songs that reflect our unique location and lifestyle include: Heartbeat, Every Green Thing, Love For All Seasons, Another Fine Day, and Five Acres of Ground. Busy Makin' Money is a songwriting collaboration and a product of our marriage. Burl is the sole author of his 1996 release, Tidal Lore.

Lynn Canal is located near the northern most isthmus of Southeast Alaska's Inside Passage, where stunning mountains plunge into a deep fjord. Marine life includes humpback whales and orcas, Steller's sea lions, otters, and the five species of pacific salmon. The mountains, shoreline and coastal valleys are home to moose, black and brown bear, mountain goats, lynx, mink, marten, wolves and coyotes.

Our remote home is located 8 miles south of Haines, Alaska, where Alaska Native people have thrived for thousands of years and traditional and customary use of fish and wildlife remain important. While Burl and Nancy both have day-jobs, fishing, gardening and gathering wild edibles are an important part of their lives. Their home, built on the shore of Lynn Canal, is hand-made from salvaged beach logs Burl chainsaw milled into beams and lumber. While Burl milled, Nancy framed the walls. [1]
