During the 2020 pandemic we got busy, creating music videos (filmed quarantine-style). — including Daniel’s song, “Dad’s Garage”, featuring wonderful artwork by his sister, Elizabeth Boling
Through the video wizardry of Andy Corwin, we put this project together during the pandemic “missing year” from Steve Brooks’ and Andy’s homes in Texas, Daniel’s in New Mexico, and Elizabeth’s in Indiana. Ain’t the internet amazing? Please enjoy and share this!
Wishing the very best to all fathers everywhere, and sending love to our own dear Dads…gone a couple years now.

News Flash:
Limeliters Chosen for Texas State Touring Roster!
The Limeliters are thrilled to announce that we are new members of the Texas Commission on the Arts Touring Roster! The roster is an exclusive group. Only 143 Texas artists and arts companies are listed, out of hundreds that applied.
What does being on the roster mean? It means more opportunities for Texans to enjoy the legendary performances of The Limeliters. When a non-profit arts presenter or a government body wants to book an act on the TCA Touring Roster, they can get a state grant to help. If your local performing arts center, festival, library, school or rec center is interested bringing the Limeliters to your town, the TCA will cover up to half our fee.
We’re booking for 2022 and 2023. If you’d like to see a live performance, and you know of a local venue that might be interested, please contact us at limelitersinfo@gmail.com
We’ll reach out to the venue – and hopefully, schedule a show close to you!
…and we’re just the guys to do it!
Meet the Limeliters!
C. Daniel Boling
Balladeer/songwriter C. Daniel Boling is a past winner of the prestigious Grassy Hill Kerrville New Folk songwriter contest and other songwriting honors including the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival, Walnut Valley Festival, Santa Fe Bluegrass and Old Time Festival and more. A Park Ranger and Criminal Investigator in National Parks and Public Lands throughout the western U.S.A. for 30 years, since 2008 he has toured coast-to-coast and overseas in over one hundred shows a year in house concerts, listening rooms, theatres and festivals. Daniel grew up on traditional folk music and the folk songs of the 60s. He is a Berkalin Records recording artist and has released eight solo albums since 1999.
Dutch music magazine Real Roots Café says of Daniel, “Think of a subtle intertwining of Steve Goodman, John Prine and Tom Paxton.”
Cross two famous guys named Brooks – Garth and Mel – and you get Austin singer-songwriter
Steve Brooks
A classic Texas troubadour who mixes storytelling, humor, heartbreak and cracker-barrel philosophy, his songs have been recorded by more than a dozen Americana artists, like Slaid Cleaves, Christine Albert and Russell Crowe. He wrote a song-a-week for Jim Hightower’s nationally-syndicated radio show and appeared on TV’s “I’ve Got a Secret” as six-time World Pun Champion. Writes Stave Magazine, “He is simply the most clever man you’ll hear with a guitar.”
…and then, of course, there’s
Andy Corwin
At this point, Andy is the veteran of the group — and the only member to have performed with original Limeliters Alex Hassilev and Glenn Yarbrough. Back in the 90’s, he was the long haired, scraggly bass player of “The Foremen”, a folk music / comedy quartet best remembered for clever and literate political satire. The Foremen recorded two albums on the Warner/Reprise label in the mid-nineties and performed at the 1996 Democratic Party convention in Chicago (they also gate-crashed the Republican convention that same year — but, that’s another story.)
In recent years he has teamed with singer/songwriter (& renaissance man) Steve Goodie to form the duo “actual size” …and he’s also collaborated with songstress/comedienne, Justeen Ward, to create “Daddio and Angel”, a BabyBoomer-themed cabaret show.
Andy was a winner of the 2005 New Folk Songwriting Competition at the Kerrville Folk Festival with his songs Cowboy by Day/ Ballerina by Night and The Agnostic Gospel Song.
He is also an accomplished documentary filmmaker and television editor, whose work has appeared on NBC, PBS, History Channel, NatGeo, Animal Planet, Discovery, HGTV and The Food Network… to name but a few.
The Reviews are in…
