Bell & Field Live at Valley View Club – July 3, 2026

We’re excited to be part of a special summer evening at Valley View Club in Cambridge on July 3.

This will be our first performance there as Bell & Field, though Tom has played there before as a solo act. This time, we’ll be bringing the full trio sound, with acoustic guitar, piano, and Paul joining us on sax.

The timing makes the night feel even more fitting. Valley View Club is celebrating its 60th anniversary in 2026, with its original 9-hole course having opened on July 4, 1966. So between the anniversary, the holiday weekend, live music, and fireworks after the show, it has all the makings of a memorable celebration.

Show Details

  • When: July 3, 2026, 5PM – 8PM
  • Where: Valley View Club, 9701 Illinois Highway 82, Cambridge, IL
  • Who: Bell & Field with Paul on sax
  • What to Expect: An evening of acoustic music followed by a fireworks show
  • Venue Website: valleyviewclub.org

Bell & Field acoustic duo

Bell & Field blends acoustic guitar and piano with a mix of familiar covers and original songs. With Paul on sax, the music takes on more texture and warmth, which should fit the setting nicely.  Paul has performed with many music legends such as the Doobie Brothers, B.B. King, 3 Dog Night, and more.  He is a current member of The Classics IV.

We tend to let each show find its own shape. Some songs feel right because of the room, some because of the season, and some simply because the crowd is ready for them. For this one, we’re looking forward to leaning into the feel of a summer evening at the club — relaxed, lively, and celebratory.

About the Venue

Valley View Club is an 18-hole golf course just south of Cambridge, set in a quiet country setting. Along with the course itself, the club features a clubhouse with a lounge and snack shop, plus an outdoor patio and seating area for enjoying the weather.

It feels like the right kind of place for a night like this: music outside, people gathered together, and fireworks to close out the evening. And with the club marking 60 years, there’s a little extra reason to celebrate.

If you’re in the area, come spend the evening with us. We’ll be playing from 5PM to 8PM, with the fireworks show following after our set.

Borderline on the River: Bell & Field Back at Tuggers

It was one of those blustery Saturday drives up to Port Byron where the wind keeps nudging the car and the Mississippi suddenly appears and makes everything feel familiar again. For Tom, it really is familiar – he spent his first eleven years just outside of town – so every time we roll past the river and into Main Street, the nostalgia dial jumps a few notches.

He pointed out where Dairy Dell used to be and told the story (again, in the best way) about playing Pac-Man and Centipede between bites of burgers and ice cream, and grabbing groceries at Winter’s and then Stone’s. Between that and the fact that we’ve played Tuggers a handful of times now, it’s starting to feel less like a gig and more like returning to a slightly rowdier version of home.

Burgers, a Blustery Start, and Getting Our Heads in the Game

Load-in at Tuggers is pretty straightforward: park, haul the piano and guitar in, weave around the regulars at the bar, try not to whack anyone with a keyboard stand. Once the gear was in, the first order of business was food. Tom had already eaten, and I (Greg) had the “Drive-Thru” burger. Don’t be fooled by the name.  It is a legit burger, and it was also served very quickly.  I’ll be honest: I needed it. I felt weirdly off at first, like my body was there but my brain was stuck somewhere south of I-80.

Right before we kicked off, a guy walked in and came right up near the piano. I said, “How you doing?” and he just stared at me with this intense, almost mean look. I don’t think he meant it that way; it was just very present. Meanwhile I was anything but. It threw me for a second, but it also snapped me out of whatever fog I was in. I remember thinking, “Okay, get your shit together and play.” So we did.

Trying New Things: Madonna by the Mississippi

Piano player performing at barWe’d been rehearsing a few tunes more heavily leading up to this one, and those ended up being the highlights for us. The big experiment of the night was debuting “Borderline.” It’s a Reggie Lucas–penned hit for Madonna that has always stuck with Tom, but not exactly the kind of song people expect from a piano–guitar acoustic duo performance in a river bar.

At rehearsal, Greg suggested we slow it way down and lean into the melancholy, almost like a late-night ballad instead of an ‘80s pop track. He had a musician friend (Geoff George) who had done something similar with the song once, and it stuck with him.  Once we tried it that way, we were in. Playing it live for the first time at Tuggers felt like letting people in on a secret. The room actually got a little quieter, and we could feel folks listening instead of just talking over us. That’s always a good sign.

Requests, Red Wine, and Familiar Faces

Musician performing in a barThe rest of the night, the crowd kept us on our toes with requests. We got a run of Simon & Garfunkel – enough that it turned into a mini-set inside the set – plus some Jimmy Buffett. There was one Buffett song Greg didn’t know, but Tom did, so we just went for it. Not flawless, but that’s half the fun.

Derek behind the bar took good care of everyone, including us. Every so often, a couple of Cabernets would just appear when we weren’t looking. If you’ve seen us before, you know red wine is basically our third band member, so that was appreciated.

One of the best parts of the night was seeing who walked through the door. Tom’s friend and colleague Carly Klavon showed up with a few friends, which was a great surprise. We got to catch up with them after the show, and Carly even put in a request for a specific song for our next Tuggers date on May 30. Consider the homework assigned.

We also spotted long-time friends Mike and Marla Skelton in the crowd. There’s something grounding about looking up mid-song and seeing people you’ve known for years nodding along, phones out filming, or just smiling into their drinks.

Tuggers, Hospitality, and What’s Next

Bell & Field: Professional Acoustic DuoThe staff at Tuggers once again made it feel easy to be there – from the kitchen turning out those burgers to the folks making sure we had what we needed between sets. By the end of the night, the wind outside had settled down, the river was calm, and inside it felt like we’d just spent three hours hanging out with old and new friends rather than grinding through a gig.

Somewhere between “Borderline,” the Simon & Garfunkel run, the surprise Cabernet deliveries, and the random intense eye contact guy, the night loosened up into something that reminded us why we keep doing this. We even walked out of there with a new date on the calendar for a July 3 celebration!

We’ll be back at Tuggers on May 30, and we’ve got that out-of-our-norm song brewing that may or may not lead to one of Tom’s colleagues getting a little wild.

If you’re looking for live music in Port Byron or you’ve got a place of your own that could use a piano–guitar soundtrack (with maybe a surprise Madonna ballad thrown in), we’d love to talk. You can reach us about your event here: https://www.bellandfieldmusic.com/book-acoustic-duo/.

Seger, Sax Solos, and Opening Weekend at Timberlake Resort

Opening Weekend with Ron, Paul, and a Room Full of Requests

We’d been looking forward to getting back to Timberlake Resort & Campground ever since last year’s show. Ron Swanson has clearly poured a lot of thought into this place – cabins, campsites, and a full calendar of live music – so being asked to help kick off opening weekend again felt pretty great.

This time around, we had a bonus: our friend Paul Weddle on sax. Having a sax along changes how we think about the set; suddenly you’re eyeing every tune like, “Can we sneak a sax solo in here?”

Paul & his wife Dottie made a day of it, heading up early and poking around a few shops on the way to Mt. Carroll. Tom and Malissa followed also ahead of schedule.  Getting there early meant we could all actually breathe a little: unhurried load‑in, time to catch up with Ron, and a chance to say hi to folks as they wandered in from their cabins.

From Bob Seger to Lionel Richie (and a Lot in Between)

Once we started playing, it didn’t take long before the requests started flying. Someone asked for Bob Seger, and that basically wrote the next 10 minutes of the set for us. If you’ve got a sax player like Paul and somebody wants Seger, you have to play “Old Time Rock and Roll.”

The woman who requested it knew exactly what she was doing – she wanted a sax feature. Paul stepped up and absolutely tore into that solo. I found myself grinning mid‑song thinking, “Yep, this is why you invite a sax player.” People were up dancing, singing the chorus back at us, the whole thing.

Not long after that, we got a curveball in the other direction: Lionel Richie’s “Stuck On You.” Total vibe change, but in the best way. Couples drifted into the open space in front of the stage and turned it into a slow‑dance floor. Watching people dance to a tune we don’t play every night is one of those reminders that a live acoustic duo performance doesn’t have to stay in one lane.

We also had multiple people asking for Hall & Oates. We’d never really tried any of their stuff together live, but we figured, why not? So we took a swing at “Rich Girl.” Was it flawless? No. Did it work because the crowd sang half the song with us? Absolutely.

Taking Songs Further Than the Rehearsal Room

Some of the best moments weren’t even the brand‑new requests, but songs we actually rehearse all the time that just hit differently in this room.

“Take the Long Way Home” turned into this wild back‑and‑forth between harmonica and sax during the solo. Harmonica would throw out a line, sax would answer it, and back and forth they went. Honestly, it felt more exciting than the original recording for a minute there.

We also got a request for “Small Town” by John Cougar Mellencamp. By the end, Tom let loose on that last “whoa!” and just held it while Paul harmonized the note on sax above. It’s not the sort of thing you can plan in detail, but when it locks in like that and the room responds with big applause, you remember it.

Another request that fit the sax perfectly was “Ophelia” by The Band. That tune already has a built‑in swagger, and with Paul on top of it, it felt like it was written for this lineup.

Trying Out Southern Cross on the Fly

The most challenging request of the night was “Southern Cross” by Crosby, Stills & Nash. All three of us love that song, but we had never played it together before.

We talked for maybe 20 seconds about the key and who was taking which harmony, and then just went for it. I’ll be honest, I expected at least one train‑wreck moment, but it actually came off really well. Good enough that we’re now talking about working it up properly and adding it to the regular setlist.

Somewhere in there we also snuck in “Summertime Blues” and a few other staples that always get feet moving. It wasn’t the biggest crowd Timberlake has ever had – last time there was bingo before us and the place was absolutely packed – but the people who were there were fully in it, and that matters more than headcount.

Cabins, Chicago Roots, and a Late Drive Home

 

Between sets and after the show, we had a chance to hang out with Ron and a bunch of guests. Greg and Ron realized they both grew up in the Chicago suburbs, so there was some instant “where’d you go to school as a kid?” talk mixed in with the usual music nerdery that all musicians and music enthusiasts love to speak.

Ron set up a cabin for Paul and Dottie, and they came back raving about how big, clean, and comfortable it was. Paul even offered to line up cabins for all of us next time, which sounds pretty tempting after a long night.

Both Paul and Tom brought their wives – which made the night feel less like a gig and more like a little road trip with friends. After we packed up, we chatted a bit more with Ron and some of the campers, but we were definitely running on fumes by the time we hit the road. The drive is about 75–90 minutes for Tom and Greg and closer to two hours for Paul, so rolling into the driveway around 1:30 AM was part of the deal. No regrets, though. The ride home went fast because we were already replaying the best moments in our minds.

Timberlake really leans into live music in Mt. Carroll – they’ve got shows going all season, including bands like Karla and the Phat Catz. If you’re looking for great music, it’s worth checking their schedule at timberlakeresort.com.

 

Thinking About Your Own Campground or Backyard Show?

Nights like this are exactly why we love doing the live acoustic duo (and trio) thing – some planned songs, some wild‑card requests, a few risks, and a lot of singing along.

If you’re putting together an event and want this kind of acoustic setup – guitars, keys, harmonies, and hopefully even some saxophone – we’d be happy to talk about it. You can reach us through this page: https://www.bellandfieldmusic.com/book-acoustic-duo/.

Returning to Doug’s for Another Private Night – May 2, 2026

Bell & Field at Private Event

It’s a little different when we’re playing for a private group, like this upcoming night for Doug’s crowd. It’s a chance to settle in with folks while they catch up, reminisce, and enjoy a few tunes in the background. There’s a certain sense of familiarity that comes with returning to a previous gig, mixed with a bit of anticipation for how it all might evolve.

The last time we were there was a Kentucky Derby party a few years back, and I still remember the vibe (eeek, sorry, but I’ll backtrack if needed) – friends laughing, hats aplenty, and the energy (better!) seemed infectious, to say the least. Doug was a great host then, and I can’t help but be curious about how the crowd will react this time around. For us, it’s also about seeing how we’ve grown as musicians since that last show.

We’ve been working on fine-tuning our set, with a couple of new songs we’ve added to the mix. I think we’re ready to step things up a notch, and who knows, we might even include a few horse-themed songs to really get in the spirit!

Details

  • Date: May 2, 2026
  • Time: 7PM – 9PM
  • Location: Private Event – Kewanee, IL
  • Who is playing: Bell & Field
  • What to expect: A mix of familiar and new songs, possibly some horse songs!

Bell & Field acoustic duo

As Bell & Field, we often lean into a blend of acoustic sounds that convey both intimacy and fun. For a private event like this, the set tends to be a little more relaxed. We get to pick songs that really resonate with the crowd in that moment.

About the Venue

We won’t be dishing out any specifics since it’s a private event, but returning to Doug’s means we likely already have a history with the folks gathered. The last show there was quite enjoyable, filled with laughter and a strong sense of connection. Incidents like that create a sort of anticipation when we come back.

Looking forward to another fun night with Doug and friends!

A Quiet Sunday at Hidden Hills Vineyard & Winery

Sunday we pointed the car toward Galesburg and wound our way out to Hidden Hills Vineyard & Winery for a rare Sunday afternoon show. The sky was that flat early-March gray, but as soon as we pulled up and saw the building tucked into the hillside and the edge of the woods, it already felt like we’d stepped out of town for a bit.

Finding Our People on a Slow Day

Addi met us at the door, halfway through tidying up one of their outdoor pods – basically a clear, heated bubble where you can sit with a glass of wine and still feel like you’re outside. On a chilly, overcast day, it looked pretty tempting. We hauled the keyboard, guitar, and PA inside, and then met Dave, one of the owners. We did that familiar musician thing: a quick chat about business and life, whether to expect a crowd, and where to tuck us so the sound would carry without taking over the room.

Hidden Hills has a long, nicely decorated room, and we set up at one end. Once we hit the first chords of “You Don’t Mess Around With Jim,” we had our answer about turnout. It was quiet. For the first stretch, we played mostly to staff and the clink of glassware. We enjoy it regardless and understand that sometimes there are days like that.

Eventually one group came in, settled at a table, and stayed for the entire live acoustic duo performance. That was it – not exactly a packed house, but they listened, they clapped, they tipped and they hung with us all afternoon. We were grateful they chose to spend their Sunday with us, and you could feel that they were actually hearing the songs, not just talking over them.

Letting the Room Do the Work

 

One of the nice surprises at Hidden Hills was how the sound moved through the space. Even though the room is long, we didn’t have to crank anything. The piano, guitar, and two voices just kind of floated down to the far end without us pushing the volume. For us, that’s the sweet spot: enough sound so you can hear every lyric, but not so much that you’re shouting over your glass of red.

We later chatted with Dave about the place. Most of their big days are when the weather is good and everyone’s out on that patio looking over the vines. You could tell he was already thinking ahead to warmer weekends. We found ourselves thinking the same thing – how this room and that hillside would feel with the doors open, people wandering in and out, and us tucked in a corner playing into the evening. Hopefully we’ll get another opportunity.

Digging Through Decades

With a smaller crowd and a relaxed pace, we had room to stretch a little. We ended up wandering through the ’50s, ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, and even a few ’90s tunes. A lot of what we pulled out lined up with what Dave loves, which made it fun – every so often we’d see him look up from behind the bar with that “oh, this one” expression.

There’s a particular kind of camaraderie that happens when it’s basically two musicians, a handful of listeners, and a lot of empty chairs. You stop worrying about how many people are there and just lean into the songs you really care about.

Turnout is always a bit of a coin toss. Some days you’re squeezing between tables and dodging people on the dance floor; some days you can count the audience on one hand. This one landed on the quieter side, but the wine was excellent, the room sounded good, and the people who were there seemed genuinely glad we were playing. That goes a long way.

Looking Toward Patio Weather

By the time we packed up and stepped back outside, the sky was still gray, but the hillside and rows of vines made it easy to picture a summer afternoon out there with a full patio and open doors. We’d love to come back when the weather’s cooperating and see what Hidden Hills feels like with that crowd.

If you’re running a winery, brewery, or any spot that could use a low-key piano-and-guitar soundtrack like this, we’d be happy to talk about bringing Bell & Field to your place. You can get in touch with us here: https://www.bellandfieldmusic.com/book-acoustic-duo/.

Basketball, Sticky Keys, and Sax Solos at Crescent City Tap

Galva had its priorities straight on Friday night: the high school boys were playing the regional championship game, and the Wildcats were in it. That was great news for the town… and it meant the first two hours of our show at Crescent City Tap felt more like a private concert than a typical Friday night.

A slow start, four people, and a lot of freedom

When we kicked off at 6:00, there were maybe four people in the room. We’ve seen Crescent City Tap packed shoulder-to-shoulder, and we’ve seen it like this. Either way, we’re grateful to plug in (or in our case, plug mostly in) and play for whoever shows up.

The quiet start gave us room to stretch out and dust off some songs that hadn’t seen the light of day in a while. We pulled out “You Don’t Mess Around With Jim,” “Can’t Buy Me Love,” and “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.” Some of them were a little rough around the edges, but that was part of the fun.

We also leaned into some slower tunes that fit the low-key vibe: “And I Love Her,” “Wildfire,” and a very tender “This Guy’s in Love With You.” It felt more like we were playing in a living room than doing a typical live acoustic duo performance at a bar.

Guest sax, sticky keys, and a John Denver request

We were a trio for this one, with Paul Weddle on saxophone. His horn was basically singing all night. “Ophelia” by The Band was a standout — that tune already has a built-in looseness, and with sax lines weaving around the guitar and piano, it turned into this joyful little circus of sound.

Earlier in the day, though, Greg had a mishap and spilled some wine on his keys. Oops! Throughout the night, a few notes would suddenly jump out louder than they should, and some chords just… weren’t the chords they were supposed to be. We joked about it on the mic, because what else can you do? No problems, that’s just music served with a side of real life.

We got a request for “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” which is always a treat to play — John Denver is one of Tom’s heroes — so we were happy to lean into that one. Later on, someone called out “Careless Whisper.” With Paul there, it was tempting, but we knew we didn’t have that one ready. Instead, we pivoted to “Faith.” It worked, but it had been a while, making it jokingly seem like some of the tunes were being held together with duct tape and optimism.  Everyone laughed and rolled with it.

Take the Long Way Home and the crowd finally arrives

One of the musical highlights for us was “Take the Long Way Home.” With Paul on sax and Tom on harmonica, we stretched the middle out into a call-and-response section that went a few extra measures longer than usual. It felt like we were just entertaining ourselves for a minute there, and the folks who were in the room were right there with us.

Then the basketball game ended.

All of a sudden, the door started opening more often, and the last hour turned into the kind of Crescent City Tap entertainment we’re used to: tables filling up, conversations getting louder, and people clapping loudly between songs. We got to ride that wave for the final stretch of the night, and it felt good to land some of those last tunes with a fuller room.

Family in the room and a post-show slot machine “encore”

On top of everything else, Greg’s dad came out for the show, and his daughter happened to be in town too. Having them both there was a rare moment that made it feel quietly important.  But if sticky keys isn’t an icebreaker, then what is?

After we packed up the gear, the three of us (plus family) wandered over to the slots. Greg tossed in $20 and said, “If I win, I’m splitting it with everybody.” The machine was hot — little wins kept popping up — and it felt like it was just about to really hit if we fed it another $20. But the night already felt like a win, so we cashed out and called it.

Meanwhile, the cautious optimism continues for the keyboard. A lot of times, liquid residue dries out and things go back to normal. Since the weird notes were only happening sometimes, we’re hoping there wasn’t an electrical short. We have Hidden Hills Winery in Galesburg on the calendar for Sunday, so fingers crossed that the keys decided to behave.

Thanks, Galva

To everyone who chose live music over or after the basketball game, and to everyone who came in after the final buzzer — thanks for listening, requesting songs, and laughing with us when the gear didn’t quite cooperate. Nights like this are why we keep coming back to Crescent City Tap.

If you’re looking for live music in Galva (or anywhere nearby) and want a piano–guitar acoustic duo with the option of some saxophone on top, we’d love to talk. You can reach us about your own event here: https://www.bellandfieldmusic.com/book-acoustic-duo/.
