Coyotee Moon
NEWS
Well howdy folks! It's been a while. Coyotee Moon has gone through a few changes and we're happy to introduce our new bass player Terry Lewis. Terry is Steve's brother and brings to us a versatile talent that is hard to find. Not only playing bass and singing third part harmony, Terry has been writing his own songs for many years and we are anxious to share our new sound with our fans, friends and families. We will be working on a new CD soon and will keep you all posted when it is complete.
We are excited about our schedule this year. We will be doing some traveling around the western states mostly but hope to get a few gigs back east and working on a few down south. We'll keep you posted.
Cowboy Legends - Every Memorial Day weekend for about the past 5 years, I have hosted an event at the Fielding Garr Ranch on Antelope Island, which happens to be in the middle of the Great Salt Lake. The 5th Annual Cowboy Legends Cowboy Poetry and Music Gathering hosted a wagon train, 38 entertainers from around the Western States, camping, horse back riding and some of the best entertainment you could ever imagine. Other than the 'hurricane' winds we had on Friday, the weather was perfect and this is the first year I can remember NOT having any rain! As I sit here sipping my morning coffee, and thinking back over the past four days, I know in my heart the good Lord has shared in the coming together of this extended family and the camaraderie between all the entertainers is extraordinary. Sunday Morning we had over 110 attendees at Cowboy Church and Marion Manwill is to be commended for his great service that he provides in the sharing of the spirit of the Lord.
The wagon train - to see the wagons coming down the road and pulling into the ranch was a site to behold! Thank you to Paul Bliss and Joel Murphey of the Utah Western Heritage Foundation for their efforts to bring more awareness and support to the Huntsman Cancer Foundation.
The vendors - what a great addition to this event. Each vendor provided an activity for kids to learn something about their trade. Such as western art painting, leather work, gold panning, photography - what better way to keep the history of the American West alive than to educate our children!
The dinner show Friday evening hosted 35 attendees. The Drifter & Miss Judy, Laurie Tye and Paul Bliss put on a great show. Saturday evening hosted about 50 attendees with Coyotee Moon, Sam DeLeeuw and Stan Tixier. What a great time we had!
Now about the potluck campfire....WOW, what can I say! It was totally overwhelming to see the participation in this evening of sharing the work, the fun, the food and the entertainment of our poets, muscians and guests!! I lost count at about 120!
Monday morning started off with a bang!! with News 13 and their morning show. Getting up at 4 am was tough but we made it through and hopefully it will bring more awareness to this event in coming years. With that, and the warm weather, we finished out the day with a record number of guests at the ranch.
Speaking of numbers....folks, we raised the bar - 2009 brought in a little over 5000 people for the 3 day weekend, and for 2010, for comparison purposes, using just Saturday - Monday, 6000 . WOW!
Next stop for Coyotee Moon is the Bear Lake Cowboy Poetry Gathering coming up the weekend of July 9th. During the interim, I'll be headed for Portland for a road trip with my kindred sister Debbie and then it's off to Nebraska for a week and returning just in time to head up to the Bear Lake Gathering.
Stay tuned for more adventure from Coyotee Moon!

Coyotee Moon is a dynamic western music trio. They not only write their own songs and sing about the ?cowboy? way of life, but rounding up the cattle, branding the calves and playing music around the campfire is what they love the most.
The three part harmonies are tightly blended together with Steve Lewis on lead guitar, Lisa Stubblefield on rhythm, and Terry Lewis on bass.
Coyotee Moon has performed for all kinds of venues throughout the US including Branson, Missouri, Nashville, Tennessee, Scottsdale, Arizona, Reno/Lake Tahoe, Nevada, Lewiston, Idaho.
On stage, this western music trio has an amazing magic that creates a great rapport with their audience. Their passion for preserving the western way of life is reflected in the songs they play and sing.
Their first CD entitled ?Back Before Barbed Wire Fences? was released in January 2004 and a second CD "Cowboy Legacy" was released in 2007; both include several original western songs.

Why this name?
We chose Coyotee Moon because we wanted something different that would stand out and be remembered!
Do you play live?
Coyotee Moon has performed in Branson and Mountain View, Missouri, Lake Tahoe and Virginia City, Nevada, and numerous cowboy poetry gatherings including the Lewis Clark festival in Lewiston, Idaho and the Cedar Cowboy Gathering. They currently perform at the American West Heritage Center in Logan, Utah. Our most special moment would be having the opportunity to play in Branson, Missouri!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet has provided an open highway for musicians to share their music with the world!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes, we would like the opportunity to open up the past to our younger generation and to teach them the history of American West through our music.
Band History:
LISA STUBBLEFIELD
The ?ram rod? of the group, so to speak, gained her singing talent as a child around the piano while her mother played. In later years, while working in the Alaska oil field, Lisa developed an interest in learning to play the guitar and at the age of 33, a friend gave her a guitar, showed her a few cords and she was soon playing for dances and parties.
After moving back to Utah, Lisa joined the Western Music Association (Utah Chapter) where she served as the secretary for 5 years. She is a working member of the Ogden Cowboy Poetry and Music Festival committee and most recently has been added to the board of directors for the Cowboy Poets of Utah.
Lisa?s plays rhythm on the twelve string guitar and has written a few of her own songs. Her greatest influences in music were Patsy Cline, Marty Robbins and watching the cowboys on the silver screen. Singing around the campfire is one of her favorite things to do but her true love in life is riding and playing with horses especially the Mustangs.
STEVE LEWIS
Steve was born in the Malad, Idaho area to a musical family. His father played rag time music and really could make the piano shake, and his mother would sing to him as a child.
While growing up, he would listen to the old western songs and sing along with the country artists. At age 13, Steve ?long-term? borrowed his brothers? guitar and would pick out the notes learning to play along with the songs on the radio.
He has been playing and singing for more than 30 years with a combination of country and country rock music throughout the intermountain west and has opened for several major artists throughout his career.
Steve?s plays lead guitar for the group and has written many of the songs on their CDs. His greatest influences in music were Elvis Presley, Marty Robbins, and Gene Autry.
TERRY LEWIS
In the Fall of 2009, Steve's brother Terry joined Coyotee Moon playing bass and singing 3rd part. Terry has also brought to us a talent for song writing that is seldom found. He resides with his wife Norma Jean in Hooper, Utah and he brings many years of musical talent to the group. Terry enjoys riding horses, watching western movies and spending time with his family.
Coyotee Moon?s performances has taken them from around the campfire and brandings to some of the largest cattlemen?s trade shows and conventions in the nation. Also played Branson, Missouri, Denver Market, Nashville?s Opryland Hotel and many cowboy poetry gatherings throughout the West.
The harmonies you'll hear from Coyotee Moon tightly blend together and on stage, they all have an amazing magic that creates a great rapport with their audience. Their passion for preserving the western way of life is reflected in the songs they play and sing.

Your influences?
We all grew up with Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, Rex Allen, and all the other great western singers of days gone by. The cowboys of the silver screen gave us heros to pattern after, and the serenity of the western way of life. Patsy Montana, one of the greatest female artists to ever hit the stage, left a legacy of living the cowboy way of life.
Favorite spot?
It's hard to pin down one spot. However, I would have to say riding down the trail on our ponies and crooning around the campfire under the stars at night.
Equipment used:
Steve plays lead on a 6-string acoustic guitar and some times throughs in a little fiddle. Lisa plays rhythm on the 12 string and Terry plays bass.
