About
Award winning songwriter, Glenn Elvig, originally from Houston, Texas, now resides in Saint Paul, Minnesota, where he works as a sculptor/furniture designer....and a singer/songwriter when the occasion arises. In 2011, after a studio fire, he started to play music as a distraction and invited a few friends over to start playing music together. These informal get- togethers turned into Creek House. Creek House has become the gathering place for some of the best musicians traveling this planet today... Michael Peter Smith...Lonnie Knight...David Mallett...Danny O'Keefe...Juni Fisher...Billy Dean...Claudia Schmidt...Sally Rogers...Michael Johnson...Jonathan Edwards...Doug MacLeod...Mike Dowling...Roy Book Binder...The DonJuans...Dan Mahar...Tom Paxton...Curtis & Loretta...Mustard's Retreat...Verlon Thompson...Michael Peterson...Gretchen Peters...David Grier...Lucie Blue Tremblay...Bryan Bowers...Mary Flower...Catfish Keith...Laurence Juber...Dean Magraw...Peter Ostrushko...Brooks Williams...Pat Donohue...Brandon Lee Adams...Adam Granger...Richard Smith...Beppe Gambetta...Tim Stafford....and the list includes so many more! Creek House Concerts....creekhouseconcerts.com....is now considered to be "The Carnegie Hall of House Concerts". Glenn has had the good fortune of opening for these amazing artists that are out on tour...and now will be doing a bit of touring as well. "Bullfrogs Singing In The Night" and "Poop Eating Dog" are about to go viral!

Recently, Glenn sang in the chorus on David Mallett's song "Celebration" on the CD of the same name. Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul, and Mary also sang in the choir. Following that, Glenn did a mini tour with David down to Chatfield, Minnesota and opened for David at the Chatfield Center for the Arts. Earlier in the year, Glenn made the same trip with the legendary Roy Book Binder. Glenn hosted Roy's 75th birthday party/concert at Creek House on October 5, 2018. Creek House has Roy's 80th already on the books....and his 81st on September 20, 2024!
May 2019 found Glenn up in Nova Scotia, Canada playing a short solo set and then singing harmony with Lucie Blue Tremblay. More shows together and some songwriting and recording is ahead in 2024.
Glenn performed at The Ark in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on February 8, 2020. It was the debut of Glenn's first musical collaboration with his lifelong friend Carolyn Hall. Carolyn wrote the lyrics to "My Dog Shoes" and Glenn set them to music. "My Dog Shoes" was the first song Carolyn had written in 93 years. Glenn was the opening act for Mustard's Retreat. Looking forward to a bit of touring with David Tamulevich and Libby Glover in 2024.
Glenn played at the Backus Center in International Falls in support of internationally known artist, Danny O'Keefe on Saturday, October 14, 2023. O'Keefe is a fascinating and brilliant songwriter who penned and performs songs like "Good Time Charley's Got The Blues"...... "The Road" ..... "He Would Have Loved You More Than Eva Braun".... and "Along For The Ride".
Glenn is a proud endorser of David Flammang guitars ( flammangguitars.com ) ... Terry Kennedy guitars (kennedyguitars.com ) ... ands John Walker guitars ( johnwalkerguitars.com ).
Music is a great connector...a great healer...and a great joy. And it is best when shared with others! Play on!
