CADILLAC — Fruits, vegetables, BBQ, a live beehive, acoustic music and Elvis — it s all happening this summer at the Cadillac Farmers Market, which will be returning to the Market
CADILLAC â Every Tuesday at 2 p.m., the smiles at Forest and Farm home school at the corner of Seeley Road and M-55 get a little bigger with the arrival of Dan Belleville, enthusiastically known by the kids as Dan, Dan the music man.
Belleville, who studied guitar at Berklee College of Music in Boston, was brought on to teach music lessons at Up North Arts several months ago but with COVID-19 cases still surging in the area, he hasn t had too many clients lately. I could start again but I really havenât pursued it much, Belleville said. Not sure how to start up again really with this up and down COVID thing.
It speaks to his soul. It helps him be thankful. It helps him be kind.
Like many, Matthew hasnât had time to focus on his wants and needs. He has been busy caring for others. Whether it is his five children or taking care of his older parents, Matthew has been focused on them.
It is for that reason, Matthewâs girlfriend Susan Giftos decided to get him a special birthday present last month â a guitar. Although Matthew was in the band during high school and played percussion, he hasnât picked up any musical instrument since high school but has always wanted to learn how to play the six-string.
