Jeni & Billy’s harmonies, guitar, banjo, mandolin, and fine songs will be backed by Craig Eastman on fiddle, lap steel, and mandolin, Dillon O’Brian on keyboards and harmony vocals, Denny Weston Jr on percussion, and Dave Way (who produced the recording) on percussion and guitar.  With a group of this caliber, who seldom perform together in this configuration, you can expect a spontaneous spirit of freshness and fun that adds greatly to the evening.  Combined with all this are Jeni’s introductory stories that give their songs a fuller context, deepening the experience.  Don’t miss this opportunity!
