Chicago Sun Times:
"Ry Cooder is as good a point of reference as any for newcomers to Manx. But
while such comparisons may work to describe Manx's fretwork, the raw sensuality
of his sound is all his own. Rarely has folk blues sounded as hauntingly
beautiful." |

Ginny Mitchell :
First-time listeners and longtime fans alike are drawn in by her honest and
soulful delivery, which has been compared to Emmylou Harris, Shawn Colvin,
Linda Ronstadt , Roseanne Cash and the great Patsy Cline. Her
accomplishments started in British Columbia , Canada , where 21-year-old Ginny
became the winner of the Canadian County Music Associations Best New female
Vocalist. This high-profile win eventually lead her to tour throughout Canada
and the US as an opening act for Tammy Wynette, k.d. lang,
Ricky Skaggs, Asleep at the Wheel and Greg Allman. Her
independent CD, Just to Hear Your Voice released in 2006, has also
received praise and airplay across the US . Joining Ginny will be Steve
Palazzo and David Rengers.

Montana
Skies |
|
|
A must see live concert experience: a duo with the full spectrum of an orchestra crossed with the energy of a rock band. Montana Skies creates a sound much bigger than any two instruments should rightfully produce. By fusing traditional sounds with new technology, they generate music with multiple layers, textures and rhythm...and it’s all created live! In concert the duo delves into music from Pink Floyd to Vivaldi, as well as their own, award winning, originals that have been featured everywhere from NPR to the Travel Channel. Montana Skies’ touring has taken them all across the US, Canada and to Asia and Russia. Jonathan and Jennifer play cello, six-string electric cello, spanish/classical guitar, and steel string guitar. http://www.montanaskiesmusic.com |

Montana Skies
(Jonathon and Jennifer Adams) are an electrifying live concert
experience: a duo with the full spectrum of an orchestra crossed with the
energy of a rock band. Montana Skies creates a sound much bigger than any two
instruments should rightfully produce. By fusing traditional sounds with new
technology, they generate music with multiple layers, textures and rhythm...and
it's all created live! In concert the duo delves into music from Pink
Floyd to Vivaldi, as well as their own, award winning, originals
that have been featured everywhere from NPR to the Travel
Channel. Montana Skies' touring has taken them all across the US, Canada
and to Asia and Russia. Jonathan and Jennifer play cello, six-string electric
cello, Spanish/classical guitar, and steel string guitar. Last year at their
Fiddling Cricket show at Mission City Coffee they absolutely amazed the
audience with the dynamism, skill, and range of their performance.

Jacquie
Manning and Rich Prezioso return to us after a long absence, touring
from their Chicago area base. This folk duo has taken, according to them,
"years of careful indecision" to come up with their eclectic and bizarre
mix of Celtic, swing, blues, country and originals (which are usually
hilarious). In addition to outstanding songwriting, singing and showmanship,
they also play a number of instruments very well, and even yodel sometimes.
Always an absolute treat!
