Hurleyville, NY – Ever wonder what happens when you put a legendary rock-a-billy and country singer, a twangy steel guitar player, a world-class jazz and bluegrass guitarist, an R&B bass player, a seasoned keyboardist, a folk singer/conga player, and an Americana duo together on stage?
Well, now you can find out…
