Long regarded by peers, fans, and critics alike as two of North America’s finest instrumentalists, mandolinist John Reischman and guitarist John Miller have joined forces in an exciting foray into the world of jazz and Latin music. Both are outstanding players and composers known for an abundance of taste and tone, effortlessly weaving a seductive and irresistible sound that gives audiences a memorable musical experience.
Reischman was termed “one of the great unsung heroes of contemporary mandolin playing” by David Grisman, while Miller’s highly original fingerpicking style was described as “magnificent” by Jazz Journal.
Their CD releases “The Singing Moon” and “The Bumpy Road” have delighted both critics and fans with their captivating blend of beautiful melodies and infectious rhythms. “I have a hunch we’re suffering from a severe case of melodic deprivation in America today,” says Miller. That will definitely not be the case for audiences enchanted with the sophisticated playing of Miller and Reischman and charmed by the genuine warmth of these two veteran performers.
Admission is $10 at the door, and light refreshments will be served at the break.
Try a sample of their music to hear what everyone will be talking about come next Monday morning.
