Extraordinarily talented Kathy Kallick has been writing and performing traditional bluegrass music since the mid 1970s. Fifteen album releases later, this award-winning artist is continuing to wow with the Kathy Kallick Band. Their most recent album, “Between the Hollow and the High Rise” has been receiving great praise from critics, and the single “Where is My Little Cabin Home” has had more bluegrass chart time than any other song in 2010-2011.
The current Kathy Kallick Band lineup has been described by Chris Stuart of Sing Out! as “a wonderful combination of youth and experience.” Adventurous mandolin player Tom Bekeny has been singing and playing with Kallick since 1996. Alaskan born, Bay Area resident Dan Booth contributes soulful lead and harmony singing in addition to acoustic bass. Greg Booth, Dan’s father, plays the banjo and dobro, and won a dobro playing competition in 2006 after playing for only one year. Annie Staninec, at the age of 22, has already won the Fiddler Player of the Year Award from the Northern California Bluegrass Society twice.
Jeanie & Chuck's Country Roundup open the show with honky tonk and bluegrass favorites on acoustic instruments and their specialty of strong, rich duets.
