Young acoustic musicians rising to the top
From the Bozeman Daily Chronicle (MT)
Two young solo artists combine forces for a special evening of acoustic music at Pilgrim Congregational Church, as the Bozeman Folklore Society presents Mark Erelli and Jake Armerding in concert on Saturday, Nov. 6, at 7:30 p.m.
All tickets will only be available at the door, which open at 7 p.m. General admission is $15, and $13 for BFS members and seniors. For more information contact Rik James at (406) 586-4123.
Earlier this year Erelli released his fifth solo album, "Hillbilly Pilgrim," garnering rave reviews. Paste magazine said it, "does Western swing proud, as it's brimming over with wry, heartfelt songcraft, invigorating tempos, and pedal-steel guitar dazzling as an Arizona sunset." And No Depression magazine described it as, "shot through with music that could've sat comfortably inside a country jukebox from the 1930s or '40s. Finger-snapping, jukebox ready stomp."
When a kid grows up in Massachusetts, you'd think he'd be safe from stuff like bluegrass music. Fortunately for his audiences, this wasn't the case for Compass Records recording artist Jake Armerding. Thanks to a mandolinist father who spent his weekends touring the region with newgrass group Northern Lights, Jake was doomed from the start.

This is a great group... I have heard them perform a number of times. I also wanted to turn people on to another group that possesses a similar flavor. "Priscilla Lane" which is also a duo that incorporates a real folksy acoustic sound with some blues influences. Staci Spector and Brandi Andres are doing things that have not been seen before. They really are a special group.
