Favorite musicians returning to Sisters

Two of Sisters' favorite musicians are returning to town this month in separate concerts.

David Jacobs-Strain and The Crunk Mountain Boys will rock Angeline's Bakery this Friday, August 12, at 7 p.m.

David Jacobs-Strain is a fierce slide-guitar player and song poet from Oregon. He has performed several times at the Sisters Folk Festival and makes Sisters a regular tour stop.

He's known for both his virtuosity and spirit of emotional abandon; his live show moves from humorous, subversive blues, to delicate balladry, and then swings back to swampy rock and roll. It's a range that ties Jacobs-Strain to his own generation and to guitar-slinger troubadours like Robert Johnson and Jackson Browne. He will be joined by the always-sassy Crunk Mountain Boys who keep the crowds dancing and begging for more.

Angeline's Bakery has lots of dinner options, desserts, and beer and wine at the bar. Cover is $10.

Supervised children are always welcome.

Keith Greeninger will perform solo-acoustic in a house concert at The Barn on Sunday, August 21, at 7 p.m.

As a singer-songwriter, Keith paints intricate portraits of the human condition with powerful melodic images; deep, engaging guitar rhythms and husky, heart-wrenching vocals.

His masterfully crafted tunes and powerful presence have earned him the top songwriting awards at the prestigious Telluride Blue Grass Festival, the Kerrville Folk Festival and the Napa Valley Folk Festival.

Keith has toured the national folk and Americana circuit extensively for over two decades.

He's performed at festivals and legendary venues, appeared on countless national radio shows, and shared stages with dozens of the country's best-known artists.

Keith's records and personal appearances have garnered him a legion of devoted fans, and the respect, admiration and appreciation of music critics far and wide.

Greeninger has been a regular fixture at the Sisters Folk Festival and its song camps.

The Barn is located at 68467 Three Creek Road, about three-quarters of a mile south of downtown (take Elm Street).
