Jay Heritage CenterHelp us welcome Margaret McDuffie & Co. for our second "Jams at Jay" on March 1 from 7:00 - 9:30pm. JHC Members $20, General Admission $25. First set at 7:15pm. Second set at 8:45pm. Admission includes both sets! Joining Margaret will be Steve Raleigh on guitar, Art Labriola on keys, and T. Xiques on drums. All are exceptional - Labriola is a winner of a Grammy, an Emmy, and a Clio.
"McDuffie can make you stare straight down the barrel of a tough current truth one minute, and the next have you thinking about how much pure, complex, welcome power lies in a simple love song."
The influences run deep, and though almost no music isn’t an influence, there are some key voices that lie under this sound: The Temptations, Elvis Presley, Neil Young, Odetta and Joni Mitchell. The arrangements have an old-fashioned feel though the message is insistently current, and the musicianship is always solid - at times downright sublime.While she writes jazz songs in both old and new styles, the jazz sensibility has added a whole new field of color across the her folky blues and added a complexity and richness to the music that you don’t often hear.
And don't miss...
