The January Robson Unplugged event was a smashing success. Between the Moore Quintet playing all of the old jazz standards and Wally, Marilyn and Connie playing their unique brand of country and mountain music including their use of ukuleles, the Grill was packed and the applause was loud. Many, many thanks to those of you who came out and supported us and made special requests to have these same performers return on future nights.
For February we want to maintain the same high level of great music and have three different acts of local talent right here from Robson Ranch lined up. Our 5:00 set will feature Kim Gibbs, Howard Van Arsdale and Tom Sewell who have formed a trio specifically for this event. Kim is a great singer and will be supported by Howard on guitar and Tom on banjo and harmonica. At 6:00 we will feature Patricia Ambrose. I have the good fortune of backing her on guitar. Patricia did a great job last year, and you won’t want to miss her performance. At 7:00 we will have another returning group consisting of Jeff Jones and Skip Syer. These two are the lead singers for the Time Bandits and do a great job as an acoustic guitar duo. Look for all three acts to play the songs we are familiar with and have come to love.
The groups are set and everything is in place. All we need now is your continued support. Come on out for a great night of entertainment, food and company. Put it on your calendar: February 1 at the Grill.
