Jeff & Vida

8:00 PM, Friday, May 16th
Blessings, 823 Reynolda Rd, Winston-Salem

Jeff Burke and Vida Wakeman have been described as “unclassifiable but terrific...a bluegrass influenced group with a bluesiness at its core and a powerful stage presence” and as “one of New Orleans’ local treasures.”  Their performances are energetic and raw. 

Vida plays rhythm guitar while Jeff plays lead guitar, banjo and mandolin with equal prowess.  They have tight, well arranged harmonies with a rich texture and dynamic edge.  Their original songs evoke stark images of heartache and hard times in the American landscape. 

This talented duo has performed for Fiddle & Bow several times over the past few years and it’s always a treat having them.  Don’t miss ‘em!
