Jennings & Keller is Laurie Jennings Oudin and Dana Keller. They hail from Miami, Florida where for years Laurie ran The Main Street Cafe, one of Florida's premier music venues. They call their eclectic music "Fusion Folk Americana."
Laurie was formerly a Shakespearean actress and has been a singer and songwriter for many years. Dana Keller is a veteran pedal steel, dobro and guitar player who has spent years performing on the stage or in the studio with the likes of Vince Gill, Ricky Skaggs, Stevie Wonder, Dave Mason and Marvin Gaye to name a few. He has opened for, among others, Spirit, Pure Prairie League, Gordon Lightfoot, Waylon Jennings and Buck Owens. The synergy created from these two diverse talents is apparent in the responses they are getting from festival directors, club owners and audience members.
This will be their first appearance for Fiddle & Bow and we're excited about bringing them to our stage.

Pete Morton is without question one of England's finest songwriters. In a scene not known so much for songwriters he stands out along with Richard Thompson and Jez Lowe at the top of the heap. In addition to being an excellent songwriter, Pete is also a strong interpreter of traditional songs and his album "Trespass" from the late 90's featured all traditional folk songs.
He has released a number of critically acclaimed albums since he hit the scene in the mid-80s, heralded by no less than English folk legend Martin Carthy. Pete has performed a number of times for Fiddle & Bow but it's been several years since his last trip to our stage.
Don't miss this opportunity to hear one of the best writers on the folk scene anywhere.
