Cousin Jack’s Mariposa Evenings - brought to you by The Mariposa County Arts Council and its many fine sponsors – continues into the forth weekend of thirteen, presenting The Jespersons on Friday, June 27, and The Redding Bros. Band on Saturday, June 28.
The Jespersons
Performing original Neo/World Folk Americana music, The Jespersons sing and play in an “around the campfire” style found in Australia, homeland of half of the duo, Kaye Jesperson. She and multi-instrumentalist husband Jared are adding extra members to create a full band experience for this performance. Songs and stories are shared with the audience that make the experience fun for the whole family in a folky, community way.
The Redding Bros. Band
The Redding Family has deep roots in the local music scene; a heritage spanning decades, with The Redding Bros. Band being the most current exponant. Blue collar working men by day, musicians by night, the band will take the audience back in time, performing hits from the 60s and 70s, with the distinct chance of other family members and friends sitting in to expand the show.
More on each of these groups can be found on their web &/or facebook page.
