July 15 - Nouveaux Honkies and The Mark Yaxley Duo. The evening begins with jazz-blues guitar master Marc Yaxley, who has opened for jazz great Ramsey Lewis, trumpeter Maynard Ferguson and blues rocker Warren Haynes. Since moving to North Caroline in 1993, Marc has recorded six CDs and now resides in Brevard, NC, where he teaches Jazz and Classical guitar. He will be joined by Cameron Austin on bass.
“If Johnny Cash and Freddy King had a baby it would be the Nouveaux Honkies,” said South Florida’s Sun Sentinel Online. This violin, guitar, bass and drum quartet is best described as Roots ‘n Roll that rocks—you just have to hear it for yourself. Singer/guitarist, Patrick Timothy O’Donnell’s vocal style is said to be “an amalgam of Van Morrison and Willy De Ville.” Add in violinist, Rebecca Dawkins with her crafty lead lines and poppy rhythms and their unique blend of blues, swing and country is described as a reinvention of the musical wheel. Also featured are drummer Brian Menendez and bassist Joe Veloz. This quartet, now based in Southeast Florida is a favorite of festivals from coast-to-coast.
