Bluegrass stars Michael Daves and Jacob Jolliff have just released a new duo album, We Like Jim & Jesse! (Wild Geranium Records), honouring the legendary Jim & Jesse and the Virginia Boys – one of the longest-running and most innovative brother duets in bluegrass history – by blending classic 1950s bluegrass styles with the duo’s signature high-energy improvisation and harmonies.
What happens when a New York “leading light” meets one of the country’s most elite mandolinists? We are incredibly excited to host Michael Daves and Jacob Jolliff!
🗽 Michael Daves: Described by the New York Times as a “leading light of the NYC bluegrass scene,” this Grammy nominee has shared the stage with icons like Chris Thile and Tony Trischka. His style is gritty, soulful, and perfectly balances the “high lonesome” sound with a modern edge.
✨ Jacob Jolliff: One of the most notable contemporary mandolinists in the world today. Whether touring with Béla Fleck or the Yonder Mountain String Band, Jacob’s technical skill and improvisational genius put him in a league of his own.
This is a masterclass in bluegrass virtuosity. Don’t miss it! Get your tickets here wegottickets.com/Daves&Jolliff
