Event Description

JOHN REISCHMAN & THE JAYBIRDS


Hillsboro, Oregon – With a unique traditional sound, mandolin master, John Reischman and the Jaybirds, a top-flight band in bluegrass music will be entertaining all that join us at the Glenn & Viola Walters Cultural Arts Center on Friday, November 6 at 8:00 pm. Tickets are $20 in advance or $22 day of show.

“Top-notch musicians and singers deliver an unusual repertoire of originals, bluegrass classics, and old-time music,” says Acoustic Guitar magazine. In addition to John, the Jaybirds include highly regarded veterans Jim Nunally on guitar and vocals, Trisha Gagnon on bass and vocals, Nick Hornbuckle on banjo and Greg Spatz on fiddle.

John Reischman and the Jaybirds offer a blend of vintage gems, original vocal songs and trademark original instrumentals – variously bluesy, hard-edge and haunting – that make them one of the most interesting bands on the circuit today. Their virtuosity, inspiring material and heartfelt vocals generate a live performance not to be missed.

For further information, contact Glenn & Viola Walters Cultural Arts Center at 503-615-3485 or view us on the web at www.ci.hillsboro.or.us/arts/wcac. The Arts Center is conveniently located just two blocks off the MAX Blue line.
