Outdoor Vineyard Visits

When a living room becomes a concert hall! Jeremy Facknitz brings the magic to our house concert series, coming all the way from Colorado Springs in May. He has been delighting audiences with his unique brand of high-energy theatrical folk-rock-jazz for nearly 30 years. Heavily influenced by Ben Folds, Billy Joel, Elvis Costello, James Taylor, and the like, his music is a throwback to when singer-songwriters weren’t afraid to turn it up, look you in the eye, and play more than the same tired four chords. He embodies the soul of an old-time troubadour bitten by a radioactive rockstar.
John Apice of “American Highways” says “This is all far above the ordinary…a good time is guaranteed for all.”
John Barlass from “The Barrier” writes “Jeremy Facknitz is, indeed, a major talent – and, I can guarantee, like nothing you’ll have ever heard before.”

Inspired by masterful rock bands of the 70’s & 80’s, the Darby Brothers grew up listening to many of the songs still played on the radio today. Four brothers, from several different mothers, thrown together in a life journey to inspire and speak through music. They grew up together, went to school together, hang out together and share a passion for great music.
The Darby Brothers recreate epic songs from Journey, Zeppelin, Queen, Foreigner, The Doors., Hendrix, Petty and many more. We will get there at 2:30 to grab a couple tables in front of the stage.
