3rd Tuesday Lunchtime Concert Series: Jesse Jones & Craig Butterfield--Folk Chamber Music In-Person
Jesse Jones & Craig Butterfield – Folk Chamber Music
Multi-instrumentalist/composer Jesse Jones and bassist/composer Craig Butterfield comprise a uniquely adventurous instrumental duo. Grounded in American roots music, jazz, world music, and the classical music tradition, Jones and Butterfield write and perform original compositions that could best be considered folk chamber music. The duo have released two recordings to critical acclaim, with a third recording of original music scheduled for late 2018.
