Description

Casey Dreissen With limitless energy, Casey Driessen’s unique creative vision spontaneously erupts on center stage. The set up is simple: One man. One fiddle. One pedal board. Mixing his signature percussive fiddle style with digital loops and effects, the GRAMMY-nominated fiddler builds each show layer by layer in real time in front of the audience. The result is a one of a kind experience that pushes the boundaries of musical genres and styles.

Casey Driessen is—like his music—inspired, unconventional and truly original. He has built a following as both solo artist and collaborator, touring the world with artists such as Béla Fleck, Steve Earle, Darrell Scott, Zac Brown Band, and Tim O’Brien. He is also a founding member of The Sparrow Quartet and never without a pair of red shoes.

JimBo Trout & the Fishpeople are a high energy, good-time band from San Francisco that has been together since 1992. They perform a musical gumbo made up of bluegrass, ragtime, blues, Western swing, Appalachian, rock and roll, New Orleans, honky-tonk, and more. But they are not a band that would let tradition stand in the way of a good time! JimBo Trout & the Fishpeople are known for their entertaining, energetic, and danceable live shows. The SFBOT show features JimBo Trout (guitar and banjo), Steve Neil (bass), Annie Staninec (fiddle) and David Phillips (steel guitar).
