Neighbors In Need Concert This Thursday 12/9/10

Amazing Steve Davidowski's Christmas benefit concert returns Thursday, December 9, 7 p.m. at the Marshall Presbyterian Church. This mix of jazz, traditional, mountain and celtic Christmas music will feature fiddler Jamie Laval and bassist James Simmons.

Jamie is heralded as “One of North America’s finest practitioners of traditional Scottish music” (San Jose Mercury News) and “The next Alasdair Fraser” (Press and Post). The Asheville Citizen-Times writes, “One of the hottest fiddlers out there…this act has been turning heads wherever it plays.”

James Simmons' powerful dance with his string bass has delighted Madison County in past concerts with Steve.

Marshall's favorite Steve Davidowski is a pianist/saxophonist/flautist/

clarinetist. While living in Georgia in the 1970s, Davidowski was the original keyboard player in the southern fusion band The Dixie Dregs, and also performed and recorded with Vassar Clements and many others in Nashville. He is a master of jazz and is also developing a mountain music hybrid he calls Xenobilly.

Neighbors in Need is a Food Pantry and Crisis Fund serving Madison County. All concert monetary and food donations will go directly to Neighbors in Need.

Thank you to the musicians who are donating their talents and time!
