Hubby Jenkins is a talented multi-instrumentalist who endeavors to share his love and knowledge of old-time American music. Born and raised in Brooklyn he delved into his Southern roots, following the thread of African American history that wove itself through country blues, ragtime, fiddle and banjo, and traditional jazz. Hubby got his higher musical education started as a busker. He developed his guitar and vocal craft on the sidewalks and subway platforms of New York City, performing material by those venerable artists whose work he was quickly absorbing. An ambitiously itinerant musician, he took his show on the road, playing the streets, coffee shops, bars, and house parties of cities around the U.S. After years of busking around the country and making a name for himself, Hubby became acquainted with the Carolina Chocolate Drops. He was an integral part of the Grammy award winning Carolina Chocolate Drops (2010 - 2016), as well as a member of Rhiannon Giddens band. Today he spreads his knowledge and love of old-time American music and history through his dynamic solo performances.
About Brian Gore:
Known as the “Guitar Poet,” Brian Gore’s heartfelt and evocative style masterfully blends Folk, Jazz, and Americana influences. The fingerstyle guitarist and singer songwriter’s performances are a double dose of insightful lyrics and pristine guitar.
Brian honed his craft in San Francisco during the fingerstyle heyday of William Ackerman’s “Windham Hill” and the revolutionary Michael Hedges. A pioneering guitarist in his own right, early on, he adopted techniques like multiple capos, slapping, tapping, and percussion.
“Gore’s strong, well-developed melodies and intriguing chord sequences set him apart from the myriad of steel-string fingerstyle guitarists who compose in open tunings.”
