Troubaduo brings acoustic show to the Redwood Hostel

Posted by admin on Apr 18, 2009

As they make their way around the western United States, what better place for a "soul singin’ songwriter duo" to perform than surrounded by Coast Redwoods and the Pacific Ocean?

Traveling musicians Bryson VanCleve and Jill Marie will perform a free all-acoustic show at the Redwood National Park Hostel on May 18. Collectively known as Troubaduo, Jill and Bryson will play both original songs and songs by some of their favorite artists, such as the Rolling Stones and Johnny Cash. The show takes place either on the hostel’s ocean-view deck or around the woodstove, depending on the weather.

While their music has a folk/rock essence, the two bring their own talents together to back each other up on stage. Jill’s charismatic Sunshine Pop sound combined with Bryson’s high-energy soul-singing voice should make for a show that fits perfectly with the serene surrounding of the hostel.

Both artists have released CDs recently, and Jill Marie’s song "Season of Wishes" was chosen for the Make-A-Wish Foundation’s 2007 holiday campaign song. While the show is free, donations are accepted. Check out their videos for a preview of what you’re in for, which is a show you don’t want to miss.
