Two solo sets from two of Madison's best players..

Andy Ewen is best known for his work as frontman for Madison's psycho-bluesrockers Honor Among Thieves. Andy has also contributed his guitar playing to numerous recordings and live music projects. His solo work combines raw, passionate vocals and guitar playing with unique - often surreal imagery.

Richard Wiegel has been a fixture on the Wisconsin music scene for more than 30 years. In groups like the The Midwesterners, Johnny and the Hawaiians, Out of the West, The Swing Crew, Clicker and the Bowery Boys, Richard's guitar playing has always been exciting and stirring.

Now he has added solo acoustic performance to his credentials. Combining several genres of music, from rock to ragtime, blues to jug band music, jazz to rockabilly, Richard blends them semlessly into an entertaining show. Taking a cue from Chet Atkins, Doc Watson, and Mississippi John Hurt, Richard plays in the finger-picking style pioneered by these giants.
