Jenna Lindbo

6115 Huntington, Lincoln (Wooly's Big Back Yard)

One part wise old woman and one part goofy little kid, singer-songwriter Jenna Lindbo is going to find a way to your heart. It’s only a matter of time. An Oregon native, Jenna travels the country, inspiring audiences from Asheville to Anchorage with her rootsy folk songs and infectious joy. Suggested donation $10-$15, students $5.

Rita Hosking

Rita Hosking
Friday, June 21, 7:00 p.m.
6115 Huntington, Lincoln (Wooly's Big Back Yard)

This California girl comes by her mountain-music sensibility with true authenticity, with original songs deeply rooted in her family's frontier experience. With an of-the-earth, gnarled voice that ranges from high and sweet to down-home and ferocious, she has a poet's way with words folks actually use, and an instrument that delivers the goods. Hosking has talent to burn.
