The Gloria Faye Dingus Music Alliance is pleased to welcome the return of Danny Knicely & Jack Dunlap to Gloria's Listening Room. Danny & Jack first joined forces in 2016 as part of an apprenticeship program funded by the Virginia Folklife Program and the National Endowment for the Arts. Their nine months of working together resulted in the recording of their Wammie Award Winning album Chop, Shred & Split - A Mandolin Player's Apprenticeship, album of mandolin duets. Join us for an intimate rare evening performance where together again master mandolinist, Danny Knicely, and the amazing young Jack Dunlap will take listeners on a journey of songs that range from bluegrass to old time, to gypsy jazz and swing, polka to funk, and all the way to a tribute to South Indian mandolin player U. Srinivas. This will all be paired with many original duets, songs, stories, and memories from two master mandolinists. Tickets are $20 and advance purchase is highly recommended. Children 12 and under admitted free with parent or guardian. Doors open at 7:30 and the concert will begin at 8pm. Proceeds will go to The Gloria Faye Dingus Music Alliance, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to providing music education and instruments for all those wishing to learn and enjoy music.
