Jeni Grouws: Songs from The Music House and The Saturday and Sunday Live Music Lineup
I’m not a fan of saying no to things, but when singer-songwriter Jeni Grouws asked to discuss her show at The Jewell on Capitol Saturday evening, I told her I just wouldn’t be able to do a full interview at this point as I was at capacity for time. Instead, I offered to have a quick chat and grab a couple of quotes.
Well, that chat turned into something much more like an interview, and I feel like I need to share the full conversation. So you can read that HERE and check her and a full lineup of Omaha songwriters and musicians on Saturday at Jewell on Capitol.
I am a big Lissie fan; I have seen her in Austin, New Orleans, Sioux City, and Omaha. Sadly, I will be out of town for this one. She doesn’t come through all that often, even though she lives in Iowa (last I knew). Anyway, the singer-songwriter will be at Royal Grove Saturday night, and I highly recommend attending. She puts on incredible shows.
The Wailers, featuring founding member Aston “Familyman” Barrett’s son Aston Barrett Jr., will bring the music of that legendary band and Bob Marley to The Slowdown on Sunday They will be celebrating the 30th Anniversary of Natural Mystic.
