Songwriting duo to perform on Feb. 8
Matt Watroba and Robert Jones will present a Wisconsin Singer/Songwriter Series concert at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 8, at Unitarian Church North in Mequon.
Watroba and Jones have been musical partners for more than 30 years, since they hosted back-to-back radio shows on WDET-FM in Detroit.
The duo’s genre of choice is American roots music.
Watroba sings and writes songs of compassion, inner strength, humor and every day living. He was awarded “Best Overall Folk Performer” by the Detroit Music Awards in 2000.
Jones is an award-winning multi-instrumentalist on guitar, harmonica, mandolin, banjo, fiddle and ukulele. He is a nationally recognized storyteller who uses his speaking and musical skills to educate, entertain and inspire. At the heart of his message is that our cultural diversity tells a story that should be celebrated.
Tickets are $20 in advance or $24 at the door and $12 for students. A discount of $1 per donated food item to a maximum of $4 will be given at the door.
Advance tickets may be purchased from North Shore Bank in Grafton and Mequon and Vines to Cella in Port Washington.
