Jennings & Keller to perform at The Barnacle

As we were walking through the Mad Hatter Arts Festival last weekend, a friend said, "That sounds like Joni Mitchell singing." It wasn't Joni of course, it was modern day troubadours Jennings & Keller who were on the stage. We walked over to meet them when they took a break and were excited to see that they will be back at The Barnacle for an evening of live entertainment on Saturday, April 13, as part of the Barnacle Moonlight Concert Series.

“Songwriter’s songwriter,” Dana Keller, is a veteran pedal steel, dobro, and guitar player who has spent years performing with such luminaries as Vince Gill, Ricky Skaggs, Stevie Wonder, and The Allen Brothers, to name a few. Laurie Jennings Oudin has performed for many years on the stage as a professional singer and a former Shakespearean actress. Together, the duo has released four CDs and has received accolades and airplay from radio stations from coast to coast. They have traveled the country in their motor home, bringing their fusion of many different musical elements and eclectic style to audiences at festivals, cafes, wineries and house concerts. Along with developing a large and loyal fan base, they have earned a reputation for quality musicianship and expert storytelling.

Park in the neighborhood and use the Freebee shuttle service or stroll over to the pedestrian entrance. Admission is $10 for adults, $8 for members of The Barnacle Society, $3 for children ages 6 to 9, and free for children 5 and under. Please leave pets at home, but feel free to bring low lawn chairs and rolling coolers. Arrive early to choose the best spot to spread out a picnic blanket on the spacious front lawn and enjoy your own treats and beverages.

Purchase tickets at the gate beginning at 6 pm on and enjoy a performance from 7 to 9 pm.
