JL Stiles and Doug Ellington
JL Stiles and Doug Ellington, longtime compadres in music will offer original songs and some early jazz, featuring the fingerstyle ragtime guitar and voice of Stiles and the magical trumpeting of Ellington along with some sweet harmonies. Doug is the great nephew of Duke and, like Duke, has a very broad diversity to his playing and writing, and make no mistake, he will tear the roof off the of the place. Stiles songs have old souls but takes it often surprising directions on his 6 and 12-string guitars where he creates a complete sound a la the old ragtime maestros with a single guitar. These two have toured together and played for years in this format.
