BROTHERS SUN in Concert at The Cellar Stage

Joe Jencks, Greg Greenway, and Pat Wictor have formed the dynamic male trio called Brother Sun. Their harmonies and their lyrics tell what they are about:  warm as a campfire, stirring as a gospel church, rousing as a call to arms.  Through contemporary songwriting, informed by the deep roots of gospel, blues, and folk, the trio weaves a tapestry of harmony that is brilliantly fresh and yet familiar.  Imagine Crosby, Stills, and Nash with hints of the Dixie Hummingbirds.  In less than two years of touring nationally, Brother Sun's debut CD reached #2 on Folk-DJ, and they've played to standing ovations at Falcon Ridge, Kerrville, Old Songs, Philly Folk and numerous other venues.  With Grammy-winning producer Ben Wisch, they are working on their 2nd CD, scheduled for release in early 2013.  From three major points on the map - New York, Boston, and Chicago - Pat, Greg, and Joe have truly blended themselves into Brother Sun, a unique celebration of the amazing power of singing together.  “The real breakout artists [at Falcon Ridge] this year had to be Brother Sun . . .  who've come together to form a trio that's all about harmony - in their music and in their lives. Their joyful music making earned them a standing ovation in their mainstage set.” ~John Platt, WFUV.  “I just heard one of the best new songs of my life.  The song is called “Trouble,” and the group is called Brother Sun.  Three magnificent, male voices--together. Gives me the chills--in the nicest way ever!” ~ Gene Shay, WXPN. (www.brothersun.com)
