ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: SIMS DELANEY-POTTHOFF W/ CHRIS WAGONER – SITTIN’ IN FOR 40 YEARS!
Join Madison string legends Sims Delaney-Potthoff (mandolin, tenor guitar, guitar, vocals of Harmonious Wail) and Chris Wagoner (violin, mandolin, lapsteel, ukulele, guitar, accordion, vocals of Gaines & Wagoner) for an unforgettable, up-close-and-personal musical experience at Muso. This exclusive, interactive event peels back the curtain on decades of musical mastery, blending a live acoustic performance with a candid Q&A session.
Enjoy a rich tapestry of Americana, gypsy jazz, bluegrass, and acoustic swing rooted in the Madison music scene. Learn the history behind the music, their decades of collaboration, and their songwriting processes. Ask your burning questions about technique, gear, and life on the road as independent musicians. Whether you are a fellow musician, a long-time fan of the Midwest Gypsy Swing Fest, or simply a lover of raw, acoustic music, this evening promises exceptional artistry, wit, and community connection. Space is limited to preserve the intimate atmosphere.
Generous free will donation requested at the door for the musicians.
