Yet To Be Gold + Krekel & Whoa!
February 13 @ 7:00 pm
An evening of fine songs by fine people: Yet To Be Gold (feat. Donna the Buffalo co-founder Jeb Puryear) performs at Citizen Vinyl on Tuesday, Feb. 13. Krekel & Whoa open. 7 p.m. show, 6 p.m. doors. $15 in advance / $18 at the door.
YET TO BE GOLD: Songs have been a treasured art form throughout all ages and all times. Be it to bring laughter through satirical verses, to cheer up and warm those near a campfire, to tell heroic historical tales, or to simply tell the stories of the day. They bring joy to those around the world.
But nothing brings more joy than friendship. Without it you may simply take your bow and quit the stage.
And here we have both… Friends playing songs. Gregor Sayet-Bone, Jeb Puryear, Jonas Puryear, Luca Greenspun.
KREKEL & WHOA: Multi-instrumentalist Jason Krekel started playing music in earnest in the early 1990s. In the college town of Boone, N.C., he immersed himself in an education of guitar, mandolin, bluegrass and old-time, and began performing with acts such as Snake Oil Medicine Show, CX-1 Blackhole Bluegrass Boys, and Larry Keel.
By the end of that decade, Krekel had established himself in the eclectic Asheville, N.C., music scene. Collaborators included Ami Worthen (Mad Tea Party, later known as Krekel and Whoa), Aaron “Woody” Wood (The Sufi Brothers), and Jay Sanders ( A.V.A.S). He also started The Screaming J’s and The Krektones, and joined forces with Seattle-based guitar legend Baby Gramps.
